Healthworkers protest over derisory 1% pay offer. The value of their pay has dropped by 20% since 2010, leading to thousands leaving the profession and a third of current nurses seriously considering leaving. The message is clear: "Pay up or we strike." #NHSPay15 @ima_press

#Racism in #healthcare is leading to reduced #vaccine uptake amongst racially minoritised communities. We can start decolonising healthcare by ending the legacy of denying care to migrants in the UK. @Rizwanalala tells us more 👇 buff.ly/3rCDVZS

"The owner of Britain's Daily Mail newspaper acquired science and technology magazine New Scientist for £70m in cash, as it looks to build out its subscriptions and digital offerings." What could be the reason behind this? Taking over #bigtech? businesslive.co.za/bd/compan…

Dear BBC, ITN, & all UK news organisations, race is now central to any Royal reporting. Who you appoint as your Royal correspondent will indicate how seriously you take diversity and how much you understand principles of inclusion. #OprahMeghanHarry

Dear @BBCNews. I pay for your service and expect the news to include the truth and all of it. If Prime Minister Johnson is found in court to have lied and misled parliament, this is headline content. Why was it not reported?

Silence regarding the Saudi Arabia regime - the media are instead choosing to focus on a pair of earrings.
Britain's media is managing to get upset that Meghan Markle wore earrings given to her by MBS while simultaneously not caring that the UK govt is selling billions of £s of weapons to same dictator who is using them to turn Yemen into world's worst humanitarian disaster. Amazing.
