Only 50k of the 750k who volunteered for Govts NHS volunteer scheme have been asked to do tasks. Hundreds of thousands of volunteers frustrated & vulnerable not getting help they need. Everything this Govt touches..,

@catethetwaate @UKLabour So it’s the voters at fault. Interesting!

@PatMGlass @UKLabour That's what happens when people don't vote Labour. We end up with another tory gov't. Next time, how many on the left will do the same. Like the millions of voters we lost under Blair.

It happened again today : walking my dog & stopped by an 80yr old man. Said he had never missed a vote & voted @UKLabour all his life. Did not vote in Dec 2020 cos he could not vote for Corbyn & Pidcock. Said he was deeply sad that we now have a Tory MP. Happens every day!

@grantshapps can find the money to support privately owned ferry companies but refuses to properly support the @My_Metro for people in the NE @MartinGannon002

@lukey_stanger @UKLabour I am not going to comment on individuals but in my view we need to properly & honestly analyse what happened here in NWDurham in 2020 & start again from scratch if we are ever going to convince former Labour voters to vote for us again

@PatMGlass @UKLabour Was Pidcock a hardworking constituency MP Pat?

@coyleneil There is a seriously hard job of work to do here to win back the seat of NWDurham to @UKLabour. We need a completely fresh start with none of the baggage from 2020 if former Labour voters are going to vote for us again

People who would normally back Labour who could not support us in December. Must never happen again. We can now rebuild under Keir but no one should be complacent about the depth of the challenge left behind by his predecessor and his off-putting outriders.

@martinjude66 @HeyAdora3 @UKLabour Yeah whatever!

@martinjude66 @HeyAdora3 @UKLabour Whatever!

I’m now beyond furious. Weeks of meaningless negotiations. They told us we’d find out what support we’d get this Wednesday, then it’s Friday. Today they put out a press release saying we’ll get something but we’ll not be told what it is until next week. It’s complete contempt.

@martinjude66 @UKLabour I told him that

@anthonypainter I believe in aspirational targets but they must be backed up with realistic milestones & both the will & the means to achieve them. They have to work & deliver the required outcomes not tests for the sake of tests or to save politicians blushes

Sad that this needs to be said, but in light of an orange, perennial populist, it does: PLEASE DO NOT DRINK OR INJECT DISINFECTANT, it will KILL YOU! External use is external use ONLY, your body is not a worktop!

@mrjamesob Not being a sociopath isn’t really enough.

24 April 1885 | Pole Józef Woźniakowski was born in Krakow. A lawyer. In #Auschwitz od 25 July 1942. No. 52338 (political prisoner) Executed by shooting on 11 October 1943.

You kept thinking that Trump couldn’t really be as stupid, dangerous & corrupt as he seemed because all of the people cheering him were looking at the *same* man. Even some previously sensible people. Classic Emperor’s New Clothes scenario. I still can’t get my head around it.

Clement Attlee on Building the 'New Jerusalem', 1951 "Let us go forward into this fight in the spirit of William Blake: "I will not cease from mental strife/Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand/Till we have built Jerusalem/In England's green and pleasant land". #StGeorgesDay

@George_Osborne It is too late for the Govt to try being straight with the public & having a proper, grown-up conversion. A failure to plan, incompetence, avoidance & down right lies has led to the loss of any trust in this Govts handling of the crisis, now or going forward

Sturgeon’s approach is right: an open discussion about the hard tradeoffs we face living with the virus for the foreseeable future. UK Ministers refusing to discuss the lockdown in public while briefing ideas to ease it in private can’t last. Time to treat the public like adults

Let’s never let #BorisJohnson and the public forget that he suggested a call for ventilators should be named ‘Operation Last Gasp.’
