Tonight the Manchester Evening News has published a special report from @PaulBrittonMEN. This is one of the most heart breaking and important stories we've published in some time. Here follows a short thread:
@PaulBrittonMEN 1/10 This is Karen McBride, a mum-of-four who was found dead at her home after years of struggle and fear over money and 'uninhabitable' living conditions.
2/10 Karen was, by all accounts, a remarkable person. Her direct experiences of inadequate housing and poverty led her to become a prominent and respected anti-poverty campaigner.
Last night, the medical director of North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) shared a sombre message as he stood outside in the freezing cold. 1/13
Looking into the camera of a mobile phone, he admitted that 111 and 999 services were being overwhelmed. 2/13
