I’m going to the #EnoughIsEnough protest tomorrow.

A patient today - an NHS worker - was forced to pull together savings to seek private healthcare because he’d been waiting too long in pain. It felt humiliating. My colleagues are leaving, this work is unsustainable and draining

Meanwhile, the government makes concessions for their friends - with the taxes we pay - for the ultra wealthy, the shareholders and banks, while our public services which have been eroded for 12 years meet their ultimate tipping point

#EnoughIsEnough

I’ve just returned from the US - a land of opportunity for some, alongside people with florid mental health challenges unable to access care, catastrophic health expenditure & a crisis of homelessness that is viscerally disgusting

The UK is in free fall catch up

#EnoughIsEnough

That cannot be allowed to happen here while the ultra wealthy and the political class that props them up are partying on the backs of the labour of the people of this country, and of the countries that it has directly and indirectly colonised

#EnoughIsEnough

A country which has declared a climate emergency yet repeatedly acts in the interests of the few, invests in new oil, and ignores the realities of the 99% at home and abroad

It’s a matter of dignity to join tomorrow
