“The worst & most terrifying & degrading experience of my life”.

18-year-old Rianna Cleary begged for help, laboured alone, bit through the umbilical cord with her teeth - & was left alone with her dead baby.

Utterly obscene from the prison service.

A thread for the ultra-wealthy.

If you are wealthy, you may think that if the U.K. switches from an NHS-model to a private model of healthcare it will either a) be better for you, or b) will not affect you.

My brother did a foundation degree in his late 30s, he went on to get a first in his Bachelors degree, aced his master's degree and now has a great job at the University. I cannot stress enough that this saved and changed his life and the life of his kids.

The UK state pension, worst in the world.

But still too high so must retire at 68, also the highest in the world.

But that’s not enough so must defund social care and the NHS so you die sooner.

You are worthless to them, unless you make them money.
