The US military has 22 sites in the UK.
Every day long range US bombers are taking off here to drop bombs on Iran.
This is a rogue state carrying out war crimes, and threatening more.
The UK Government must grow a spine - and stop our bases being used for this war.

🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP: Iran has until tomorrow at 8 o’clock to make a deal. After that, they’re going to have no power plants or bridges.

“The UK already has fewer doctors per head than almost every comparable country. No other nation is responding to that gap by designing doctors out of patient care. They are training more of them."
The destruction of the NHS is being engineered.

Tonight I had dinner with 2 friends. Both surgeons. Both leaving the UK for consultant posts where “Our skills are actually valued.”
Continue treating Drs as replaceable commodities and soon there will be very few Drs.
@wesstreeting
We need their skills here.

“The American ppl are very much like the children of a Mafia boss who do not know what their father does for a living & don’t want to know, but then they wonder why someone just threw a firebomb thru the living room window. This is exactly who we are”

The BBC should make all of the Peel Sessions available to stream on the Sounds app. They're recordings of incredible cultural significance and shouldn't be left to languish in a vault.

John Lennon: “Working class people around the world have no innate desire to go to war with each other. They have to be conned into it by the sociopaths who will profit from it.” #JohnLennon #War #Peace

@PhilSmithIsBack The end of regulated specialties in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧. The Royal College of Physicians was founded to end quackery in 🇬🇧. The General Medical Council will go down in history for brining it back.

@mehdirhasan @LordWalney Of course he won't, he'll be hoping GMP are repeatedly dragged before a kangaroo court in Parliament until they fall into line, just like happened with WMP.

Hi @LordWalney will you be apologizing now that the police say there was no evidence of ‘family voting’ in the by election?
GB News@GBNEWS
‘The problems run far deeper.’ Former Labour MP Lord Walney says that ‘family voting’ is an electoral offence, and that authorities should ‘uphold’ these rules and not ’turn a blind eye’ to them. 📺 Freeview 236, Sky 512, Virgin 604

@barneyfarmer In any case, how on earth would he know either way? The entire Mandelson episode proved what a credulous chump he is, it's precisely because he can't imagine it that These Things Keep Happening

@MerrynSW Why does it have to have a point?
That suggests somebody somewhere was in a position to decide whether the AI genie got to leave the lamp.
Nobody is in charge, and the genie was always going to get out.
English
Will AI make you happy? It's possible. But right now it looks like it means mass unemployment - which in turns means a hideous expansion of welfare and hence the size of the redistributing state. That will make no one happy. So what's the point? bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
