Here’s the legend that is Dennis Skinner on his “United Nations heart bypass”.
How easy to blame & scapegoat migrants for failures of the @CONservatives who have been in power & have broken Britain.
Think, people, think.

For years Universities have been lamenting the lack of student engagement and seeking to increase it; more recently they have been banging on about decolonising. Turns out that student engagement and decolonising were never meant to include actual engagement and/or decolonising🙄

Diane Abbott, "No one from the Conservative party has apologised. Not at all"
"They keep saying Frank Hester has apologised. He hasn't apologised. He's apologised for being rude, where in fact he was being racist"
"He apologised for being rude, and in fact he was inciting violence. He's not apologised for that" #C4News

I attended the rally tonight in #Hackney. Lots of supporters there showing admiration for @HackneyAbbott. And when she arrived, the crowd erupted #DianeAbbott

Yet another study fails to find any antidepressant med benefit in teenagers.
Makes absolutely no sense for 4% US teens to still be on meds despite 30 yrs of consistently failed trials & strong black-box warning re increased risk of #suicide.
Youth with #depression may just require talk therapy. Study finds no benefit from a combination of therapy and medication (fluoxetine). thelancet.com/journals/lanps…

“He’s not racist, he has worked in Jamaica before, his comment isn’t racist, it just sounds racist …”
You can’t make this up.

Friend of Frank Hester, Lord Marland tells me
"He is not a racist... he made some unfortunate remarks that do sound racist"
"He does a lot of business in Jamaica, in Malaysia, Bangladesh and places like that so he's not a racist"
