@davidaglewis Makes my blood boil. I can't cope any longer with politicians creating their own narrative and then saying it is what the public wants. Who are these people that want others to suffer? I must live on a different planet because I've never found one of them :(

Everyone seems to be saying this is a "public priority" - I guess it depends what you mean. It's a priority for me that people in this terrible situation are treated legally and with humanity and love.

MPs call on government to review Healthwatch funding. An influential group of MPs has urged the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to review the Healthwatch funding model, in a new inquiry report published today. publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5803/cmse…

An interesting look at inequalities from across the Atlantic. Raises a question. Would you know when your trusted health professional is treating you differently? theguardian.com/science/2021/s…
