Don't miss #Breathtaking at 9pm on Monday @ITV, an important but very challenging drama about the experience of NHS staff during the pandemic. We will also be sharing a behind-the-scenes podcast with Dr Rachel Clarke (@doctor_oxford), author of the book that inspired the show.

It feels hugely hypocritical that Ministers & MPs are criticising the BBC for not taking sexual misbehaviour seriously At the last count more than 40 MPs have been investigated for it, 2 are on bail & 2 are currently in prison Everyone needs to take a good look at themselves

"During the dark days of Covid, it was the NHS which gave us hope, not ministers partying in Downing Street." Labour MP Chi Onwurah says "the Tories seek to demonise the very NHS staff we clapped from our doorsteps because they voted to strike".

The Met are taking no action over this gathering at Tory HQ during lockdown, as the photo of people packed together, drinking and eating party food is not sufficient evidence.

Extreme Tories can’t blame Brussels bureaucrats for their own staggering incompetence anymore.

Thank to this man: Brexit isn’t done. 200k Britons are dead. 40 hospitals aren’t built. Poverty is rife. The NHS is imploding. Gun crime is rising. Life expectancy is falling. Energy prices are horrifying. Food bank use is exponential. But yeah sure, Boris. The big calls right.

This is the Covid Memorial wall in London. It takes a full 10 minutes to walk its length. 197,635 Covid deaths to date - and counting. Boris Johnson’s unforgivable legacy.

Finally doing the right thing. It is amazing though that after everything is will be Pincher who brings Boris Johnson down - not all the constitutional outrages or breaches of the ministerial code - somehow bizarrely a fitting end

On 6th anniversary of Brexit, David Frost launched a staunch defence stating: “Brexit is working and naysayers have axes to grind” Rest of the world: Brexit is in fact an unmitigated disaster and people are simply pointing out these objective disasters.theguardian.com/politics/202…

Yes, he really did just make this disgusting comment to Tory MPs. Please RT if, like me, you want him gone.

Boris Johnson was booed as he arrived at St. Paul's Cathedral on Friday for the queen's Platinum Jubilee celebration. The British PM is facing calls to resign after it was revealed he and others partied during the pandemic, as lockdowns were enforced. cbsn.ws/3mhKakJ

Changing the rules while you are being investigated for breaking those same rules is the stuff of fascism I don’t say that lightly

Neil Parish has resigned after watching porn in the House of Commons. If he had just stuck to breaking the law then repeatedly lying to the House about it he would still have a job. independent.co.uk/news/uk/po…
