Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

People think being small will keep them safe. It won't. The reason we know who Mahmoud Kahlil is is because he was loud. Do you think he's the only person the administration has tried to disappear? He's just one of the first we've noticed

The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right. The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy. We must end that international embarrassment. Yes. We need Medicare for All.

In the past four weeks, Costco, which has embraced DEI initiatives, GAINED 7 million shoppers… Target, which got rid of DEI, LOST 5 million shoppers! That’s the power we have as consumers. Remember that.

So, Tories finally admit they left the EU with no plan “for growth”. They also had no plan for trade, science, the arts, business, jobs, training, education, travel, farming, fishing, borders, immigration, healthcare, regulations, food security… for ANYTHING… A catastrophe of prejudiced uselessness.

The PA role. A person may wear scrubs. A person may have a lanyard. A person may have a stethoscope. But none of these make them a doctor. A doctor is made by 10 - 15 years of training, not by a few easily bought accessories.

Big day in parliament. The truth that seems unreported is how kind, reasonable and thoughtful the debate has been between those who don't agree, constituents and MPs alike. Kim Leadbeater has led from the front with the kind of graft and compassion, anyone who knows her would have expected.

Seems the terrified silent majority don't have the numbers for the petition so they utilise a platform that allows manipulation and misinformation to promote a cause

You know its only a matter of time before Trump and his allies try to shut down Bluesky. If they can't control the narrative they're going to try to suppress those in opposition. We must fight them at every turn.

Looks like Musk's Bot army have been fully redirected against the Labour government now, his every other tweet is Retweeting their lies Seems like he is working alongside the right too, including Farage and his cronies The fake petition is their first ploy, here's the evidence it's manipulated

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

The General Election petition is another Reform con job. They are fucking traitors implementing Bannon’s Republican playbook. Good old fashioned British signees here. The fake patriots doing Putin’s work for him. Obviously. As usual.

"NHS managers who silence whistleblowers could be barred from working in the NHS" under new plans. I find it surprising there has never been any real regulation of NHS managers. For years it's been clear action is needed. But we have had years of inaction under the Tories and countless scandals.

The people who think Labour say one thing & do another obviously never read the Labour manifesto. Labour came into government promising to make the hard unpopular decision to fix the mess left by 14 years of Tory incompetence & ineptitude.

How many times do I need to say this? These are not expats, they are immigrants. You don’t “expat” somewhere, you emigrate, and that makes you an immigrant. I have never heard anyone refer to “Bangladeshi Expats” or “Polish Expats”, it’s always immigrants, so why not here?
