Wes Streeting was brilliant on Loose Women today and explained that women's health is now under more focus of attention. He would be a good Labour leader.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

685,000 Britons has wealth of £2.8 trillion, 48m have £2.4trn.

4 people have more wealth than 20m Britons.

Bottom 50% of the population has 5% of wealth, the bottom fifth only 0.5%.

Rich buy political parties, legislators; hold govts to ransom.

Can't get economic growth without redistribution.

Rachel Reeves’ budget must reduce inequalities and increase spending capacity of the masses

This is how to secure sustained economic growth

Sadly, ignorant and gullible people often choose the wrong people to blame for their poor circumstances. Presently, they're blaming the mist vulnerable, led by far right rhetoric; typical fascist policies. We must care for our vulnerable-disability can happen to any one of us at any time.

How many houses do members of the Royal family need when many UK citizens have none (homeless), cannot afford high rents or mortgages?

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

When you wake up every morning nervous, with a feeling of dread.

Not because you have an important meeting coming up, or work pressure...

But because you don't know whether or not your body is going to work, or if it's going to be a day of agony and uncontrollable symptoms.

I support the Pastor who has tried to help the homeless. I'm sure they'd rather feel safe in a shelter, especially women, than worry about smoke alarms!?

Isn't it time they paid some of those profits to the Treasury and maybe a bit more interest to investors?

UK big four banks on course to pocket annual profits of more than £45bn.

Bank branches vanishing. Profits from high charges, low interest rates on savings, scandals, speculation.

Govt must levy windfall taxes on banks.

British banks to land £45bn profit bonanza

Barclays, Lloyds and NatWest will report results for the third quarter over the next few days, with HSBC releasing figures the following week.

"Vance is doing everything he can to please Trump and Trumpworld, clearly trying to position himself as the obvious successor to Trump for the 2028 general election. But Trump loves drama, and loves to be courted – he is never going to anoint a successor without a fight." inews.co.uk/opinion/jd-v...

Oh yay operation cancelled and been moved back 2 weeks.

It means finding somewhere new to stay, planning everything again… and even longer to have to wait.

This isn’t a complaint, there’s a cancer patient who needs care more than me.

It’s just a nightmare is all.

Mental illnesses are real disabilities.

So are Neurodivergent conditions like Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, and Dyspraxia.

All real, all valid.

People sometimes mistake the fact I don't initiate conversations as being that I don't want to or don't care.

Actually it's usually because I get RSD about it and hate to disturb people.

But I'm always, always here for them if they need and it's never a burden.

Russia attacked Ukraine overnight, killing at least six people and leaving parts of the country without power as temperatures drop.

More than 400 drones and 28 missiles were launched.

After Trump-Putin summit suspended, Russia pounds Ukraine, killing six

The apparent collapse of the latest summit and renewed Russian attacks show that Trump’s hopes for a negotiated solution to the war remain distant.

£80 for dropping litter in the street, while dumping 75,000 poisoned fish in the sea - is free. Open-net fish farms fail again and again, and the public picks up the cost. In Norway, where this fish farm company comes from, they pay for this kind of pollution.

It really is astonishing that anyone bought the argument that Brexit would ‘settle’ the immigration question in the UK. People who made this argument should hang their heads in shame.
