The strikes this week have not been caused by doctors.
They’ve been caused by a Government that has taken healthcare professionals for granted for far too long.
Please RT if you can see through the Government spin and back the doctors.
All they want is fair pay.

This 3 minute clip from 2021 is still being widely shared. It's helpful if you want to understand how Gary Lineker feels about the issue of refugees, about his relationship with the BBC - and about the idea of the BBC telling him what he can and can't tweet.

Thanks to this Government, junior doctors can now make more money serving coffee than saving patients.
From tomorrow we take #JuniorDoctorsStrike action so we’re paid what we’re worth.
ALT An image of a person in scrubs offering a coffee cup. “Pret a manger has announced it will pay up to £14.10 per hour. A junior doctor makes just £14.09. Thanks to this Government you can make more serving coffee than saving patients. This week junior doctors will take strike action so they are paid what they are worth.”

You were brought down because in a matter of weeks you lost the confidence of the financial markets, the electorate and your own MPs. During a profound cost of living crisis, you thought it was a priority to cut tax for the richest people in the country

Tory MP Edward Leigh claimed #expenses of £2,332 for heating last year and £2,474 the previous year.
Retweet if you think he should pay his own utility bills.

Classics theft alert. Student travelling by train from Western Isles to Oxford had her suitcase stolen, with clothes etc. What's really important are her uni notes. If you see it (abandoned by thief?), please take it to police or a station. Key areas from B'ham Int to Banbury
