Genuinely shocked at this..

Absolutely! That doctor was outrageous on the radio. How can anything be 'over' diagnosed? If its clinically indicated then it is diagnosed. End of.

Dont like all this dance music on Six Music breakfast show :( where are the guitars? @6music.bsky.social

1. A few years ago, people like me were widely attacked in the media for “declinism”. How could we fail to see that we were heading into a capitalist utopia, in which everything would keep getting better? This is a thread about what we could see that our critics could not. 🧵

So loving @debg_debg Deb Grant on @6musi.bsky.social this week... a much needed lift at a miserable time www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Feeling somewhat nervous about developments in international relations 😱

Yes, this worries me hugely... for society and myself.

I fear its too late to stem the tide of concrete, but good to have an informed counter argument.

🚨 Inequality in the UK is one of the highest in Europe. What can be done to address this? 📅 Join us at LSE on 24 February for "Peak Injustice: Solving Britain's Inequality Crisis." Hear from Professor Danny Dorling & more. https://buff.ly/3EiVrxF.

Wow. I can't believe this debate on BBC Radio4! So women are a minority in high achievers because they lack 'masculine energy'? Really??! Here comes the manosphere and Trump inspired anti-feminism backlash! @bbc @antisocial www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I'm covering Yin yoga tonight at We Are Wellness, Headingly. It might be cold outside but it will be warm and cozy inside for some juicy slow unwinding. Come and join me! #yinyoga #wellness

Brexit Curse British food sales to Europe plummeted by a fifth since 2018. In real terms exports down 20%; imports down 11%. With divergence in environmental, animal care standards, this market won't be recovered. UK isn't the 51st state. Must rejoin the EU. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Curse of Private Equity PE has devoured water companies, transport systems, communications networks, power providers, schools/hospitals through the PFI scheme. Govts are handing GP surgeries, dental services & the NHS to it. Result will be the same. Govts serve money not people. archive.ph/N5eKT

Very pleased to be published as co-author in Springer journal Systematic Reviews. This realist review of blended IRL and digital services for disabled people will be so valuable. #openaccess @leedsbeckett.bsky.social @daniellevarley.bsky.social @lbu-rae.bsky.social rdcu.be/d41VC

That's it. That one man has been permitted to own Twitter, fill the sky with satellites, bribe an electorate and intervene in nations' politics is petrifying and wrong. I have left his platform and only post here now. The world

This really should be widely heard...

For anyone like me who despairs of the modern world, this amazing overview by @RoryStewartUK is essential listening open.spotify.com/episode/5oei... …

Sunrise over Leeds. Happy to be moving over from a dodgy megalomaniac's plaything.

Some amazingly uplifting music from Senegal at the Howard Assembly Rooms Leeds. Loved dancing to Seckhou Kaita and his koura and band #leedsmusic
