Gotta hand it to UK press; Johnson using Trump playbook & *literally being coached by Bannon* & you’re like “Yes. I like this. It is good.” Although I can’t vote I’m a member of @UKLabour so I can at least support them with a little £. I learned more about how Tory cuts kill sick & disabled kids & destroy their families as brain cancer disabled my own son then killed him.

Happy 70th birthday to the NHS! I moved to the UK 4 yrs ago after 4 decades using US health care. Was amazed at how easily I registered my family at our local GP. Quality care, free at point of use & £8 for prescriptions? Shocking to an American. #NHS70 My family pays £200/yr per person- the Immigration Health Surcharge & we pay UK taxes & National Insurance contributions as residents who work here. So it’s not free. But it’s free AT THE POINT OF USE. A critical distinction.

My oldest son was at daycare next door to Santa Monica College in June 2013 when a man shot & killed 5 people with an AR-15. 2 victims, Carlos & Marcelo Franco, father & daughter were killed a little less than 100’ from my son. Between the Francos & my son (& many other babies & toddlers) was a chain link fence & air. The Francos were shot in their car which then crashed through a short wall surrounding a parking lot.

This piece isn't perfect but I agree with much of it. It reminds me of some things I've been thinking. 1/

If you voted for Trump, you did a bad, indefensible thing. Something is wrong with you. You're bad at thinking & decisions. 2/
