Be afraid. Be very afraid.
After the appalling way heโs handled Coronavirus, we definitely donโt want Boris Johnson to have more control over our NHS.
Please RT if you donโt either.

The #DomesticAbuseBill is currently going through Parliament. @KGadhok's letter to @pritipatel @ukhomeoffice highlights the links between #domesticabuse & communication needs & how @RCSLT members can support people who've experienced it & their children.

Johnson must go. There is no debate. His incompetence is crystal clear. The first rule of governance is competence. You simply cannot let tens of thousands of people die because of indifference, because of waiting and seeing, because of lack of preparation. Johnson must go.

For every hour we spend agonising over societal crimes of the past, we should probably allow a minute or two to wonder what we're doing now that will be similarly condemned a hundred years hence. Climate, obviously; animal rights, likewise. What else?

Covid-19 spreading too fast to lift lockdown in England. Agree with John & clear science advice. TTI has to be in place, fully working, capable dealing any surge immediately, locally responsive, rapid results & infection rates have to be lower. And trusted theguardian.com/world/2020/mโฆ

Dominic Cummings has now admitted repeatedly breaking the lockdown rules.
Of course, he thinks he has an excuse - that those rules didnโt really apply to him - but we absolutely do not agree.
Please RT if you donโt either.
