@SeleneA92651315 @KarlTurnerMP Mine was 7 weeks and it was the GP wanting to see me. I only have stage 4 cancer so I guess any issue could rectify itself one way or another in 7 weeks.

@KarlTurnerMP I made an appointment via an online triage system they are trialling. Three weeks to see a GP. I don't see that as easy.

Wes has made it easier to see a GP but can’t get to see the PM. 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Stitchly_Shop Much cheaper on Amazon

@LawyerYouKnow Really looking forward to this! I watched the trial and got the overwhelming sense that Faust stood no chance. It seemed rigged from the start and the defence had their hands tied behind their backs. Well done Peter- justice needs this kind of scrutiny.

Starting Friday, May 8 on YouTube — We’re excited to announce a brand-new Friday “LIVE” series where we’ll be looking back at — and breaking down — the Faust trial from start to finish. If you watched this trial live, we want to hear your take too! If this case is new to you, watch it for the first time with us too — we’ll be diving into the details, the drama, and the decisions that made this trial one people still can’t stop discussing today.

@MrsGeek22 @Poppy_yyyyyyyy Try having a serious illness and see how it goes. I have stage 4 cancer, had to wait 7 weeks for a face to face appointment for the GP to change a medication ordered by letter from my oncologist.

@Poppy_yyyyyyyy It's soo bad. They wanted my son to take a full day off school during exams to wait on a triage call for a fungal nail infection. We can't get basics health care like prescriptions, without it being a performance.

I’ve spent the day enjoying the services of our wonderful NHS, just to be hung up on by a receptionist who relished in telling me they wouldn’t prescribe the medication they’ve given me regularly for several years. This was after an appointment with a medical student (I was told it would be a GP) that was an hour later than the time I was told to be there and he wanted me to stay there for an indefinite time to see an actual GP face to face. I ended up crying tears of frustration so they told me to phone the Samaritans. I don’t want to phone the Samaritans, I just want my very easily prescribed medication.

@politixintheuk Keep focus on the cost of living? When are you going to start? I have no idea what you are focusing on but it isn’t the cost of living.

Keir Starmer vows to keep focus on cost of living! PM says it's "really important that we as a government keep our focus on the cost of living" as he pledges to protect the British public from the impact of the Trump War.

@DavidLammy In your dreams!

Haringey is on a knife edge. Tomorrow, every vote will count. Vote for a safer, greener, fairer Haringey for your family and your community. Vote Labour🌹

Youtube, creators are BEGGING you to review their demonetized channels. Hopefully you see them.

@Davidbi14014500 @SueJonesSays I don’t get PIP but am on UC I pay full rent, full council tax and pay for a dentist. I do get free prescriptions as I ‘only’ have stage 4 cancer and all cancer patients get free prescriptions- working or not. You clearly do not have a clue what really happens do you?

@SueJonesSays All things that paid for when claiming benefits 1.Rent 2.Council Tax 3Dentist 4 Prescriptions

I'm 63 years old. After working hard for many years, I now claim PIP as I am seriously ill and disabled, I also claim Universal Credit, since I am not yet eligible for a pension. I can tell you that no-one in my situation gets 50K per year, that's pure, inciteful, utter bullshit.

@PaulFosterMP Are you not ashamed of the half hearted efforts the HoC did to produce such a flawed, dangerous and reckless bill? Far from filibustering, the HoL had to clear up the absolute mess your party landed them with. Who’s fault is that?

The Assisted Dying Bill will be scrapped is next week, despite the will of the elected House of Commons. Because of filibustering by a small number of peers in the unelected House of Lords, the bill will fall at the end of this session when Parliament is prorogued. For me, this is not what democracy should look like. I spoke to the @ObserverUK about why I would bring it back, despite having opposed it: observer.co.uk/news/politics/…

@Lara1273 @LabourRoyall Did I say the supporters of AD are lacking intelligence? No, I did not- you did. I said the creators of the bill lacked intelligence. In producing a bill that was so flawed and needed so much scrutiny and so many amendments doomed them to failure.

@erasmus_hazel @LabourRoyall Disagreeing with a bill is one thing—suggesting those who support it lack intelligence is another. Many thoughtful, informed people support assisted dying. It deserves a serious argument, not insults.

Great article Kim I am so ashamed that The Lords let you down and, most of all, that they let down the people who want to die with dignity theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@CMochan We absolutely should- it’s the only thing that stands against an inept, corrupt government that really should not be allowed out on their own, never mind making laws.

We shouldn’t have unelected bodies blocking legislation in the 21st century

@RHughesPhD76721 Have ordered 2, as I do with all your books. One for me and one for the chemo unit at my local hospital. Amazon has excelled its self by releasing in the UK at the same time as USA - we are usually a little behind.

I am overwhelmed...its like Christmas and my birthday and a day of Russell leaving me alone all in one big happy moment....the first hour of sales has been phenomenal. I can't thank you all enough. It went on sale four hours earlier as I was sent an email and then another one as there were people searching for it evidently in other countries in earlier time zones so Amazon went ahead and let the cat out of the bag. Lol. A few people can't see it and it may be because, and this is humbling, after you put the title in the search bar the book is not always at the top of the search results....there are usually two different tomato sauce sales ads and then the book...so scroll down...lol...also Amazon rolls books out in some markets more slowly than others Love to all...and lets keep this going! I am thrilled. This is your success too because you guys plugged it for me endlessly as I was getting my body parts examined for a plethora of doctors who had nothing else to do. Lol

@PutneyFleur Mmmm, but I have a seven week wait to see my GP face to face- it ok, I only have stage 4 cancer.

Patients are being seen sooner. Labour has delivered 5.2 million extra appointments, with waiting lists down by 370,000. We are getting the NHS back on its feet.

@isabellaslink @sophielouisecc Would you like to swop? The ‘ludicrous’ amount I got this month for ‘sitting around’ was £246.00. You too could ‘sit around’ in the chemo ward like I do and dream of the time you worked so hard- when you get stage 4 cancer, then you will really know what struggling is.

@sophielouisecc It's painful realising that we work so hard and they just sit around and get paid ludicrous amounts, that we'd have to struggle to earn.

Many of us are at work today on a bank holiday, knowing full well that people on benefits have just got a bonus of £6000. I would have to work around 500 hours to get an extra 6k - they don’t have to do anything Why do we even bother

@charmai82132528 @GMB @PaulBrandITV @kategarraway Is that the same woman who said older people who don’t have the Covid vaccine should be left at home to die if they get Covid? That pargon of virtue? Not much support for suffering then was there?

@erasmus_hazel @GMB @PaulBrandITV @kategarraway dreadful remarks toward a woman who is suffering and still standing up for many who agree with her, and are grateful for her tremendous courage and support for those also suffering… we are grateful precisely because she has the ear of Keir Starmer

Dame Esther Rantzen has claimed that most people in Britain “want and need” the assisted dying bill and has spent the last few years campaigning for the bill. She tells @paulbrandITV and @kategarraway that the bill is 'about choice.'

@mtpennycook All those ‘good’ things wiped out by increases in council tax, water prices, tax on business and the increase in fuel - well done!

As a result of decisions made by this Labour government, today sees: 🌹A 6.6% reduction in the energy price cap. 🌹A Minimum Wage and National Living Wage rise. 🌹NHS prescription charges frozen. We're delivering for working people.

@LondonLabour @LucyMPowell @jamesmurray_ldn @DavidLammy @jreynoldsMP Are you high? Drunk? NEVER EVER AGAIN!

Vote Labour on Thursday 7th May to: 💷 Drive down the cost of living 🏠 Take on the housing crisis 🤝 Stand up to those seeking to divide us

@Bounce_BackLoan @BelshamJan @Ed_Miliband @RachelReevesMP But only if you sign in to the GOV-UK one sign in .

In a pathetic, last ditch attempt to make it look like the sordid Gov are "saving people money" during the day @Ed_Miliband @RachelReevesMP are going to be rolled out to promote a new "Fuel Finder" page on the Government website that they claim will save people £40 a year
