Bumped into the Secretary of State for Health @wesstreeting so had a quick chat to thank him after he agreed to take forward my bill to protect the title of nurse in law. Grateful for the support and proud to stand up for our NHS and the nursing profession #ProtectNurse

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' ft.com/content/f5fd6f8d-06a7…

Horrifying scenes unfolding in Gaza, amidst conflict, relentless Israeli strikes & an ever-worsening humanitarian crisis. I condemn the continuing attacks on civilians. Hostages must be freed, displacement of Palestinians must cease, & civilians must be protected.

🚨 WATCH 🚨
The problem: firefighters are struggling to keep the public safe after years of fragmentation in the fire service.
The solution: a statutory advisory body - with firefighters given a voice - to inform national standards.

“$500,000 in political donations associated with fast track projects” reports @radionz. That may well be an underestimate given the lack of transparency around electoral donations in #NZ. Country’s reputation for good governance is fast eroding. rnz.co.nz/news/in-depth/5303…
