RT by @catherinerowett: Surgical operations to be cut in England as £1bn call to cover cost of strikes fails.
NHS waiting list, 7.8m.
Govts bailed out banks, handed £1trn QE to speculators. £13.3bn to rail, £5bn to internet companies.
But there is no money for the NHS.

Rishi Sunak, not welcome in

thank you.
Not welcome at Bacton selling deadly offshore drilling licences.
Not welcome selling poppies when he's currently supporting a genocide in the Middle East.
Gross.

RT by @catherinerowett: 🚙 SUVs are now the most popular type of car you can buy in the UK.
⚠️ They have higher emissions and are more dangerous for other road users.
🅿️ Whether petrol, diesel or electric - #SUVs also take up too much space.
🚫 It's time to pass on the true cost of SUV ownership.

Planting 850,000 trees out of season isn't planting 850,000 trees is it? It's planting 850,000 dead trees.
Doubtless a "biodiversity net gain" claim assumed living trees.
