A Thread 🧵: #NHS
1/
It is the Tweet I have been dreading I would post one day.

And I will only tweet this once:

I am leaving the NHS tonight.

And I am blaming mainly one reason for this:
This Tory Government. You have broken me as an NHS Nurse.
12 years of cuts+betrayal 1/2 2/2 …, your Tory-corruption,-greed and shameless acts of intentional underfunding have been bearing fruit: We’re broken.
Long long before the pandemic you cut the GP budgets when I was Practice Nursing, you cut Patient services, you asked us not to refer any more for this+that…

You know how angry this makes me?
Accused of 10000’s of missing Test- results+given tens of millions of pounds gov contracts.

I love my parents home in Germany in the morning ☀️ ☀️ 🌅 🏡 2/2 I love my parents home in Germany in the morning ☀️ ☀️ 🌅 🏡

This is your daily reminder that Germany 🇩🇪 which has 20 million more citizens than the UK spent less than 1 (one) Billion pounds on their Track and Trace system. And didn’t run out of money.

The Tories spent 37 Billion pounds and ran out of money.
It vanished in Tory companies 2/5 As a reminder: The total cost of running the state of the United Kingdom is 101 Billion pounds. The Tories intentionally spent 37 Billion pounds, more than a third of the total state budget on a failing system. It never worked properly. But they knew this. Some “consultants”

Err… yes, we couldn’t afford the Ryan Air flight to our families back home, many of my Nurse colleagues and I, since we can legally fly again. Oh yes,also due to the lovely Tory-company-Covid-Testing Costs.
Oh, that’s never been your problem?
Yes, I know.
And because you’re not

listening to us you got your “mini”-budget (not even!) so wrong.

You will never know or understand the anger that pictures like that one in my Tweet cause in me and all those who worry if the money is enough for bread this week (forget heating).
Glad to see you had someone

Looked at an NHS net income calculator:
Saw how much National Insurance I’ll have to pay.
Passed the service station:
Saw the fuel prices.
Glanced at the gas+electricity bill.
Looked at the costs of food.

We will continue(NHS Nurses) relying on food banks.Debt will be sky high And the issue is not only that:
Crucially it didn’t have to be like that:
It was Sunak’s direct intention because:
-Tax of energy companies would easily have eased this
-not giving banks the tax relief he gave them would have paid for it
-37 Billion toTory T+Trace
-8 Billion PPE

No, he does NOT ,dear BBC.

Sunak:
-let’s energy Prices hike 54% and in the EU the cap is (France for example) 4% (!!!).
Please listen,guys, he then shouts and insults the EU about “solar panel rules” while he himself gives 49% of those energy hikes to the energy companies who have nothing better to do than giving it all out in dividends to their shareholders - guess who many shareholders are - Tories.
Do you SEE the evil game that’s being played here with the vulnerable in society? Unpaid carers got NOTHING today.
Then the LIES about the EU

After todays PMQ’s and especially Sunak’s horrendous self-serving, the poor disregarding speech I have absolutely nothing,nothing at all left in me to believe that the Tories will ever ever be worthy of governing the am amazing UK.
The horrendous LIES about the EU again. I have (obviously) family in the EU.
Solar panels and deep earth heating and insulation was OF COURSE subsided by the thousands of Euros. They didn’t need tax relief - they had already been given many thousands to purchase their green energy.

I never thought SUNAK could make

There is NO excuse for this.

Especially after the SAME people threw BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND B-I-L-L-I-O-N-S of pounds around in the last 24 months as if they own a FOREST of money trees and if it was their own money+they gave it TO THEIR party-donors who will donate it back. I want to tell you one thing,Tories:Unlike your assumption we NHS staff+the public are NOT stupid.We have SEEN all you did, we SEE what you do NOW,we KNOW this is OUR money,we are NOT forgiving+NOT understanding about:

In Berlin main station 15000 dear Ukrainian people arrive very day, about 1000 are housed DAILY by Berlin council, the other families ans friends move on to other cities in Germany and beyond.
I love Germany 🇩🇪. It’s where my family originated from.
But 1/

2/ so so much more needs to be done.
Housing and giving a home abroad when people are fleeing is one thing.
And the country where I am also a citizen of,the UK 🇬🇧,is currently NOT doing enough to help those who are in that desperate situation. My other people (Germans) 2/

The #Ukraine and its #Ukrainians are rising to the challenge.

Do we?

Rise to the challenge?

They fight and pay the price of loss of loved ones.
Their Homes.

Do we rise to the challenge or will history judge the UK of having hidden behind shameful cowardly Visa rules?

“I am deeply saddened by the tragic death of Valeriia (Lera) Maksetska, a member of our Chemonics family. She was killed in a village west of Kyiv while trying to get medication for her sick mother. The car she was in was gunned down by a Russian tank. 1/2

Like all our staff in Ukraine, Lera was deeply committed to her work and the goal of strengthening Ukraine’s democracy.”

For my fellow Londoners: Euston Station in London has just been closed due to someone having been hit by a train on the Victoria Line which goes through Euston as well.

As a consequence there’s no Victoria Line either.

(Announcement in the Northern Line tube carriage just now) If you are affected by this:

1/Watching the EU making statements in unity about Putins war murders makes you realize the UK is standing on the side lines.Ministers barely making random visits to the Polish border for photo shoots for British tabloid papers

What was the reason for leaving a block of 500 Mio? 2/ … What was the reason to leave the EU, the block of 500 Mio people and 27 countries again? Oh yes, #ToryBrexitDisaster was about limiting Immigration into our country because we Brits need those houses and Jobs and Money that the evil people (like me, I’m on both sides) from

It really is unbelievable that the whole world is watching our fellow humans die on the streets+in the houses of Ukraine and the Tories have absolutely no intention to sanction Russian Banks before Putins friends have moved their money.

Not a bit of remorse

The irony is, if I may add this detail, that many NHS Nurses like me are regulars at Food Banks. And have been for a while.

So here we have Tory MP’s taking a brutal War Lords’ money by the tens of thousands and STILL accept that he’s murdering a COUNTRY while NHS staff despair.

A friend of mine is very disheartened whats going on+how some people even defend Putin+how he+those who disregard rules+democracy get away with it. In the UK or in 🇷🇺
„Why should we not give up and be like the selfish+theTyrants?“
This is how I responded to her.
A Thread 🧵
1 / 2 /„I totally understand your frustration.
It’s unbelievable what selfishness people have these days.

You are right and correct in all you say.

There is zero excuse for the brutality and mass murder that Putin is doing in Ukraine
