We now know that the former Russian Ambassador to London, Alexander Yakovenko, was part of a strategic plan to disrupt Western Alliances in the run-up to the invasion of eastern Ukraine and the illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014. Why did Farage lie about meeting him? 2/6

While PACES examiners are out there marking down candidates for not noticing a chest scar from 20 years ago, PAs are performing neurosurgeries and holding the Reg bleep without qualifications. Membership exams are designed to trap doctors at the SHO level and prevent them from…

"His spokesperson had no comment on the group’s links to consultants working with the novel nicotine industry, which were uncovered jointly with the Good Law Project." theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

On #WorldFisheriesDay just remember that half of global fisheries are overfished, and another 40% are fished to maximum levels. Big Fishing is emptying our seas of life. Eradicating biodiversity at a shocking rate. Time to #EndOverfishing & support thriving seas.

Sab has been beaten up and had cameras stolen at Mendip Farmers Hunt. Police are on their way.

Blackrock is one of the most powerful and utterly corrupt shadow banking outfits in the world. BlackRock has been criticized for investing in companies that are involved in fossil fuels, the arms industry, the People's Liberation Army and human rights violations in China.…

Still don’t get people who keep banging on about free speech continuing to have an embolism over Victoria Derbyshire asking Jeremy Clarkson a question about a farm.

Amazing that a load of alleged farmers went on their first protest and unwittingly exposed the fact they are mostly feudal Lords and have been since 1123.

It’s been over 20 years since the Hunting Act was passed, yet loopholes have allowed blood sports to continue under the guise of "trail hunting." Foxes, hares, and other wildlife are still being chased and killed because hunters exploit the law. That’s why we’ve proposed 'A Case…

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue. The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum. Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

Interesting that @wesstreeting will vote against the Assisted Dying bill because of lack of impact assessment. The impact assessment of introducing PAs/AAs is only beginning now after umpteen years. Shouldn't registration and rollout be halted until it concludes?

This is quite….something A PA on @LBC claiming her goal was to practice medicine & she didn’t believe she needed to be a doctor to do that. Why not? You have to be a lawyer to practice law You have to be a pilot to fly a plane You have to be a dentist to practice dentistry…

Similar warrants were long ago issued for Putin - leading to justified accusations of double standards. An important move this. theguardian.com/world/2024/nov…

The Eaton Estate claims to conserve wildlife, but its management serves one purpose: shooting. Grouse, pheasants, and partridges are raised and released only to be hunted. Meanwhile, native species like foxes are caught in snares or persecuted in the name of "conservation."

And how long do you think it’s going to be before water companies start massively increasing CEO basic salaries? Oops, it’s already happened, @SouthWestWater’s CEO got a staggering £300,000 pay rise just weeks ago and even that was after poisoning a whole town in Devon.

As everyone knows, there is no evidence that PA & AA care is as good, safe & effective as doctors (the gold standard) Why did you introduce them without any evidence base? Patients have died & been harmed because of your decision #nhs #patientsafety

🚨 BREAKING: The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant for crimes against humanity in Gaza. The US and UK governments must immediately suspend all arms sales to Israel.

Outcry on PAs and AAs from patients and professionals alike, Royal Colleges, and the BMA. The GMC is ploughing ahead with legitimising the role. The same “medical” regular with shares of a million £s in McDonalds and Coca Cola. It’s clear, GMC prioritise profit over patients.

Last night only THREE peers in the House of Lords called for public ownership of water. That was me, Jenny Jones & Natalie Bennett (Green Party) out of a membership of 827. Public ownership officially opposed by Labour, Tories & LibDems. Most people want to end the scandal.

It's a massive privilege to be a Peer and have the chance to challenge the Govt day after day. But also sometimes disheartening!
