Nicola Sturgeon angrily denied ‘celebrating’ claims that the NHS in England is facing a ‘humanitarian crisis’ at First Minister’s Questions. @Lee_wallace19xx said: “The NHS in Scotland under enormous stress. The fact, unlike England, there isn’t a humanitarian crisis doesn’t mean SNP doing enough!” @rabana45 defended the FM: “NHS England in meltdown and both Labour and Tories attack the only NHS in UK to work.” @Josh_hendy countered: “Don’t be misconstrued by the party politics. Three-year delay of the NHS trauma centres is a huge failure of the Scottish Government.” @maidotheloch wrote: “Hey @Ruthdavidsonmsp do something useful and demand your Tory gov stops lying and gives health services in UK the money they need.” @mikewr added: “Ruth’s struggling to land a blow re: NHS, poor advice to choose this as a topic!”

#TRUMP
Walter Shaub, director of the US Office of Government Ethics, attacked Donald Trump’s plan to turn his business empire over to his sons as ‘wholly inadequate’. @Wpjohnwagner reported: “OGE director Walter Shaub on Trump’s business exit: ‘The plan does not comport with the tradition of our presidents over the past 40 years.” @jlef423 said: “Amazing to hear ethics attorneys on right & left agree that Donald Trump should sell assets, remove self from private interest.” @Theotherkellyb warned: “Trump better start listening to the ethics committee & not just his people. They’re not gonna care when you mess up & say you got bad advice.”
