Flight read

I’ve been reading No Place To Call Home: Inside The Real Lives Of Gypsies and Travellers by Katharine Quarmby and today a documentary recording the eviction from Dale Farm crossed my Twitter timeline. I recommend a read and a watch. The documentary can be viewed here

Next up is NHS SOS: How the NHS was betrayed – and how we can save it which comes with a foreword by Ken Loach. I met a Polish taxi-driver working in London who told me his tale of having his life saved on the NHS. He collapsed, woke up in a hospital to learn he had a brain tumour. He expressed strong support for the NHS and appreciation for the treatment and care he received.
