So excited to hear the incredible Gwen's poems on @BBCRadioCymru this month (and brush up my Welsh a bit!) https://t.co/PPPEo3LObH

Today sees the formal launch of the National PEWS chart.

It's been in development since 2018, piloted in a number of sites and demonstrated feasibility, usability and credibility (reduction in event rates in pilot sites versus national trend)

Great work, @Islingtonlibs on getting rid of library fines, to help with the cost of living crisis! Hope this means people will carry on using our brilliant libraries 👏

@Nabukeera @LouisCarserides @StanleyArts Hi @LouisCarserides, whereabouts in Stanley Halls are you?

[Beth Mackay @BethMMackay]

Brilliant! @LouisCarserides what can you do to help more people in SoNo (of all ages!) get out and about on their bikes?

[Beth Mackay @BethMMackay]

@silv24 Great to see you looking so happy. And who doesn’t love ice cream in February?! Xx

@livingstreets @LouisCarserides could you look at this in relation to the crossing between Tennison Road and Selhurst Road as the wait for the green man is often minutes!

@nn_neuro Congratulations! I’m working on epilepsy in the Children and Young People’s Transformation Programme team at NHSE - it’d be good to have a chat at some point. Could you message me your email address and I’ll get in touch?

@MartinSLewis Any idea whether I’ll be eligible for one, as I was rebanded from E to D at the end of last month (backdated to 1993)? Thanks

@GlamBrewingCo @GarethBale11 @Cymru Amazing! Any chance Tescos in England will be selling them too? If not, I’ll have to sort out some way to import them!

‼️ Rishi Sunak is the first Prime Minister to enter 10 Downing Street, having ALREADY committed a criminal offence while in government. ‼️

Are any journalists mentioning this? Or are they letting him paint himself as restoring integrity after Boris Johnson.

BREAKING: Rishi Sunak is now set to become UK's next prime minister, after the other candidate withdrew.

The ex-finance minister and his wife have an estimated $824 million fortune, while 14 million people in the UK cannot afford regular meals.
