🚨 EXC: Antony Higginson has fought a one man war against the NHS establishment to get answers after his wife was given 6 toxic doses of paracetamol. Now the actions of 41 doctors and nurses are being re-examined after a coroner blasted their honesty: thetimes.com/article/dc5e2b…

It pays to follow the money: Farage and his friend Trump are exposing the cynical fraud of populism. My @theipaper column on politicians that serve plutocrats while claiming to be fighting for ordinary folks against the elite inews.co.uk/opinion/trump-…

EXC: One of Nigel Farage’s Reform candidates has spread racist bile – even declaring white people “the master race”. Joint investigation with @hopenothate exposes Stuart Prior for a slew of hateful comments. Reform said it was “looking into” posts. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/r…

Three years ahead of schedule we've delivered on our manifesto commitment to deliver 8,500 more mental health workers in the NHS. That means more support, quicker and closer to home. This Labour Government is keeping its promise to rebuild the NHS 🌹💙

“NHS England missed chances to train more radiologists this year by announcing its funding too late. This mistake must not be repeated, or there will not be enough radiologists to interpret scans and patients will continue to face agonising waits for diagnosis.” @RCRadiologists
The Royal College of Radiologists@RCRadiologists

In today's @thetimes, @DrDLittle warns a radiologist shortage is delaying cancer diagnosis. "More scanners are important for earlier cancer detection, but without more radiologists to interpret extra scans, backlogs & delays will grow." Read the letter➡️bit.ly/423g9u8

Also: gifts aren’t taxable. So £5m tax-free personal “gift” to Farage will be the the biggest single sum accepted by any UK politician in democratic history. Reform is lobbying for crypto tax cuts, forcing BoE to hold crypto etc. A scandal hiding in plain sight.
Steven Swinford@Steven_Swinford

Nigel Farage has been referred to the Standards Commissioner after @Annaisaac revealed that he received a £5million gift from cypto billionaire Christopher Harborne before he was elected in 2024 Farage said that he used the money to fund his private security. But the Commons rules state that new members are required to register any benefits - including gifts - that they received in the 12 months prior to their election The Tories have now referred Farage to the Standards Commissioner, saying that Farage must 'come clean'

Our research shows that average wait times for genetic testing for people with MND have dropped from 18 months to around three months. The decrease follows more than a year of engagement by Association teams with NHS England, raising concerns about the impact delays in genetic testing have on people with MND.

The sharp rise in youth inactivity since the pandemic corresponds very closely to the deterioration in young people’s health since 2019. In 2019, 14 per cent of 18-24-year-olds said they had a long-term health condition which limits their activity; by 2025 this had risen to 21 per cent.

@ShaunLintern If a surgeon is assessed as dangerous to patients unchaperoned, I fail to see how that is compatible with continuing work as a surgeon in any capacity.
