Figures from #nhs #uk showed millions being infected with #covid19 -- it being out of control and our government barely giving a damn (no masks!). So they changed definitions for presented data, starting today. Off to a roaring start! "Today's update will be delayed. The current estimate for release is 5.00pm."

SOS NHS

The NHS is facing its worst crisis ever. This is a national emergency.

In 2010, after a decade of investment, our NHS was delivering its best-ever performance: after more than a decade of austerity – despite heroic efforts by staff – it has sunk to its worst-ever. The problems were there before the pandemic but have been deepened by the continued high level of Covid infections. We need emergency funds to save lives now.

UK people, please sign the petition. Thanks.

Sajid Javid Signs Off £1 Billion Private Health Windfall as MPs Sound Alarm | Byline Times

Health and Social Care Secretary Sajid Javid has authorised a £1 billion windfall payment to 150 private hospitals without them having to provide a single operation to the NHS.
Details of the windfall were released on Wednesday while the Prime Minister was apologising to Parliament and facing resignation calls after admitting that he had attended Downing Street parties during lockdown.
The disclosure of the windfall caused a furore among senior Labour and Conservative MPs on the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee, who were told about the payment just as the committee was meeting to discuss the pandemic.
