I find the hypocrisy of countries criticising China for not having deployed mRNA vaccines- while at the same time having opposed patent waivers quite astounding. If they truly wanted global vax access, why didn't they enable it? Still huge mRNA vax shortages across the globe.

NEW: Food inflation at a record 13.3%.

Families will be wondering whether they will ever feel better off under the Tories.

With the growing cost of the weekly shop just one factor in this, the answer will be no.

Britain deserves better than this.

People tuned in to Sunak’s speech to hear about what the govt will do to stop people dying from lack of healthcare. Instead we get a sales pitch full of fantasies about how they will make Britain great again.

Enough BS. Are you going to do your job? If not, get out the way Sunak

Every time I discuss climate science folks inevitably ask "what about the sun".

Over the long term the sun has a big impact. But over the past 50 years when the Earth has warmed rapidly, the amount of energy reaching us from the sun has slightly declined: https://climate.nasa.gov/ask-nasa-climate/2910/what-is-the-suns-role-in-climate-change/

Are their any other 69 year olds who think that the last 12.5 years have been the very worst in their lives and who fear for the future?

The government say they are giving the NHS everything they need...
Meanwhile the longest waiting lists in history, 500 people a week dying needlessly due to delays and staff shortages, Drs say the NHS has passed breaking point.... Who is telling the truth?

I see Nightingale Hospitals is trending as a solution to the current ED/bed shortage.
They could not be staffed during the pandemic, they cannot be staffed now.

“In Finland, the # of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” https://scoop.me/housing-first-finland-homelessness/

If giving public sector workers a pay rise will destroy the economy you have to ask, who does the economy serve?

Spectacular dishonesty from @RishiSunak who clearly doesn’t give a damn about the deaths, misery, overcrowding & horror we must witness in hospitals everywhere. Come & see it for yourself, Prime Minister. Come on - let us show you. Look the dying patients in the eye like we must.

Gas price is the lowest for nearly a year, but our bills are up.
Ofgem just hiked cap from £3549 to £4279 i.e. Govt will on average pay £1779 (£4279 less £2500) per household to energy companies.
Rip-off profiteering.
Ofgem isn't protecting customers.
