I am Samantha Harding, great granddaughter of George Arthur Roberts: WWII fireman, founding chairman of the League of Coloured Peoples, WWI vet etc. I am also an NHS consultant eye surgeon. See our family website at www.georgearthurroberts.com

No Wes Streeting, the BMA is not acting like a cartel. It’s acting like a trade union. And frankly it’s disgusting to hear you talk like this while huge numbers of doctors can’t get NHS jobs because you haven’t created them, while millions of patients are on waiting lists🚨🚨🚨
Pinned tweet to honour the junior doctors coming out on strike today.

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

Is this the Grauniad's Marina Hyde, daughter of a 2nd baronet, that's now having a go at the Greens? It surely is!
Yeas, but she sold her soul a long time ago. She was part of the Grauns massive anti-Corbyn dog-pile. eg.

So now MTG is worried that Trump's hateful rhetoric can incite violence. I'm sorry she and her son have been threatened. But Trump has been doing this to others for years, and it apparently never bothered MTG. It's very MAGA to only care about stochastic terrorism when you're the target.
The president who watched Jan. 6 violence on TV and responded to Kevin McCarthy's desperate call from inside the Capitol with "well, Kevin, I guess these people are more upset about the election than you" doesn't think death threats against anyone even a little in his way is a bad thing?
Huh.
Huh.
Marjorie Taylor Greene claims she shared with Trump death threat she received that he incited, and his response was "extremely unkind"
