Just deleted the @bookingcom.bsky.social app. They were already on the boycott list, and now this....https://www.instagram.com/share/reel/BANXaoBsrz
It looks like I'll be booking accommodation through other agencies or none.

Did you vote Labour in 2024?

Is this what you voted for?

Everything's so horrendously awful isn't it.

I mean, it's beautiful outside, sun is shining, I've just had a lovely run in bright crisp air.

But, you know, as soon as you tune in to any media.... gahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!
And then you have to look away again just for your sanity. How's everyone coping?

Just 65 full time equivalent GPs have been recruited* using ARRS to fund & recruit some of the 3000+ (FTE) available to work
It is too restrictive & not working
To ‘Bring back the Family Doctor’ @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social needs to fund GP Practices not PCNs

Yet another firm which has been awarded #NHS contracts working on deadly AI weapons. ⬇️

Companies like Faculty AI and Palantir that specialise in war, destruction and death should not be anywhere near our public health service.
British AI startup with government ties is developing tech for military drones
Exclusive: Concerns raised over role of Faculty AI, which has worked with NHS and government safety body

Conservative MP Alex Burghart, whose leader stood on a stage yesterday to defend Jeremy Clarkson and James Dyson's right to hang on to their multimillion pound inheritances, now furiously complaining about the Government handing pay rises to public sector workers.

Important context here:

● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares)

● "a big farm" is 217 acres.

Now let's see who's angry:

● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres
● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres
● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres
● Dyson owns 36,000 acres
A message from a REAL farmer who hasn’t been brainwashed by the Tories, wealthy landowners and the right wing media👇🏽

for some reason I’ve remembered what Jeremy Clarkson, who said he bought land to avoid inheritance tax, said on live TV about striking public sector workers (extra marks for use of ‘us’)

Could not agree with this more. Do not give in to the malignant normality no matter how many others accept it.
Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.

This stuff is SO good. Such a shame they've been bought out. #coffeesnob

Privatised Social Care has meant that they are making £45,000 per child in profit every year.

£45,000 stolen from every child in care, that you have to pay for, for the profits of billionaires who steal from orphans.

Privatisation needs to die.

I can recommend this. I find it really diverting. Pretty sure this podcast is a book by the way @joe-solo.bsky.social
'Welcome To Joetown'- The Joe Solo Podcast.

Tonight's instalment takes us back to my teenage bedroom as the young Joe grapples with the rudimentaries of his first brand new second-hand guitar.

Our hospitals are full to the brim as so many people who are ready to go home cannot get home due to lack of care availability, or accessible housing. The knock on effect means no space in wards =no movement in A&E

Did you know there are areas of the UK where health visiting services are now run by Virgin not the NHS

That's honestly absurd
