Footage shared with ITV News has revealed “warzone” corridor care at an NHS hospital. The videos filmed this week at Queen’s Hospital in East London appear to show elderly and vulnerable patients left for days in cramped passageways instead of wards.

“I am announcing the UK's additional £10m to support energy infrastructure repairs in Ukraine.” ~ Yvette Cooper. Yet more taxpayer funded money funnelling to Ukraine while UK energy infrastructures rot & pensioners lose their winter fuel allowance.

I am going to write to my MP right now to demand that he votes NO to the LAMMY JURY DEMOLITION BILL. Will you do the same? #NotInOurName #SaveOurJuries #NoToLammy - get it trending. The jury system is our heritage, our culture and our canary in the mine against state…

The media for whatever reason are refusing to inform the public of what's going on in our NHS. Seem to be in league with @wesstreeting who prefers to demonise Dr's. This is an orchestrated strategy to pave the way for PAs/ANPs/ACPs, substitute doctors who've not studied medicine.

@Peston my daughter is a junior doctor. She tells me there is a huge backlog of UK trained doctors that cannot get jobs in the Uk. Waiting lists are getting longer not shorter as politicians claim. What’s that about? Maybe investigate and report

I wonder what it would cost for a period of, say, 3 yrs, to: (a) open 10 more courts; (b) appoint 60+ judges & re-engage 40 recently retired; (c) hold evening court sessions with willing lawyers, judges & jurors. Has anyone tried to find out before binning the jury system?

This is Judge Tracey Lloyd-Clarke, today she has sentenced 24 year old David Morgan to 20 MONTHS in prison for some posts on X. The same judge let off a CHILD RAPIST called Reese Newman because she said the prisons were overcrowded! This is British Justice.

We got a referendum on joining and leaving the EU, which we only joined in the '70s. How about a referendum on destroying the right to trial by jury, which we have had for 1000 years?

The real cause of the courts backlog is years of underfunding, not the use of juries. The Bar Council and Criminal Bar Association have made this clear. I asked if the govt would publish the evidence base for the removal of many jury trials.

🚨David Lammy has confirmed that he is removing the right to trial by jury for serious crimes, including: sexual assault, theft, possession of a weapon, burglary, and fraud. In one hit, a foundation stone of our justice system has been destroyed. Labour brings shame on the UK.

My wife had an MRI scan a few months ago - I noticed the NHS unit said “InHealth” / Vista Health - after googling I discovered its owned by 🇺🇸 hedge funds called KKR. Outsourcing and the management required of outsourcing is bleeding the NHS dry.

Perhaps unsurprisingly - this isn't getting the traction it deserves. Please help by retweeting if you care about learning lessons from the appalling mismanagement of the COVID19 epidemic in the UK. We had FIVE TIMES the death rate of East Asian countries.
