Just look at the difference in costs, and in outcomes, between US and UK systems of health care. Never let them tell you we need to move to that ghastly unfair and ineffective system. #SaveTheNHS #NHSPrivatisation
RT @joncstone: came across this interesting piece from 2017 on the differences in maternity healthcare in the US and UK. I had no idea only 8% of babies in the US are delivered by midwife https://www.propublica.org/article/why-giving-birth-is-safer-in-britain-than-in-the-u-s

@toryboypierce @EU This is supposed to "boost exports". But you might remember that most fisheries have had to stop exporting to Europe (because #Brexit), so they won't actually be able to sell the extra fish they catch will they? If there are any British fishermen left?

RT @johnwiththatcat: So Steve Barclay has the nerve to accuse NHS staff of having made a "conscious decision to inflict harm on people" after all the horrible things he's voted for? What a hypocritical prick 🤬

It looks like this pensions issue is aggravating the shortages of key senior professional staff by incentivising early retirement and reduced hours due to the so called pensions tax threshold being frozen. Hence doctor shortages.
RT @goldstone_tony: 3/ before retirement; doctors avoiding doing additional work or seeking promotion / senior roles and early retirement. I am sure Baroness @rosaltmann understands this subtelyy that annual allowance rather than lifetim…

Remember this when the government tells you there are lazy people below retirement age who are economically unproductive and should be forced back to work by making life unaffordable on a pension or a single salary.
RT @catherinerowett: If you're between 50 and 65 and you're not currently in a paid job, the post Brexit govt thinks you're a waste of space. But are you really economically or socially unproductive? Or are you doing lots of unpaid stuff like childcare…

RT @GreenPartyMolly: Brexit costs government £40bn a year in lost tax revenue
That is more than enough to pay all public-sector workers enough to keep up with inflation

RT @greenmattbfd: The government has announced a review of the #RIS2 project.
I can help:
💰 It's expensive
🚗 It will increase car dependency
🌍 It's bad for our environment
@TheGreenParty would cancel this and invest in #PublicTransport and #ActiveTravel.

RT @GreenPartyJack: At our conference earlier this year, the Green Party passed a motion to support the repatriation of cultural objects, and I’ll do everything I can to support this.
We really must stop putting off the much-needed serious debate about restitution. ?t=b0jCoPp2Nqa0cwFqI9kGmQ&s=19

RT @GreenPartyJack: I’m proud to see a Green minister in Germany leading on the return of 21 Benin bronzes to Nigeria.
However I’m ashamed the treasures were originally looted by the British, and that we are making no such arrangements to repatriate our own collection.

RT @greenmattbfd: How is the government continuing to let First Group and #TranspennineExpress get away with such inadequate services?
Is it because they are just as much to blame for the mess our #railways in the North of England are in.
