After a slight delay.. our new article:

Current status and future perspectives on the mechanistic and pathophysiological understanding of long COVID

New review with @resiapretorius Kell, D. B., Zhao, H. and Pretorius, E. (2026) Fibrinaloid Microclots-Induced Microcirculation Dysfunction: Mechanism and Laser-Based Haemodynamic Validation. Cardiovasc Sci. 3, 10005. https://t.co/KLGhP11Yme #TeamClots

You’ve waited months for your operation.
You’ve waited hours in A&E.
And yet; thousands of doctors who want to become surgeons and emergency medics are being turned away.

In 2025, Emergency Medicine had 5,081 applicants for only 357 posts; around 14 applicants for one post. 5,399 doctors applied for just 630 Core Surgical Training posts; a ratio of 8.57 to 1.

These are doctors who’ve completed years of study and clinical training, passed rigorous exams, and are ready to serve patients. But the Government refuses to fund enough speciality training places for them.

So while patients lie on trolleys in corridors and operations are cancelled, fully trained doctors are left without a pathway to specialise.

This is a catastrophic failure of workforce planning. A deliberate Government imposed cap on doctor speciality training numbers that wastes talent, demoralises staff, and prolongs NHS waiting times.

If the Government is serious about tackling long waiting lists and rebuilding the NHS, it must expand funded training posts and use the workforce we already have.

The NHS is falling apart, yet doctors are blocked from caring for patients.

In 2025, 20,000 more applied than there were available training posts to become Consultants/GPs. Doctors are being shut out because the Government won’t fund enough speciality training & post CCT places.

And those FY1 doctors who *are* working are paid just £18.62/hr with over £100,000 of student debt, despite providing life saving care.

This is catastrophic workforce planning; wasting doctors while patients face long waiting lists.

Locking doctors out of specialty training isn’t an accident; it’s a deliberate political choice.

Is it time for a British ship to be sent to aid the Flotilla and protect the British citizens on board?

RT if is.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

I keep thinking about this. Like, there are actual grown adult human beings arguing that it's necessary to starve babies to death because Hamas might get some rice cakes. Like, what? What the fuck? What the fuck is wrong with people?

‘What disturbs you the most about the Glastonbury chants?’
‘They get more attention than the genocide of Gazans.’

Journalist @rachshabi, who is Jewish, weighs in on the fallout of Bob Vylan’s controversial performance.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Proscribing Palestine Action is an outrageous and authoritarian crackdown on the right to oppose genocide.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

This is about the right to oppose genocide.

This is about our democratic freedoms.

📢 NEW REPORT:
A year-long analysis of BBC coverage of Israel’s war on Gaza reveals a pattern of bias, double standards & silencing of Palestinian voices.
Despite 34x more Palestinian deaths, Israeli fatalities received 33x more coverage per death.

@bmj_latest @PaulGarnerWoof I’m just going to leave this here. Dave Putrino speaks for the vast majority of the scientists & medics, with *actual* expertise who *actually* work in the IACC field researching and treating patients with LC&ME/CFS. Maybe time to get on board with the science? It’s long overdue

[Putrino Lab @PutrinoLab]

Again for those in the back:
👏🏼 PEM 👏🏼 is 👏🏼 NOT 👏🏼 deconditioning

Symptoms associated with effort expenditure in #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other energy limiting illnesses are physiological, not “preferential”

Thanks to @RobWust for this incredible work.

Another post, for those who missed it, of our preprint on blood stasis in #TCM and how it relates to fibrinaloid microclots #pwME #pwLC #TeamClots https://t.co/HMNuCBzs8l. Now out for peer review.

[Dr Haseena Wazir @DrHWazir]

General practice is full of high risk patients. It takes 10 years to become a GP for a good reason.

However, we have physician associates with only 2 years of training seeing unwell patients. This should not be happening without strict safety regulations.

It’s time to stop.

Yesterday, in response to my question in Parliament, David Lammy confirmed to me that Israel had broken international law in Gaza.

Today, the government rejected that claim.

They had it right the first time.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits — forcing more disabled people and children into poverty — the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over £10 million.

It would raise £24 billion — five times the savings from these cuts.

This is austerity 2.0.
