Dear @wesstreeting,
You said that part of the reason you couldn’t vote for the AD bill was the lack of adequate palliative care in the UK.
You are the health secretary.
Will you now pledge publicly & immediately to fix that?
Or are dying people not enough of a priority?

Bereaved relatives who 'suffered worst consequences of pandemic' demand to speak at Covid-19 Inquiry

calderdaleandkirklees999call… "Case for Change" is full of unevidenced claims and misinformation. This wretched "piece of work" MUST be withdrawn! Have a look at the "maternal deaths" bit - you'll see what we mean! #NHS
Hunger is a violation of basic human rights – we should be outraged by UK's food bank crisis.
Work doesn't pay. 38% of universal credit claimants are at work.
1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined.
Must redistribute income/wealth.

Today the APPG on #MND has been re-established with @IanByrneMP elected Chair and @AphraBrandreth, @MichaelPayneUK & @OllyGloverLD as Vice Chairs. The Group will work to highlight the challenges people with MND face and campaign for better access to high quality services.
ALT Several people are sitting round a wooden table. There is a banner behind them with the MND Association logo, and the text on the banner reads 'The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Motor Neurone Disease'.

I want to acknowledge the incredible courage of the covid-19 bereaved families who shared their witness statements at the Covid-19 Inquiry today.
We are the ones with lived experiences, carrying the voices of our loved ones taken too soon. #CovidInquiry

🚨 NEW 🚨 Data just out would put England in the bottom 4 nations in Europe for bathing water cleanliness.
Only 64% of sites meet the "the highest, cleanest classification."
Based on 2023 data, JUST Albania, Poland, and Hungary performed worse. weownit.org.uk/england-among…

Conclusion= "case for change" is as fantastical, unreliable & lacking in evidence as the "fantasy" economics indulged in by Govts, NHSE, ICBs,providers/trusts
When we all know the aim is to deny us care by whatever means they can get away w whether closing hosps,beds, using PAs

Imagine the headline when a GP practice fails patient care due to lack of training in …
Safeguarding
Resuscitation
Doesn’t follow current guidelines on care
FYI this has been happening up and down the country for decades to make sure patients are kept safe

Merseysiders - especially Liverpool city councillors - here's a forensic analysis of the ICB's so-called "Case for Change". Put simply, the ICB has NOT made a case. Please read & RT this ESSENTIAL reading- thanks #NHS
If the ICB wants an honest conversation about Liverpool Women’s Hospital (LWH) it could start by acknowledging the flaws in its own case and accurately reporting the national standards for emergency care. tinyurl.com/icbcfc1
liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liv… Thank you Liverpool Echo @LiamThorpECHO for MP's one word response to the
threat to LWH @LWHstays & thank you @IanByrneMP for your fantastic support - Merseysiders need to know what is going on -

This editorial from @guardian on the PA issue makes it crystal clear that the discourse over the PA role is not just a 'vocal minority' on SoMe - it is a major public policy debate about patient safety and proper use of taxpayers money.
