I am Peter Gummer, Baron Chadlington, and David Cameron’s former constituency Chair. I have been kicked out the Lords for selling the Govt £24m of useless PPE during COVID. I am the face of modern Britain.

Peter Selwyn Gummer, aka Lord Chadlington (who?) quietly resigns the Tory Party and will retire from public life. Actual Story : Another Tory #Covid #PPE Fraudster, caught and busted for £24 million of PPE never delivered, by his company, that he lobbied for.

@flyabout7 That's beautiful

@kelvmackenzie Grok is this true

The Times reports HMRC data shows there is now more people over 70s paying income tax than the under 30s. The young love AI - Always Idle

Please don't share this video of @RobertJenrick slagging of @Nigel_Farage - it might add strain on their relationship 😬

Apparently, Nadhim Zahawi doesn't like this 12-year-old article being shared, so please don't share it. theguardian.com/politics/2013/…

You'd think he'd have deleted this first:

@John_Dabell You never fail to amaze John. Well done for all you do and for all of us followers that you inspire to be better people.

You don't have to be at your strongest to make a difference. 7 bags of litter collected in and around my local nature reserve this morning.

@John_Dabell You never fail to inspire John. Keep going. We all need your strength and optimism

My right lung is still not fully inflated, & I've still got months of recovery, but I managed my longest walk since leaving Critical Care: 5.78 miles. The last time I did that was 2 months ago. My RIG feed is also still settling down, but pushing myself was worth it!

@John_Dabell Rest easy John - onwards and upwards 💪

No NG tube!!! Very sore and painful, but I'm all rigged up with my feeding tube in my stomach. Staying overnight for observations and medication.

This is ABC News reporter Rachel Scott! She ask Donald Trump the right questions about releasing the full video of that strike on Sept 2nd and Trump started melting down and lashing out at her, calling her an obnoxious person! RETWEET if you stand with her!

@John_Dabell Keep going John, we are with you every step.

Another day, another walk, another reminder that even with tubes, pain, and setbacks, I’m still moving, I'm still breathing and still finding small pockets of peace between storms.

@John_Dabell As always, John, we are all in awe of you. Im sure the Marvel franchise will be in touch soon to discuss a movie! @Marvel

It's a soggy doggy and squelchy welchy kind of day. My dodgy lung was glad of the fresh air. Hetty less impressed and her compass was facing a different direction!

@Matt_Pinner Ada

WHAT was your grandmother's name... I'm looking for a vintage girl's name. Not Betty!

@John_Dabell I've run out of words to describe your strength and attitude to your situation. I hope you know how many people you inspire. All the best John.

Hospital update: my lung’s not fully inflated yet, so the chest drain remains for as long as it takes - progress is progress, even when it’s slow and takes its own steady pace. Big effort this morning. Healing isn’t linear - just grateful for every breath that works a little harder. Please continue to share and support. Your help is making all the difference. Thank you to all those who have, you're amazing! gofund.me/97a9696c4

@John_Dabell Wow how did you manage that - amazing John

I'm going to show folks. 2 weeks ago today, I was in ICU with a collapsed lung and multi-organ failure. Life-saving expertise, care and support from so many talented people means that today, I'm walking around my local ponds with a chest drain and feeding tube - managed to do 2.5 miles so I'm happy with that. Yes, there are plenty of challenges ahead, loads, in fact, but I owe it to my lifesavers to get back on my feet. My family need me and I need them.

@John_Dabell John you are amazing and will keep fighting. You know how many of us are behind you. Ignore all idiots xx

My posts at the moment might not reflect my daily positive narrative of the last 5 years but I am far from done. I'm receiving incredible support on here. Unfortunately, a tiny minority haven't, calling for me to 'be put of my misery' which I find abhorrent. Those people are blocked. I never give up. This will take time. I have the will to live and I will.

@John_Dabell You are amazing John 👏

One week ago I was on a ventilator and hooked up to various gubbins and now catheter is out, and I have one less chest drain. Lung not fully inflated yet and big decisions have to be made about my feeding as it is currently going through my nose and possibly permanently so. I have one chest drain. Hate being on the ward.
