Tory peer Michelle Mone bought PPE from China for £46m and sold it to the NHS for £122m. None of it was fit for purpose

Apparently Boris is not a 'complete clown'. Yet another thing he's failed at.
In which case, he’s a massive liar, massively thick or massively both. His taxi is well overdue.

This man had to give up his dog to the Humane Society due to undergoing a lengthy hospital stay. One of the nurses found out and immediately went to the shelter to adopt his dog. She brings him to visit daily and will return him as soon as the man is well enough to go home
I don’t make NY resolutions, but if I did ‘let cup-a-soup cool first’ would be up there 😫🔥
This might be one day when Boris doesn’t have a party

Television gets Hogmanay wrong every year, when the solution is right in front of them. Just put Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse in front of a roaring fire with some whiskey and let them talk through the bells. About life, about ageing, about the past year, about anything.

🩸 In the area of mental health - an often neglected topic in treatment of #MDS patients - there is still a lot of room for improvement, says Ana Mrčić (@Hull_Zagreb ): vimeo.com/874002099 #bloodcount #thinkmds #MDSWAD
This is me. I’m a survivor of #MDS Today is our awareness day. Please share these common symptoms of #bloodcancer and get the message out for #MDSWAD This knowledge can and does save lives.
🩸With #MDSWAD just around the corner, please take 30 sec to watch 𝐄𝐦𝐦𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞'𝐬 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 - she explains what urgently needs to improve in healthcare for #MDS patients & what she considers the biggest issues: vimeo.com/874010338 #bloodcount #thinkmds
When I got sacked 3 days into a job for napping at reception (I was the receptionist) I wish they’d let me do a speech listing my achievements before quoting a fridge magnet and leaving.
"I donated stem cells for a patient living with blood cancer when I was 17. The entire process from signing up initially through school, and then 6 months later donating 4.72 million stem cells, was brilliant and super easy. I felt so well supported." Rob, you're a hero! 💚
How embarrassing Liz Truss mistakenly read out the leaving speech for if she’d successfully served an entire term as Prime Minister, rather than the one where she was forced to resign after six weeks for being a disaster.
I disagree with Rishi on pretty much every issue but a part of me is elated that someone who looks like me has become PM. Didn’t think I’d be this emotional about it. Never thought I’d see it in my lifetime.
If a General Election is not happening, then I am ready for a decent stretch of boring politics.
Back in 2013 when diagnosed with MDS, I had not got a clue what it was. To be told the prognosis was a 5-10 year life expectancy, Lynn & myself were totally devastated 😢. Luckily 9 years on with regular medication my prognosis is still 5-10 years❤️. I am one of the lucky ones 🙏
Today is marking #Myelodysplastic Syndromes #Awareness day. Do you know what this is? Neither do most patients when diagnosed. Some are not clearly told it is a form of #bloodcancer If you know someone affected by #cancer, help us and RT this. mdspatientsupport.org.uk/malignant-diag… #MDSWAD2022
