Can anyone tell me why the US cutting Alzheimer's research funding is good? The desire to pay no tax for personal gain instead of paying a little bit to defeat this awful disease is insane.

Big shout out to @peterhart.bsky.social and @garyba.bsky.social for their ww1 podcast that keeps me company on the tube to work. They make history so much more interesting as they include the personal experiences of the soldiers that fought.

Serious question here, if we want to provide clean(ish) affordable energy and more importantly energy security, why don't we build more nuclear power stations and make them state owned? (and put a clause in saying they can never be privatised or sold off if Margaret comes back from the other side)

I just went on the hell hole next door and see Piers Morgan is advocating Elon Musk sort out the NHS. A man with private health insurance suggesting Musk could make the NHS better. Twitter opinions make as much sense as monkey tennis

The ref in the Wales versus French match was shocking. Surely the linesmen and TMO could have stepped in to say he was literally missing everything the French did and making up stuff to penalise Wales.

How long do we have to wait before we can start asking for referendum on re-joining the EU? I would say 15 years is more than long enough to see if there is a benefit or not, so about 2030?

Cachu Hwch is a Welsh expression to describe how I felt at 6am this morning after catching my son's cold. However, the humble ibuprofen has subsequently changed my medical landscape this morning. What a remarkable drug. (apologies for the split infinitive)

I cannot work out if battery man has always been like this but hid it, is just uninformed, too lazy to do his homework & believes it, he's so rich & tyrannical that he has no one to stand up to him & point out the facts are wrong or knows it's wrong but doesn't care? BBC 👍 x.com/BBCRosAtkins...

This is our company, we have partnered and embedded ourselves into the world famous National Hospital for Neurology at Queen's Square. This is the quickest way to get our test for Parkinson's disease into the NHS. This is massive. www.uclh.nhs.uk/news/nhs-pat...

I had an interesting tube journey in one morning with a guy who designed and built hospitals. I was intrigued to find hospitals are made to last 30-40 years then need a major overhaul, and which sometimes making a new hospital is more cost effective.

The wise words of Lord Acton "power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely". You only have to read a certain tech billionaire's Twitter stream to confirm this saying is as relevant today as it was 140 years ago.
