Good morning, all.

Another day, another column from the The Telegraph positively filled to the brim with performative cruelty and a position so out of touch it could make your eyes water.

The culprit today?

None other than the inillustrious Isabel Oakeshott.

Big surprise…

The Health & Care Bill is back in the Commons tmrw.

It divides the NHS into 42 areas led by Integrated Care Boards which - incredibly - private companies will be allowed to sit on.

I believe private companies should *never* get a say in how the NHS is run.

Pls RT if you do too

My message to Londoners:

I love our city. Being Mayor is the privilege of my life and the best job in the world.

If I'm re-elected, my plans will make London fairer, safer and greener for everyone.

If you love London, vote for it.

Maybe you Tories should stop making us ill

“If there is anything more disgusting than the sight of a half-billionaire rolling up his sleeves for a “benefits crackdown” in the middle of a cost of living crisis…I can’t think of it”

My thoughts exactly!

I hold no card for Labour and their appalling Brexit policy and their gimmicky NHS bollox, but even I would vote Labour in Tees Valley to get Houchen out.

Then waste no time in holding Labour Leadership’s feet to a very very hot fire. It would owe us and they need to know it.

Appalled to see proposed welfare cuts for people with mental health problems. Journalists - if you need a quote, email [email protected]

The conservatives have plunged millions into poverty and have decimated the NHS. Now they’re blaming their victims🚨

Planning to vote anti-Tory?

StopTheTories.Vote is HOW to do it most efficiently.

But also, be counted so the anti Tory vote isn’t ignored by the next government like it usually is.

So join us and register as a tactical voter too.

This is a movement building power.

Council letter tells a 56-year-old woman due to be evicted on 1 May that she should be able to 'function reasonably well' if she ends up on the streets.

This is terrible.

And the govt is set to criminalize rough sleeping.

What has the country become?

The most difficult bit of my work - which I care about desperately - is managing my mental health. If I found myself unable to do it, being told to 'pull my socks up' would do the very opposite of helping. And so it us for many of us. People need more help and less hate.

David Cameron spending OUR money on luxury jets.

Cameron & Greensill Scandal
Cameron & offshore trusts
Cameron promoting Chinese company assets
No consequences

If anyone thinks politicians like Cameron are in it for the good of 'the British people'

Give. Your. Head. A. Wobble.

Pensions are 'unsustainable', the NHS is 'unsustainable' and now disability benefits are 'unsustainable', or so we are told. What's really unsustainable is this Tory government.

The Tories are freaking out about losing seats in all elections.

Why else is Sunak on a marketing drive?

Let’s really make them worry.

Just by showing up.

Here's how the new Brexit incoming border checks are likely to play out...

1. They will cause initial chaos, of an extent and duration still to be determined.

2. Things will eventually settle into a steady state that's worse than the current situation, but magically 'priced…

It’s obvious that decent people putting up refugees in their homes will hide them to prevent their deportation to Rwanda.

Think. We now live in a country where people must be hidden from the authorities just as Jews were once hidden from the Nazis

How far our country has fallen

'The private sector has grown steadily: the combined turnover of private hospitals, GPs & dental has increased almost 4fold since 2010, from £1.3bn to £4.9bn in 2023, data from the ONS shows'

Really important & thorough piece on where we are now headed.
