We need to get away from this weird attitude that the country's sole purpose is to serve the needs of the NHS. It's a poorly performing health service, not a religion. Instead of this fawning nonsense, we need a serious debate about how healthcare is delivered in our country.
No, Gary from Blackpool with 1 GCSE, two brain cells and three teeth, Dr Ahmed the surgeon did not steal your job.
He’s right, you know.
I have decided to declare Friday, 27 October, a day of fasting, penance and prayer for #peace. I invite the various Christian confessions, members of other religious, and all who hold the cause of peace in the world at heart to participate.
Bloody hell. Women play football, prove they’re actually good at it, now they have to argue if someone kissed them when it was caught on camera with loads of witnesses. It’s EXHAUSTING
Imagine you're forced to flee your home because of war or famine & the only safe person you know is a relative in the UK. There's currently no way for you to apply to come here. If you make your way to your family you are called an illegal migrant and will be put on a barge that…
It's today, today, today! Today the horrific refugee ban gets its second reading in parliament and we must be there in numbers to tell them #StopTheBill #RefugeesWelcome! 💪💪💪 Join & share if you possibly can! #r4today
Lineker is Freelance but here's the BBC reply to a complaint about Chris Packham, also Freelance
In 2011, Jeremy Clarkson called for striking workers to be "shot in front of their families". He continued to present Top Gear for another four years. After criticising plans to criminalise asylum seekers, Gary Linekar has lasted three days.
As a minister & human being, I must speak out against the government’s policies. Refugees & asylum seekers need to be welcomed & offered hospitality. “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
250 yrs ago we chose to transport people to Australia because they were vulnerable enough to steal a loaf of bread. Today our government wants to deport others to Rwanda because they are vulnerable enough to seek safety on our shores. Have we learned nothing?
I honestly can’t quite believe the government have put this out - how do they think people who need access to the UK’s modern slavery support enter the country if not illegally?!
Dear Home Secretary please retract your inaccurate claim that 100 million people could qualify to claim asylum in the UK.
Kate Forbes is both next level and just like many other Jesus followers - navigating faith in a world that has less understanding of what is means to be a Christian. A 🧵
Over 9 million people (bbc1 and iplayer) watched the Lionesses beat Spain last night. Build it and they will come ⚽️⚽️⚽️
I have read all of 3 percent of this and @jessphillips is now my absolute favourite person in public life. This is the sort of PM we need. amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B08HSN…
To whomever it may concern: after the Farah story, please don’t start saying ‘think how many other future heroes we might be deporting to Rwanda’. This policy isn’t disgusting because they may be exceptional people. It’s disgusting because they’re people.
