One of these men owes £500,000,000 to HMRC.

The other mistakenly ticked a box on a form which meant he received 30p per week more in benefits over 6 years.

Which one do you think was harangued, convicted, lost their home, driven to depression and attempted suicide?

Why has the ‘15-minute city’ taken off in Paris but become a toxic idea in UK? theguardian.com/cities/2024/ap…

Streeting spouting nonsense again.

It’s the private sector that EXPLOITS the NHS. It uses its A&Es & intensive care units and doctors and nurses, trained only by the NHS. The NHS picks up the pieces when private procedures go wrong and when private patients no longer profitable.

Stuart BBC Newsnight In any other north European country, the policies on Corbyn's manifesto would be seen as moderate left/ centre left.
You've been gaslit into believing that Corbyn was far left. This idea is clearly ridiculous.
Don't be a silly sheep. Think for yourself. Look at the policies.

👉🏻 “Survey of 21,374 residents in 18 UK cities found 56% in favour & only 17% against moving money from road building to active travel & public transport. 58% support more cycle paths along roads, even if it removes space for cars, only 22% are opposed”. transportxtra.com/publications/l…

On Tuesday, a Jewish group had its account frozen by a state-owned German bank. It wouldn't be the first time.

I want a Labour Government, but this clown has to go ASAP. Taking advice from Alan Milburn and Paul Corrigan shows a shocking level of ignorance of where the NHS has gone wrong, and is quite frankly an insult to NHS staff.

I think you’ll find The Beatles have a stronger claim so Beatle lines or beelines for short? ‘Taking a Beeline to school’ 🤔

With 1.5 billon car journeys every year of less than 1 mile (!) this is such an important partner to ensure people have more transport alternatives, especially locally. 👏👏 Active Travel England National Highways

The Tory government has established an architecture of control and surveillance over British Muslims, while granting legitimacy to what would traditionally have been regarded as the far right. My article for Middle East Eye on Gove and extremism:

IMHO, 150min/week of “aerobic” exercise are insufficient for long-term longevity and metabolic health gains/maintenance…I would say that ~300min/week should be the goal.

Furthermore (and very important), the concept of Zone 2 training is NOT about cardiorespiratory…

On 16th March, 1968 Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson Jnr was flying helicopter recon for an attack on an alleged Viet Cong-controlled village in Vietnam.

As the attack developed, Thompson realised he was witnessing something something else:

A massacre.

He decided to act. /1 🧵

All you need are appropriately placed vans with the accompanied manic headlight flashing to those on approach... to highten the threat of perceived detection amongst the problem group...Momentarily changing behaviour & gaining full limit compliance where usually there is none.

Well done Mark Drakeford for doing the right thing on 20mph.

The car-uber-alles people always react angrily when challenged, it's their default setting. ULEZ, 20mph, whatever.

Which is not a reason to give them an inch of ground.

I was deeply honoured to be invited to be a keynote speaker at this year's Royal College of Physicians annual conference.

But after last night's I can no longer, in all conscience, give my speech. I feel duty bound to share in public my reasons why.

Keir Starmer's fiscal rules mean Labour is committed to maintaining Tory austerity.

It's the lack of investment which has wrecked this country.

Labour is damning us all to yet more crisis, insecurity and disaster 👇
