Please do not use blue surgical masks which leak air round the sides. Please use FFP2/3 (or N95/99) which are close-fitting and give much better protection against AIRBORNE VIRUSES.

www.pharmacy.biz/american-cov... Still giving the wrong mask advice. Still the same broken guidance with no reflection of the evidence in the Covid inquiry. Gappy masks won’t keep you safe in a poor ventilated space. #WeShareTheAir We need respirators that seal to the face. They are infinitely more…

UK ‘an outlier in Europe’ for letting Farage and other politicians present TV shows. GB News, owned by hedge fund manager, is the propaganda arm of Reform/Farage. Politicians must be scrutinized, and not allowed to present news or current affairs programmes.

Jenrick on #r4today trying to downplay the raging racism of Reform… by saying “Farage has done more than anyone else to stand up against racism and the far right”. Farage the schoolboy Nazi. Farage the ‘breaking point’ Brexiter. Farage the mass-deportations champion. Farage the far right racist.

The vetting procedure: Are you at least one of - A racist bellend A misogynistic bellend A xenophobic bellend An ignorant bellend? And are you willing to - Humiliate yourself to protect the great god Farage ? Welcome aboard

Just brilliant to see the new Green administration in Lambeth saving these excellent estates so decisively, after many years of listening and working with residents to defend their homes. When I launched my 2021 Mayor manifesto, Cressingham Gdns was the obvious place to hightlight our values. 💚💚👏👏

What is “hard left”? If it’s some1 wanting ALL public services in th hands of th public & not in the hands of private spivs. All public services properly funded, climate change at th top of the menu, th redistribution of wealth, corporations out of our politics and on and on. Then I am “hard left”.

"Hard left" = the wild notion that a country should own its own infrastructure, that people should be treated equally and taxed fairly. Join the "hard left". The big money seems to be afraid of us. join.greenparty.org.uk

‼️ Bradford's City of Sanctuary status has been saved! 🟢 Green councillors were proud to vote against Reform's divisive motion to scrap the Council's City of Sanctuary status at Bradford Full Council meeting tonight. Refugees and asylum seekers are welcome in Bradford 🙏

Reform's attitude towards women, in their own words and actions. Disgusting.

The Reform Councillor “if she was my daughter, it would still be bath night on a Thursday” etc - I hope he doesn't have a daughter who he is actually assaulting in the bath. While being reassured its ok, because they laughed.

1) An emergency brake on rents - rising by the LOWEST of CPI inflation, wage growth, or 2%. 2) A commitment to protecting social security - not pitting people on benefits against spending on weapons. 3) Energy in public hands and a energy revolution now - cutting bills for everyone, forever.
