This is as true today as it was 75 years ago. RT is you agree Aneurin Bevan, the founder of the NHS, was an absolute legend. #NHS75

We love you NHS. Thank you for 75 years of amazing service and dedication.

@Michael_Thawe @macmillancancer 💯 agree!! It is not rocket science

@macmillancancer This story is so symbolic of how politicians have become dishonest in the fundamental way the NHS is being resourced. Just pay the staff well, invest in quality technology and care that will save lives.

“I rely on my scans. I shouldn't be ringing up my team begging for my appointments.” Jules was diagnosed in November 2021 with stage 4 lung cancer, which has since spread to her spine and pelvis. As her cancer is incurable, she relies on her three-monthly CT scans to keep her informed about her prognosis. She continues to live life to the fullest, but constantly feels she has to advocate for herself to get the care she needs, leaving her feeling angry and frustrated. “I am living life heightened where I'm so sensitized to my appointments being cancelled, and so anxious that my phone is going to ring with another cancellation. It’s affecting everybody around me; my family, my friends, my son, they're all suffering. I have the disease in my body, but they are on the same journey with me. Governments across the UK needs to listen to us.”

Repeated government failures have contributed to hundreds of thousands of people waiting too long for vital cancer tests and treatment, putting tens of thousands of lives at risk across the UK.

@Cobratate @Morpheusresist @GretaThunberg Bro what have you done… you took the bait and put THIS on the internet

"You are making people want to kill me. It’s not just a tabloid, it’s not just some story, you are making me scared… And you’ve created it for what? Because you’re bored or because it sells your papers or it makes you feel better about your own life?" —Meghan, Duchess of Sussex

@slutforpisces @janky_jane Hang on a second, your Twitter name is “SLUT for Pisces” please exclude yourself from commenting about “negative “joking”” altogether MAYTE! 🐸

@janky_jane All I'm getting from these comments is that Ireland (and sometimes Scotland and France and definitely Australia) sound really hard to live in. That level of negative "joking" commentary when you're expressing yourself isn't funny. It's harmful.

Props to anyone who tries to be fashionable in ireland i wore a red beret once in waterford and someone called me super mario
