It was great to see the Clean Air 4 Kids campaign showcased in Baroness Linforthβs speech.
@CleanAir4KidsUK was set up by @erbrooker after her son was diagnosed with cancer & she wanted to ensure heβd be in the healthiest possible environment at school.

Following govt's bluster yesterday about bathing waters a quick reminder as of this morning every single stretch of river in England designated as a bathing spot has a "Do not swim" advisory posted.
You have been warned.

Look at this below @bphillipsonMP @wesstreeting @bbchealth @Peston @BBCNewsnight @RachelReevesMP @SteveReedMP Surely the best way to reduce transmission of illness round families. @MayorofLondon has started implementation in some areas. Why donβt you implement in all Schools?

Ventilation works. Do you want to reduce the number of times you and your kids get sick? There's an easy solution here:

Itβs concerning to realise how much was known about the importance of ventilation to reduce Covid transmission, even back in 2021.
And yet, 3 years later, there has STILL been no concerted effort to improve ventilation in the major hubs of transmission: SCHOOLS & HOSPITALS.
6 Jan 2022
Six hundred and twenty days after SAGE first mentioned ventilation in schools.
Eighteen months since they warned to sort it before winter.
The governmentβs approach to ventilating childrenβs classrooms isnβt just late.
It is incompetent, complacent, and inadequate.

The Government should be investing properly in treatments for Long COVID.
Far too many people left in this situation: read Darren's story. ππΌ

This time last year I lost my job due to #LongCovid.
Unsurprisingly it was an extremely difficult time.
I'd worked for the NHS as a Learning Disability Nurse for 20yrs.
Long Covid ended my career.
It also drastically altered my life.
Some reflections π

Please in 2026 start improving air filtration in Schools @bphillipsonMP @wesstreeting @RachelReevesMP @SteveReedMP and please urge use of air purifiers @BBCHughPym @Channel4News @mrjamesob @BBCRosAtkins

All data, including this latest report reflecting the current flu outbreak, shows that illness is the main driver of pupil absence.
Labour MPs canβt keep punishing kids for being sick! They must protect kids in schools - air filters now! And stop these cruel attendance policies.

βStaff will be doing all they can to keep the NHS running and to protect patients.β
Doing all they can to *protect* patients?
Really?
Will they all be wearing FFP3 masks to avoid getting infected & then spreading that infection to clinically vulnerable patients then, Wes?
The BBC report included a glimpse into life on the front lines at Leicester Royal Infirmary.
Unbelievably, despite being inundated with flu patients, there was barely a facemask in sight⦠not even a surgical mask⦠even when in close contact with confirmed flu patients.

Would help if proper mitigations were implemented in hospitals and schools @wesstreeting @bphillipsonMP @SteveReedMP
Unbelievable that this Government does not take prevention ffp3 masking and clean air seriously @UKLabour See below!
βDoctors say the crisis unfolding across hospitals this winter is not an unavoidable 'act of natureβ, but the direct result of political inactionβ
βThis is despite clear recommendations set out in the Covid Inquiry which specifically criticised the lack of suppression measuresβ

Looking to give the children in your class some responsibility and teach them about indoor air quality?
Want to reduce the amount of illness in the last week of term?
Would you like to stay well so that you can celebrate Christmas with your family?
