Funding the NHS while increasing the role of the private sector is like trying to fill a bucket of water while drilling holes in the bucket. It is what successive governments have done and it is patients who suffer. theguardian.com/society/2026/j…

Buy back Royal Mail, 76% want public ownership It would cost around £3.6 billion Put households on the board and raise the standards This 500 year old institution worked well until it was privatised, it should not be owned by a Czech billionaire independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

Incredibly revealing thread. The public does not want the assisted suicide bill to be brought back. In every constituency, the public does not agree with bypassing the House of Lords to force the bill in to law. It’s time for the bill’s supporters to admit defeat.

Medicine is in crisis. Hundreds, if not thousands, of doctors are looking to leave the NHS because training jobs are scarce, pay has been eroded, & their work is not valued. This crisis sits at the Government’s door. That is why doctors are going back on the picket line.

More gaslighting, this isn't about easing pressure. Drs are being fazed out, replaced by underqualified PAs/ACPs/ANPs. Now this, sabotaging our access to a Dr. What a slippery slope. You can expect better care in a 3rd world country. @jamesmurray_ldn

From the autumn, more pharmacists in England will be able to prescribe medications as part of an effort to speed up care and ease pressure on GP surgeries and hospitals. Independent prescribing will help patients get better care, closer to home. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

SO much talk about men identifying as women and TOILETS. What does the guidance REALLY mean?! It means: Men OUT of women’s rape crisis centres Men OUT of women’s prisons Men OUT of women’s sports Men OUT of women’s changing rooms And YES - Men OUT of women’s toilets!

NOW ON 1.2 MILLION VIEWS. Are you listening @Keir_Starmer? More than 3,200 lawyers including 300 top barristers and retired judges have called on you to drop your plan to restrict the right to trial by jury. 30 organisations representing victims of violence against women and girls have written to the Justice Secretary urging him against curtailing the right to jury trials. Trial by jury is a cornerstone of our democracy and an essential safeguard against authoritarianism. The government has no mandate to restrict it - a move which will put us on a path toward authoritarian justice. It’s not too late for you to listen to the thousands of voices of victims, judges, barristers, other legal professionals and academics who oppose this. Please now do the right thing and abandon this blatant act of constitutional vandalism. @RobbieRinder @KarlTurnerMP @thebarcouncil @TheCriminalBar @Kirsty_Brimelow @Anna_Soubry

Privatisation of the NHS. NHS spends record £241m outsourcing scan analysis to private firms. Private sector focused on profit extraction, not service. Money buys less. Public purse depleted. NHS capacity not expanded. Why would it train staff? theguardian.com/society/2026/m…

MPs are blaming regulator OfCom for the disaster at Royal Mail. This is a red herring. Ofcom can’t fix Royal Mail. To fix Royal Mail, let’s take it into public ownership and run it in the interest of households, not the profits of a Czech Billionaire.

@AndrewGeorge_ Please ask yourself if anyone can freely opt for assisted dying when their palliative care needs are not being met. If you can’t square that circle, you need to sort palliative care first. I’m a physician just over the river from you & am happy to meet any time.

It’s extraordinary that the BBC consistently platforms men upset they have to use gender neutral toilets instead of women’s toilets over the female rape survivors who have been unable to access a female-only support group, in relation to the EHRC guidance. It says it all, really.

My thoughts on the @EHRC guidance laid yesterday; this is not about non-existent "rights". It is about the safety of women - mothers, sisters, wives, daughters. We men need to hear their voices. Virginia Woolf : "Though we see the same world, we see it through different eyes". My intro on @TimesRadio yesterday: Where I live there are two different routes to and from the tube station. One, let’s call it Acacia Avenue, is quiet and residential. The other, London Road, is a busy major route with lots of traffic. At all times of the day, I automatically head for Acacia Road. It’s just much nicer. The women in my family, on the other hand, will never willingly make that walk after dark. They live with an anxiety that most men find it hard to imagine, and frankly, rarely think about unprompted. Last year 739,000 women were sexually assaulted in Britain. Virtually all such assaults - nine out of ten - are perpetrated by men. One in four women have been attacked at some time in their lives. Acacia Avenue is exactly the sort of place in which most women fear that they become vulnerable, and they are right. As the author Virginia Woolf once wrote " Though we see the same world, we see it through different eyes". I think this is the right context in which to understand the furore over the guidance being laid today by the government, over the meaning of the words man and woman when it comes to providing services and facilities in workplaces. Many men think this is about a rather arcane dispute about who gets to use what loo. For their mothers, sisters, wives and daughters, it isn’t. In a previous life, as Chair of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, I had a hand in writing this country’s equality laws, in particular the 2010 Equality Act. It never occurred to any of us that there could be any confusion or dispute over the meaning of the words man and woman. But it has taken a decade of campaigning, a Supreme Court judgement and now hundreds of pages of guidance to settle the issue. This is not about so called trans rights, which are completely unaffected by this guidance, since no-one has ever had the right to walk into a changing room reserved for teenage girls. What it does mean is that women and girls are guaranteed the protection they deserve, and that their safety, which we spent half a decade drafting law to ensure, is protected. But the whole business illuminates some serious issues in our politics. First that many of our institutions, in spite of the fact that they always knew what the right thing to do was, decided to ignore the fears of their women customers and employees, under pressure from noisy pressure groups. Instead, the people who were supposed to be the grown ups behaved as though the law said what campaigners wanted it to say, rather than what it actually said. They settled for what they hoped would be a quiet life. In a democracy, there’s little point in Parliament deciding anything if the law is then made an ass by activists intimidating bosses in companies, schools, universities and the media into doing something different. Second, at the heart of the campaign to undermine the Equality Act is an idea that we specifically rejected in 2010, so called self-identification. That is to say, that it should be up to the individual to decide whether they have what’s called a protected characteristic - are you male or female, are you black or white. The problem is that self-ID would destroy the operation of any law against discrimination. Look, it would almost certainly have been to my advantage as a young man to self-identify as a handsome, white public schoolboy. None of those things is true of me. And at various points I am pretty sure it’s been to my disadvantage. It is certainly statistically likely to have been to my disadvantage. But according to the logic of those who say that self-ID should be the rule and that anyone should be able to decide for themselves whether they are male or female, black or white or Asian, were I to complain about racial discrimination, it would be difficult for anyone prove that I’d been discriminated against because of my race since anybody to whom I’d lost out could just tell the courts that they too were black. I know that sounds like Alice in Wonderland but you can google the case where a chap, both of whose parents are white, insisted he should get money from the Arts Council because he so identified with the black struggle that he considered himself black, and everyone should accept his point of view. In the United States and Brazil exactly such outlandish claims have been made and people rewarded to the disadvantage of people actually born into minority families. I have even been told about firms who, when reporting their gender pay gaps have put men who just happen to like wearing dresses at weekends - nothing wrong with that, let me be clear - into the female column and told their women employees that they really haven’t got anything to moan about because statistically they are paid equally, and they should get back in their box. So today’s guidance isn’t just another tiresome chapter in culture wars. It is , I hope, a halt to the efforts to undermine one of the most important pieces of legislation on the statute book, by people who, for their own reasons, would prefer us to be living in the 1950s world of Mad Men.

Teenage girls raped at knifepoint whilst filmed. Judge Nicholas Rowland said: “None of you need to go to prison… I should avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily.” The justice system’s response was to protect the rapists. Not the girls. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/m…
