@AlistairBarrie Just had article on ZDF news here in Germany about the sad state of the NHS. It was clear that the problems are due to government underfunding and inaction over years. Your nurses eat free donated food to live. It's difficult to believe the UK was once a modern western state.

You know what would be useful? If supermarkets had an option to donate to foodbanks when you do an online shop. Surely a dev could work this one out? Check box next to the item in the basket? Seems mad this isn't a thing. @Tesco @sainsburys @asda

This was such a brilliant video I subtitled it so more people can watch it. Beijing students' response last night to accusations that there are 'foreign forces' at play in this weekend's protests

Meanwhile in Russia: top propagandists and their friends in high places are getting worried about the possibility of losing the war to Ukraine and being tried at the Hague.

UK Govt. can say what it likes.
Fact is, the city has fled nuclear, and if finance market investors don't take up the remaining majority 60% construction costs, Sizewell C is going nowhere.

Sewage questions to MP prompt police home visits - West Country Voices https://westcountryvoices.co.uk/sewage-questions-to-mp-prompt-police-home-visits/ OK, this is weird. Government intimidating people who want to attend a meeting about raw sewage. Is this China?

As with US ‘managed care’, the more private corporations cut & deny care, the more profit they’ll make.
The Health & Social Care Bill allows private companies to be awarded £multi-billion contracts behind closed doors without competition, normalising PPE/Test & Trace scandals.
