MPs have taken over £2.3m from private healthcare, exposed by Every Doctor campaign.

Meanwhile at Epsom Hospital, porters & cleaners are told there’s no money for basic NHS pay.

Let's make sure we've got the basics covered and defend our NHS.

Donald Trump said he would “take a look” at deporting Elon Musk after his former ally renewed criticism of the tax and spending megabill.

I'll be speaking at this emergency demo tomorrow night.

Government ministers are touring the TV studios refusing to say that starting an illegal war is wrong.

If they won't use their voices to condemn America & Israel's actions - we shall all do it for them.
