We’ve written to @SteveBarclay to confirm next week’s strike is going ahead, after his last-minute letter. Read the full letter from @RobLaurensonD4P @_VivekTrivedi #JuniorDoctorsStrike bma.org.uk/bma-media-centre/…

Anyone amazed by the complete lack of media coverage of the junior doctor strikes next week? A little odd, no?

I don’t agree with the imagery GL used but I absolutely defend his right to express views. He spoke out on Qatar - on the BBC. Tweetgate says more about BBC paranoia in a time of Charter renewal and residual snobbery in some quarters about sportspeople daring to have opinions 2/2

March 22 at the incredible Libearty Bear Sanctuary in Transylvania. Masha’s refugee story came to an end at her new forever home in a stunning enclosure nestled in the Carpathian Mountains. Masha is a bear and her rescue story was a moment of hope during this time of tragedy.

A thread about rescuing a bear from Ukraine War is hell and horrors beyond imagination are being endured by the Ukrainian people because of Putin’s madness. On March 19 a rescue mission got underway to save a bear called Masha from Ukraine who was stranded there by Putin’s war.

I would like to apologise for suggesting to the Prime Minister that he cut to the chase and offer Covid a square go. In my defence I thought it was clear I was joking and did not expect to see it become government policy.

A Wigan fan has cheekily asked Jermaine Defoe if he’d donate £5000 to help save the club who are currently in administration, £1000 for each goal he scored against them for Spurs when they beat Wigan 9-1. He paid the full £5000 without hesitation. Classy that. #WAFC 👏

Even in football, the most tribal of sports, supporters do admit that their side can perform poorly. In politics, though, it’s bizarre how supporters find it almost impossible to admit that their side has ever performed poorly. This is my way of ‘sticking to football’. 👍🏻

Twitter trends awaken something deep in my soul which says whenever lots of people tweet, or think, the same thing, then it should be questioned and NOT followed blindly with endorsement or comment. However, in this instance I agree Cummings should go.
Let me get this right we must all “Isolate if we have symptoms” of #COVID19... Unless you’re #DominicCummings In which case you are perfectly reasonable to drive the length of the country with two symptomatic individuals “near to collapse” #StayHomeSaveLives

I'd like to congratulate countless foreign-born workers everywhere from the NHS to the buses on silently graduating from 'unskilled & welcome' to 'intrinsic & invaluable'. I expect Priti Patel to join me any minute now.

Aside from playing incredible football and winning every week, it’s extremely unfair of @LFC to make themselves so likeable.
.@VirgilvDijk surprises a lifelong Red, who has had some challenges in his life. A day David will never, ever forget ❤️ Dear Liverpool FC, presented by @NIVEAMENUK...

Dear @BorisJohnson & @MattHancock, for the avoidance of doubt, could you please name the 40 new hospitals, the timescale for completion, the cost, how the need for each was determined & precisely what you mean by ‘new’ and ‘hospital’? Thank you.
