That people feel emboldened to direct such racist language at anyone, let alone people like you offering them their care, is a damning indictment of how far-right rhetoric has poisoned public life. To anyone who abuses NHS staff: you will be caught, and you will face the full force of the law.
A reminder to all NHS staff: you are loved, wanted and appreciated by millions of Londoners, and we collectively condemn the vile racism you continue to experience.

It's been an absolute honour to visit Clacton fewer times than I've visited America, hold zero surgeries and do fuck all for the town.
"I said it's a bold move by Reform to use the Navy to return migrants. What did I say Roy?" "You said it's an unworkable load of bollocks designed to win back some racist numbskulls from Rupert Lowe and distract attention from Farage's £5m bung"

BRILLIANT NEWS! 🎉 Up to 2,000 Gannet chicks SAVED from being killed in this year’s Guga hunt. The decision has been made by NatureScot to REFUSE the application for the 2026 Guga hunt to go ahead.
What the hell is the BBC 6pm news doing leading with Farage's clickbait about using the Royal Navy to stop immigrants? An absurd soundbite from a tiny party with a disgraced leader and that's the most important news in the UK today? Dear God. The rot has truly gone deep.
We are in the third drought in five years. We have the National Trust and NFU - those radical types - sounding the alarm on unprecedented temperatures. But so little from any single figure in politics talking about the climate crisis.
Today I have mostly been telling lies about using Navy warships against dinghies and forgetting to mention that small boat arrivals are down 44% and net migration fell by 80% last year.
Rebekah Brooks, CEO of News UK, herself cleared of phone hacking charges in 2014, called Liddle "an inimitable journalistic force." That's one word for it. The word most of his targets would use is unprintable. He had a long career. The women, minorities & disabled people he mocked have longer scars
According to Luke Tryl on Radio 4 disillusioned Reform voters think Farage is “just the same as the rest” on the corruption front. But he isn’t is he? He’s exponentially worse. And his grifter tendency has been obvious for a very long time.

We should never forget how the BBC has changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage and other rightwing extremists, while shutting out progressive voices.
And why is #r4today giving (yet again) such prominence to a hair-brained scheme that has little chance to ever be implemented? A GE is unlikely soon and the threat of Reform winning it is apparently receding. What is the justification for legitimising it?
You'd be amazed how many people it takes to fight a bin.
The evidence is clear: neighbourhood crime is falling across London. There have been 35,000 fewer offences in the last year thanks to record investment in the Met, more officers on our streets and targeted action to tackle robbery, burglary and vehicle crime.
