@HughEdw31897368 Why did they think that they are the most important item in the world for top news coverage

The BBC are revelling in this BBC presenter story. It means they can provide saturation coverage where we learn absolutely nothing. There is no scrutiny of the government. #bbcbreakfast #bbcnews #bbcnewswatch

@CathieW1lliams @1adass @pollytoynbee @guardian @NHSConfed Yes , when will the penny drop that NHS working conditions could be significantly improved by social care investment

@1adass @pollytoynbee @guardian Hearing from ADASS Yorks and Humber region yesterday of phenomenal increases (over 30% since 2019) in nos of people helped home from hospital. @1adass @NHSConfed

.@pollytoynbee @guardian helpfully uses @1ADASS data to show increased requests for adult social care and support because of pressures in the NHS. Underlining that what happens in one affects the other. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@adamjlent @RichardnotatKF In general I find a poverty of vocabulary indicative of a paucity of intellect . Just saying ….

By their local government careers shall ye know them? cratus.co.uk/the-liz-truss-…

@Williams20T @guardiannews Well, and the fact that the most senior decision makers are working under the influence of alcohol

Guardian front page, Monday 20 December 2021: Johnson and staff seen at No 10 event in lockdown

“New Zealand has recorded only 25 deaths from Covid-19 so far. Taiwan has recorded seven, Australia 909, Finland 655, Norway 550 and Singapore 29. These countries have largely returned to normal daily life.” Compelling. How did we get it so badly wrong? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

A wonderful article by one of my favourite management/ leadership writers

Despite best efforts of captain, Easyjet cabin crew ignored behaviour of covidiots - taking down masks, swapping seats, pushing to disembark. Suggest you avoid . I will now

@BBCTheArchers @WilfScolding @PeterLeslieWild Thank goodness ! Have found it utter drivel . I still can’t understand why it wasn’t possible to produce something including more than one character working from home. The rest of the broadcasting industry has managed it.

Well these lot look happy to be back in #TheArchers studio! @WilfScolding @PeterLeslieWild #HollieChapman

@GailBriers1 That’s brilliant and so well deserved

I’m honoured and very appreciative, thanks everyone

@RichardnotatKF Yes , I still can’t fathom why it’s beyond the Archers team to produce interactive dialogue via social media like the rest of the world.

Much prefer #TalkingHeads to #TheArchers monologues. Alan Bennett is peerless.

Well written, Peter

Seems a good day to RT this..

@DominicRaab I wonder what Mr C would advise in a situation where someone in opposition had done this ?

It’s reasonable and fair to ask for an explanation on this. And it has been provided: two parents with Coronavirus, were anxiously taking care of their young child. Those now seeking to politicise it should take a long hard look in the mirror.

@campbellclaret Exactly

Very nicely put and I am sure he will remember those nurses for the rest of his life. But it cannot be overlooked that others have died because they were not properly protected. And the NHS has lost many nurses and doctors because of govt policy on immigration and on Brexit 1/3

@IanHunterdotcom Thank you. Stay safe x

Don't bin them! Every garden centre, please distribute instead. e.g leave them outside garden gates. Especially where it looks like the owners should welcome them. It's easy to tell. Leave a note and ask for a donation. Let's be creative about this... bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

President Trump and the coronavirus. A terrifying tale of how NOT to handle a pandemic in one short video. Watch and weep.

@DrAdrianHeald Couldn’t agree more

Thanks for the #clapforNHS but after a decade of voting for a party who always stripped the NHS and tried to sell us off, it seems to be a bit of an empty gesture. Please vote in the future for a party who supports the NHS, if you mean that clap seriously

@GailBriers1 @NWBoroughsNHS An historic day indeed. Your contribution has been invaluable and unique. Best wishes for the future xxx

It has been an emotional day after 37 years in the NHS with @NWBoroughsNHS. I’m overwhelmed by the number of people who have taken the time to send positive messages. You’ve made me really special. Love to you all ❤️
