Labour Minister Jess Phillips has said she received “quicker” NHS treatment because she voted in favour of an immediate ceasefire in Gaza after a Palestinian doctor recognised her. The Telegraph has more.
Ms. Phillips, the Minister for Safeguarding and Violence against Women and Girls, has reportedly suggested her stance on the conflict had helped speed up her care when a Palestinian doctor treated her during a visit to an A&E department at a Birmingham hospital.
The MP for Birmingham Yardley quit her shadow ministerial role in November last year when Labour was in opposition to vote in favour of an immediate ceasefire. …
According to the Daily Mail, Ms. Phillips recounted how her vote had seemingly played a role in her health treatment during an event billed as An Evening with Jess Phillips, held at Kiln Theatre in north London.
Ms. Phillips reportedly said she had gone to A&E because she was having trouble breathing and that the department was very busy and chaotic.
“I have genuinely seen better facilities, health facilities, in war zones, in developing countries around the world,” she said.
Describing the situation when she got to the front of the queue, she said: “I got through because of who I am. Also, the doctor who saw me was Palestinian, as it turns out. Almost all the doctors in Birmingham seemed to be.”
She said: “He was sort of like, ‘I like you. You voted for a ceasefire’. [Because of that] I got through quicker.”

Is equity what they want? I thought it was the elimination of melanin-deficient skin in toto. And Y chromosomes that belong to people that identify as male.
I thought they were there to learn about data science not nobs and knockers!
I do despair really. Trying to redpill young* intelligent people is such hard work – they just want to get on with their lives and pretend all this mad, evil stuff isn’t going on because it’s too horrible to contemplate. They just hope it will all go away of its own accord. But it won’t.
*I have limited energy and the young are the future.
And what about when the fighting starts?
Indeed. I kind of thought that “covid” would have woken more people up than it did as it was so obviously a complete scam, but it’s been memory-holed.
This did make me laugh!
This is the Met police aiming to meet their DEI quota back in the 1930s. I have a feeling the definition of ”hefty” ( not to mention, ”fairly good looking”, LOL ) has changed somewhat since those days. Doubt there were many ‘Lesbian Nanas’ floating about either…

Priceless
I just told the wife about having to be hefty, I just mentioned she could have joined!

My grandmother was a teacher in the 1920s and when she and my grandfather married she had to give up work – maybe that was the law then, it was certainly the rule in the teaching profession.
Diversity is the 21st century word for discrimination.
Substitute diversity for discrimination and the meaning of the sentence immediately.
No doubt they will all be white male scientists. ——–The destruction of the west continues via the 5 main agendas —-Equality Diversity Race Gender and Climate.
It no longer matters as one of the males could wear a dress, buy some Tampax and claim to be a woman to ‘even’ up the statistics.
funny but true
“Four new scientists, including experts from UCL and Imperial College London, were hired to help lead those efforts.”
UCL and Imperial. These four new blokes are bloody plants for Billy’s mob.
That is the story in a nutshell.
Give qualifications to an AI machine and let it decide. May the best scientist win.
Were the men the best candidates for the job? If they were, then what’s the problem.
All these DIE targets are destroying Britain socially and economically. Cut it out and grow up.
