#gobacktowhereyoucamefrom tonight is sickening. From using the most vulnerable to host open conversations about their plight. To the ‘get them out’ man using their toilet for a poo when underneath their house is an open sewer thus literally adding to their woes. These bigots won’t change their minds

The reason Disabled People don't have jobs in the UK is because.

1. Almost all Employers will not hire a Disabled Person, they will always pick a non-Disabled person if they can.

2. The NHS is not treating Physical/Mental Illness so people don't get better.

Deal with this.

Fascism doesn’t arrive in uniform overnight. It arrives with suited politicians, one piece of legislation — or executive order — at a time.

compassion fatigue. I don’t blame them. Their job day and night must be soul destroying. Not criticising them AT ALL. They and their patients deserve more. Elderly, frail,dementia sufferers, mental health disorders, substance abuse, medical conditions and trauma cases. The situation is hell

I went to a&e with my adult son. It really was hell on earth. Waiting room rammed,
a&e dept packed. Very unwell people on chairs for days receiving treatment as no trolleys/ beds. No where else in the hospital to treat them. Some staff kind, all staff got job done- most seemed to have compassion

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.

We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.

This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.

A new study has found that almost half of children in Gaza wish to die, as a result of the trauma they have been forced to endure.

Every single supplier of arms to Israel has blood on its hands — and the world will never forgive them.

NHS short staffing associated with at least 4,000 extra deaths annually.

High staff turnover & reliance on agency workers lead to severe consequences, esp. in A&Es.

Stable, well-staffed workforce needed for patient safety & quality care #ResuscitateEmergencyCare

Ditched voluntary pledge to improve animal welfare.

Corporate pledges mean nothing when it comes to profits.
