Lee Hurst: As usual, no one in govt...

As usual, no one in govt will be looking into the chaotic care system and addressing the massive inefficiencies of carers spending more time driving between clients rather than actually with them. Instead, they will simply use the hammer of more tax rises to paper over it. One example. After my mum with dementia had been discharged from hospital and left bed bound due to their ‘care’ (she had walked in). The NHS initially paid for her home carers. I then had a 2 hour phone conversation with 4 separate agencies at the same time for what the council bloke told me was a 99% certainty that the NHS would cease funding her care and it would fall upon the local council. In other words 4 x 2 hours so a whole working day’s public sector salary waste of time for a foregone conclusion. Then there was the state funded charity conversation to simply tell me how to claim attendance allowance for mum rather than them just issuing it. It’s a total industry drowning in waste. Before another penny is stolen from the taxpayer, sort it out first.

Pouria Zeraati: The Yemeni Leadership Council...

Important/ The Yemeni Leadership Council [backed by Saudi Arabia] announced that the Houthis are using Islamic Republic air defense systems that have been converted into cruise missiles, and warned that these weapons pose a serious threat to civilian aircraft in the southern Red Sea. The military spokesperson for this council stated that IRGC experts in Yemen assisted in modifying these weapons. These missiles are launched from Hodeidah and can remain airborne for up to 25 minutes. The thermal guidance system of these missiles can target "any heat source" and makes no distinction between military and civilian targets; therefore, it may also endanger commercial flights, UN aircraft, and humanitarian operations.

Liz Webster: Now it is being said out loud...

🚨 Now it is being said out loud: call a snap election and make it a “reverse 2019”. Former Foreign Office adviser @b_judah says @andyburnham should seek a mandate with rejoining the EU as Britain’s ultimate objective, using the single market and customs union as the first stage. His warning is brutal: Burnham’s popularity may be peaking. A punishing Budget, difficult winter and worsening global instability lie ahead. Delay Europe until his authority has drained away and he repeats Starmer’s fatal mistake. Boris Johnson won an 80-seat majority promising to “Get Brexit Done”. Burnham could unite Britain’s pro-European majority by promising to repair the damage and take us home. Despite today’s denials, the case for an early Brexit election is now being made openly. Game on.
