Dear BBC, next time you interview Jeremy Hunt about the coronavirus, could you ask him why hospitals are so underfunded and overstretched?
And when you interview Gordon Brown, could you ask him about his Private Finance Initiative, which exposed hospitals to impossible debts.

In this photograph, suffragettes "waste police time".
#ExtinctionRebellion protest against 30 years of government inaction on the climate emergency - patent & on-going non-response to conventional campaigning.
Now, 300 scientists join the movement:

ONE MINUTE ACTION!
A front-page poll on YouGov today is about support for XR. These polls can be very influential, shaping policy thinking & journalistic approaches. At the moment, 'strongly oppose' is winning. Let's change that! Pls share widely ๐โ

Freedom of expression and assembly are fundamental rights, protected by domestic and international law.
And, the courts have made it clear that a protest is not unlawful just because itโs disruptive.

It ain't over 'till it's overโ๐ผโ๐พโ๐ฝโ๐พ.
We refuse to bequeath a dying planet to future generations by failing to #ActNow.
We act in peace, with ferocious love of life in our hearts. We act on behalf of life.
Our #InternationalRebellion continues.

The Queenโs Speech just confirmed the Government intends to proceed with deliberate voter suppression in a blatant attempt to rig the result of the next General Election. RT this if you want people know the truth!

Getting myself arrested tomorrow just got a whole load easier.
The police have banned all #ExtinctionRebellion protests in London.
To me, this truncation of the right to protest intensifies the moral case for taking action.
My plans have not changed.

The police have been brow-beaten by commentators, prodded, provoked, castigated - and now they react with an unseemly fierceness, breaking the law, to save face.
Peaceful protest is permitted in the UK. Tonight, the @metpoliceuk have broken the law.

If you are middle class, they call you a champagne socialist
If you are working class, they say it's the politics of envy
If you wear leather shoes, they call you a hypocrite
If you don't, they call you a hippy
Everyone, apparently, is disqualified from challenging the system

The police have seized our pink pillows! We repeat, our pink pillows have been seized!
The pillows are neutralized, but the real threat of mass extinction & societal collapse from #ecologicalbreakdown continues

@metpoliceuk break down door of Lambeth county court to arrest rebels for the possession of gazebos. Seriously.
This a movement of people, not gazebos. We are peaceful, we are threatened, everyone is.
