And Covid is airborne, there is still no #CleanAir in our hospitals apart from in OT and staff are still not being given ffp3 respirators to protect themselves & patients.

We've just learned that the person at the MHRA whose letter caused Wes 'I follow the clinical evidence' Streeting to cancel the puberty blockers trial is Professor Jacob George, the GC who enjoyed mocking trans people on his social media account.
Why did Wes Streeting cover up his name?
The last sentence nails it.
"Keir may have been a disappointment as prime minister domestically. But it doesnβt bear thinking about the state weβd be in if Kemi or Farage were in Downing Street right now."
I completely agree and would very much like to sign this but unfortunately the link will not let me do so. Have tried numerous times and each time it times out.
The precedent is eerily, chillingly precise. What the current Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is doing to immigrants and refugees today is almost a carbon copy of what Sir William Joynson-Hicks was doing 100 years ago. And that's not a good thing. My column.

Completely agree with this. However I was under the impression that they were very much trying to out-reform Reform.

We dont want or need a war with Iran. After previous bombing, Trump assured us he had βdecimated β Iranβs nuclear capabilities.
We are at war because Netanyahu told Trump to crush them. Israel has long wanted to dominate Iran.
But make no mistake, this is not about nukes and its not for America
The real threat to democracy doesn't come from 'family voting'. It comes from the losing side refusing go accept they've lost

The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.
And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.
See the problem here?
Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.
"droposol": a made-up word obfuscating the gap between infection control's out-of-date-since-1934 "5-micron error" and reality (plus a claim that the presence of large droplets magically makes aerosols less aerosol-y).
Think about how much trouble you'd have to be in to think *this* is the way out.
Not so very different from some of the views expressed by members of JCVI in the context of Covid Vaccines. This from 2021. A view which seems to prevail in the uk given the ongoing very tight rationing of these vaccines.
β οΈ Natasha Tsangarides, an associate director at Freedom from Torture, said:
βYusufβs speech was a grotesque display of ethnonationalist, authoritarian cruelty. His divisive and dangerous proposals threaten to divide families and wreak terror and chaos in our communities.β
If you want concentration camps in the UK, people being grabbed off the streets, or murdered on them, five year olds being separated from their parents and locked up #VoteReform
OAF OF ALLEGIANCE: The implications of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsorβs arrest β and the lingering image thatβs so good they hung it in the Louvre β are still occupying most minds. Officials have made clear that theyβll consider legislation to remove the ex-prince from the royal line of succession once the police investigation is wrapped up β but MPs want to be able to vent in a Commons debate far sooner. Great care will need to be taken not to prejudice a potential case (and the kingβs brother denies all wrongdoing).
Act early and it's to protect the public.
Act late and it's to protect the institution.
Screen shot from Paul Emberyβs X account: Respect to this police officer. Confronted by radicals demanding the arrest of a Christian preacher on the grounds that Whitechapel "is a Muslim area" she was calm and professional and gave them short shrift. Let's see more of this from the police. Has a video of a woman police officer talking to a group of Muslim men
This clip is all over the other place and has made its way onto GB News and Talk TV so Iβll do a bit of an explainer here too!
The clip doing the rounds is of a fantastic police officer telling a group of Muslim men that a Christian preacher nearby is entitled to freedom of expression.

We don't test new antibiotics against placebo for the same reason. Or new cancer drugs.
Seen quite a bit of this approach over the last 5 or 6 years tbh. But this was particularly shocking.
This was hosted by an employee of Cambridge University in Cambridge University facilities, surely this must mean this was hosted under the banner of Cambridge University. I wonder what they think of this.
People are saying this is a legacy the likes of which no one has ever seen before. #epsteinfiles
Absolutely disgusting. Yes I'm unsurprised but how has our country fallen to a level where naked racism can be broadcast like this?
Staggering that 24% of voters in this advanced country continue to believe in a bunch of entitled bigots with unworkable policies, whose very ideas put us in the abject chaos we are in. Truly God awful idiots, and I make no apology for saying that.
He has no idea who she is and she probably paid him for the photo opportunity.

Who pays for what, exactly?
I get charged Β£50 a month to park on an area of poorly maintained gravel in a rural hospital where there no viable public transport links and no safe cycling routes. Incidentally cycling 10 miles for a 3 o'clock in the morning emergency is not really a good option.
π¨When we go to hospital, itβs rarely for something easy. But patients and their families are being immediately met with fees just to park their cars. And these charges are going up!
Iβve just signed the petition to Scrap hospital parking charges now
act.38degrees.org.uk/act/parking-...
It is immoral to charge patients and utter stupidity to charge staff. This is nothing to do with the environment and everything to do with making money
