In 1922, insulin co-discoverer Frederick Banting refused to profit from the discovery and offered it to the world as a global public good.

Just heard Wes Streeting blaming #resident #doctors for not working due to the rising numbers of the flu.
He's the reason they're #striking- not paitents, every argument he uses could easily be used back at him.
Pay them, improve working conditions - stop the strike. Simple.

Criticism of FGM based on βwestern sensationalismβ, say academics

I cannot believe we are back in the world of "cultural relativity" when we are talking about child abuse.

Last week I was hearing direct from African women about the work they are doing on the ground to end FGM. Listen to African Women!
