Re @freddouglass765 I wasn't talking about risks to the UK or the world. I was talking about the fact that there's been a stream of anti-woke propaganda and populism coming from America, from the UK, from Russia, from Belarus: all of it trying to undo the Council of Europe's post-war consensus.

If you can't supply enough drinking water for people living at the houses you're supposed to supply you aren't providing the service required. It's time we removed the water supply from private companies and reversed privatisation of vital infrastructure.

RT @RScowler: @Haggis_UK A complete abdication of duty.

Directly opposite to what their voters would want.

What the Hell are they even doing?

RT @gilltaylor: @Haggis_UK Utterly disgraceful. This is not about blocking a bill. The bill has been passed, with your amendments. This is about the Government abusing Parliamentary procedures to reintroduce by the back door measures the Lords have rejected. 😡

@BenPBradshaw @suesmall This is a ridiculous attitude that fails completely to see what is under threat here. It's democracy itself.

RT @GreenJennyJones: Why will @UKLabour not vote against the Govt this evening? Or at the very least, allow its peers a free vote? A few rebels will join me, and the @LibDemLords, plus a few Crossbenchers. That small brave band is trying to protect our UK democracy. t.co/i4uq4i9Cs3

RT @Squashedhedgi: @catherinerowett ME/CFS causes est. 180 000 prime-age people to be off work & pre Covid, was the largest cause of long-term absence from school in kids.
It’s highly debilitating - with both physical & cognitive disability. For many = severe & chronic but the MRC invest just £1m/yr in research

Yes, you're likely to get back or neck pain if you work in bed, but what's causing people to have to try to work in bed? Some people who are long term sick also try to work a bit.

What do you reckon is the main reason for vast increases in people unavailable for work due to long term sickness? You maybe know some?

RT @dave43law: Farcical comments on sickness
"The ONS has blamed mental health issues in younger people and people suffering back and neck pain, possibly due to home working, for the increase."

Err how about NHS waiting list of 7.4million

@PaddyMcNally11 @PaulbernalUK Seems such an easy and obvious solution, that you wonder why they are struggling to come up with it.

We need to end the rule that says you can't tell the truth in the chamber, and we need the lies in the chamber to result in disqualification *for life* from both houses.

Calling your own parliamentary privileges committee a kangaroo court is like Trump blaming his own appointed judges for corruption just because they pass just judgement. What little we have left of protection for our democracy is being undone before our eyes by Conservative MPs.
