北京，知春路附近，8点左右开始有警察随机查路人手机，如果有推，电报，会警告，并登记个人信息。遇到反抗，警察直接说你可以投诉

“No 10 calls arrest of BBC journalist in Shanghai 'shocking' ahead of PM speech urging 'robust pragmatism' stance on China.”
Curiously, the Tories were less forthcoming when Hertfordshire police arrested Charlotte Lynch at a Just Stop Oil protest on the M25…

HS2 is 8x more expensive than any other Rail project in the world ever per mile.
And no it’s not the land purchase costs, they are only 12% of the cost.
It’s a source of endless fraud.

A year ago, we talked about the the difficult choice families faced between heating and eating. Now many families do not have that choice. They can afford neither.

Times are hard but for many they are going to be even harder in 2023. From April, the number of households spending 30% of their income on fuel will double from 1.8 million to 3.6 million. The government must provide a greater level of help with heating.

The Tories have to destroy the NHS to reduce the population. The cost of prescriptions alone will kill off millions. Pile the Bodies high was for real!

Surreal night in Beijing
Protesters chanted "no to covid tests, yes to freedom" for hours
Some cheered for Xi Jinping to step down.
After 2am, police presence ramped up. I asked one what they'd do if people didn't leave. Would they use tear gas? He just said plz go home @CNN

Daily reminder that the price of Humalog insulin has been increased by almost 1200% since 1996 with 0 changes to the insulin itself.
That’s a 1200% increase on insulin I die in 48 hours without.

How in Hell can this government be thought of as competent?
70 cases of diphtheria suspected.
No consultation with NHS or health officials as people were shipped around the country.
This is criminally negligent.

I see people talking about the Sunday Times asking why people should not be charged £50 for visiting their GP.
Because it is a stupid idea. If you want to increase pressure on A&E, I can't think of a better way to do it.

I spent 40 hours with a small telescope pointed at part of the sky to capture this: A supernova's shockwave travelling through space. It's over 6x wider than the full moon in the sky, just too faint to see without proper equipment. Zoom in and check out all the crazy details!

So this year I decided not to send Christmas cards as they only end up in the bin. Instead this year I did a big shop for my local food bank

This is a health problem. Labour is disgusting.
