With mounting evidence of catastrophic damage inflicted on the UK economy by Brexit now being reported by UK media how much longer can Sunak’s Government pretend it’s not happening?
RT @Teresa_Peckham
@BenPBradshaw @UKLabour Yes, New Labour reformed the NHS and laid the foundations for the mess it’s in now. Internal markets, PFI and outsourcing are just some of the things they either inherited and continued, or introduced themselves. Diane’s right - Starmer will continue on to full privatisation.

Bit weird how the phrase "one bad apple" is used these days. Everyone seems to ignore the second half of the aphorism.
They keep saying that this cop or politician or corporate leader is "one bad apple" as though that means the rest are all fine.
But the aphorism is "one bad apple ruins the whole barrel"
It means the opposite of the way people use it all the time now.
@pre It also means you should be really vigilant about the "bad apples" and get rid of them as soon as you see them.

Why should they be dangerous to females anywhere?
The fear is from men pretending to be trans to gain access to women's spaces to harm women not from genuine trans people.
This is a far smaller problem than the danger to women everywhere from men/boys emulating Andrew Tate. https://twitter.com/williew97931391/status/1615119523987824642

@HackneyAbbott @fjfish Yes, Starmer is a Tory and he works in collusion with other Tories!

@cstross People forget Starmer is literally a cop (former Director of Public Prosecutions at CPS) so he's got a great career ahead of him as tool of the state

Incidentally, Starmer shows GREAT TALENT for political timing by having come out agin' the Scottish GRC bill *just in time* for the Tories to start using it as a club to attack devolution, thereby demonstrating to all Scottish Labour voters that Starmer—and English Labour—are Not Their Friend. Way to regain seats lost to the SNP over the past 20 years …!

I made a graph of all my past relationships.
It has an ex axis and a why axis.

Memo to the GOP: Please don't tweet about MLK's legacy while advancing policies that make it harder for Black Americans to vote.

Just a reminder that while @SteveBarclay has enjoyed a weekend off, roughly 280 people died waiting for help that either never came, came but was too late or came but was unable to offload to A&E in time.
Approximately 5 people died while he ate his Sunday lunch.

Have you noticed how "hard choices" always make millionaires richer and services for poor people worse.
@UKLabour @Keir_Starmer
RT @HackneyAbbott
Keir Starmer has joined the right in calling for the “reform” of the NHS. And we all know what that means.

Hello, I am a police officer, highly trained in crime prevention, detection and investigation.
Despite this meticulous level of training, I was totally unaware that my colleagues, The Rapist and The Bastard, who were repeatedly accused of sexual assault, were violent predators.

Rishi Sunak wants workers sacked if they refuse to comply with minimum service levels during industrial action - that is NOT the case in France, Italy and Spain https://twitter.com/peterstefanovi2/status/1615023297195802634
