Sad to report that I have had zero contact from @SteveBarclay on utilising the three empty Rutherford cancer centres following my offer a few weeks ago. 20,000 cancer patients stand to benefit. Extremely disappointing to say the least. Can he not find time for one call?

It may come as massive surprise to the English but the missing Baroness Mone is currently in Belize, even has an address and pays an electricity bill. A neighbour of the "bad boys of brexit), Banks and Wigmore. All tucked up nicely away from UK and international law.

So, @KemiBadenoch had a consultation about toilet provision. That consultation produced 83% of respondents in favour of non-gendered toilets, nearly SEVEN TIMES the number who wanted single-sex loos. So what does she do…? Decide to enforce single-sex loos & ban mixed ones…

Palliative care doctor here. I'm sickened that @SteveBarclay wants to ditch two thirds of NHS cancer targets, including the two-week-wait. I witness the horrific human cost of delayed diagnoses & avoidable deaths & I can tell you it is scandalous. (1/2) https://t.co/uSEBtDf1si

NHS England want to reduce nine targets to three in a bid to simplify "outdated" standards.
