She was such an amazing person, wonderful scientist and fun to be with. I feel privileged to have known her and will remember some of our conversations fondly

This delay in paying compensation is unconscionably cruel. These poor people have suffered enough. I sat on the psychosocial expert panel in the inquiry, maybe we should reconvene and reexamine the extra psychological and social harm now being caused?

This is so alarming- affecting not just the insane people who voted for children to oversee vital public services

Would the UK media outlets please publicise the opinions of the Lib Dems and the Greens instead of this seemingly endless promotion of Reform who only have 6 MPs for goodness sake.

Good grief whatever next

Infected blood victims call for faster compensation. It is beyond belief that a year after the report was published, many victims have still not received anything

Rema, many non-commercially available comm skills courses are charitably funded. Lots have no evidence base for efficacy or pedagogical basis. We occasionally run facilitator training courses but these are for specific areas ie issues re genetic testing or metastatic disease. See SHORE-c website

Ukraine has exposed Trump’s true identity: as a vandal, an autocrat, a gangster and a fool | Jonathan Freedland

For goodnees sake when will Labour wake up and try to reverse the damage done to us by BREXIT www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

5 yrs ago we wrote the psychosocial report for the infected blood inquiry. How much further psycholosocial harm has been suffered by the infected who are still alive and their affected families due to delays in paying any compensation is unconscionable

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

This continues to be such a shameful episode

youtu.be/pvT3aQjLxdE Here's a 🎶 twist on Coldplay's thumping #VivaLaVida we're calling "Puppets on a Kremlin String?" It reflects on the grotesque media spectacle hosted by #Trump & #Vance yesterday at the White House. In solidarity with Zelensky & Ukraine. #SlavaUkraini #Dontabandonthem

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Beyond belief. Is this really the man we’re going to fawn over with a State Visit? It’s time for our PM to pick a side

Watching our prime minister low towing to that vile orange buffoon in the White House sickening albeit necessary. Bet the King is thrilled about a state visit!

How likely is it that a pt in a Phase 2 oncology trial will receive a drug that is ultimately FDA-approved? This study says 16.2% (19.4% for NCCN off-label recommendations as well). However, when using an ESMO scale assessing "substantial clinical benefit" it's 9.3% academic.oup.com/jnci/advance...

Be afraid, be very afraid- what on earth has happened to the US

Why on earth am I continually surprised by things this terrible man says?

Intrigued as to why Danny Kruger feels that the assessment of competency and coercion by one high court judge is preferable to a multidisciplinary panel of social workers, psychiatrists and retired judges in Assisted Dying.

There are several reasons Musk wants to control Treasury payments. None of them are good. An unelected and unaccountable billionaire wants to dictate what working families can and cannot afford www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

While the assisted dying bill goes through committee stage, crucial that people realise we need to support our hospices who are dependent on charity. They are not mutually exclusive aims - better palliative care & assisted dying for those whose pain & dignity is not resolved despite great care

‘It’s been nice talking to you, Ken’: imagining Starmer’s first call with Trump | John Crace

What a breath of sanity is Polly Toynbee! Here’s what Labour should learn from Donald Trump: think bigger, think faster

Trump now making a series of rambling remarks to young staffers and guests. Stumbling from topic to topic. Not entirely clear what the aim of the speech is. Mainly talking about all of the things he didn't include in the main speech but wishes he did.

It will come as no surprise to anyone to learn that Donald Trump repeatedly made false and misleading claims during his inaugural address www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Anyone else like me finding it hard to tune into the inauguration and sickened by the world’s faux sycophancy of this vile felon?

Wish the world had more people like you Dale!

Absolutely spot on from @carolinelucas.bsky.social

Hope that those who vilified us remainers feel a tad remorseful

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

Good grief we’ll be having to apply to the Water Aid charity next, what a parlous state our country is in. Water companies should hang their heads in shame

Someone somewhere with a legal brain please find a way to stop this

I’m old enough to remember Boris Johnson telling businesses Brexit paperwork could go in a bin. Now they need a warehouse to store it in

Was it really 8 years ago that our country made this catastrophic mistake?

Watching the quite breathtaking opening of Notre-Dame but bemused as to why Trump has a prime position sitting next to Macron?

Dear BBC don’t you have any resources to edit Wallace out - one middle class woman of an older age would be heartily glad to enjoy Masterchef without him. I could even help you with editing!

I’m intrigued as to why a few hours before the assisted dying bill, the BBC are playing this morning an item about Harold Shipman. Coincidence or deliberate?

Irrespective of the vote today on assisted dying we MUST do more to improve access and investment in supportive and palliative care. It is outrageous that hospices are so dependent on charity

I've decided that when researchers say a treatment is "well tolerated" it actually means "I can tolerate my patients having toxicity" and nothing to do with what the patient thinks. We can only make such a statement if we use patient-reported outcome or experience measures.
