Here’s the video in which Vote Leave promised shorter A&E waiting times once we left the EU. Now, six and a half years after the referendum, the number of people waiting for more than four hours in A&E is the highest on record.

Anyone spotted anything on the news about Johnson and Hancock lying about not being warned about asymptomatic spread? No. Me neither.

Boris Johnson’s shameless care homes defence that he “didn’t know covid could be transmitted asymptomatically” has been blown apart by this new footage Every UK news show should play this in the morning

Idea for a TV show: Angela Rayner and four Tory MPs take turns hosting a three course dinner. I'm thinking of calling it Scum Dine With Me. #AngelaRayner

Warmest congratulations to Jacob Rees-Mogg, who has secured the only job so far created by #Brexit.

Justice Secretary Dominic Raab has just hopped from one UK news show to another telling viewers enough bull**** to fertilize an entire field If you think the country deserves better share this far and wide

The claim that Johnson “got the big calls right” on Covid is right up there with Andrew Windsor claiming he can’t sweat.

Tense days ahead as Boris Johnson waits to find out if inquiry ordered by Boris Johnson finds that Boris Johnson attended a party at Boris Johnson’s house.

It’s only the first day of Parliament following the Christmas break and even I am struggling to keep up with all the lies the Prime Minister has told today. We need you to act @CommonsSpeaker NOW

It’s time for that big retweet surge again… The video that just won’t go away, @BBCNews.
The film they hope will disappear without trace is now on the very cusp a staggering 38 MILLION VIEWS! let’s let @BorisJohnson & @BBCNews know it will be waiting for them in the morning

Letting Covid cases run high enough to admit *another* more virulent variant is *another* unconscionable risk Boris Johnson’s government took with your family & your country’s wellbeing. Without either permission or explanation. But hey ho. On we go.

I’m afraid this is simply not true, @MattHancock. In real terms, it equates to an annual percentage increase of 3.4%. Ie: *lower* than the average % increase of 4% since NHS founded in 1948. And *substantially* lower then the 6% increases under Brown & Blair. Facts matter.
Today our commitment to funding the NHS passed into law - An extra £33.9 billion a year by 2024. The largest and longest cash boost in NHS history

This never happened. Invented by the Tories to divert your attention from a child having to lie on a hospital floor; reported by media that didn’t bother to check if it was true. This is what media bias looks like.

Devastating. The moment the BBC finally stood up. Still a long way to go to rectify all that has happened but this was the most important moment of the election

Boris Johnson intends to cut tax for the 3 million highest earners in the UK This will cost the country £9.6billion a year, which could be used to fund the 100,000 staff the NHS is missing and then some Please RT if you don’t want Boris anywhere near PM theguardian.com/politics/201…

Please don’t fall for the words of those who seek to undermine the NHS in order to profit from it. The NHS is not failing, it is being failed. Please RT if you know there is a big difference.
