Have you made your voice heard today?

Join us and our partner @hardtoport in telling the Icelandic government we need the slaughter of whales to end now! Their own report has revealed the shocking truth about the cruelty inflicted on whales - our enormous, intelligent climate allies. It's time to stop whaling.

@MCR_SB_Research 😂😂😂 top marks for effort!

[Dr Phil Hammond 💙 @drphilhammond]

The @Conservatives need to be judged on their 13 years in office come the next election. Public services have got considerably worse, waiting times are at an all-time high, there are mass vacancies & public sector pay has fallen well behind inflation. They are clearly all related

@UKCycleChat I hit a pothole on Monday night. Thankfully stayed upright but blew a tire and jettisoned my bottle. The roads are particularly bad after the latest snow storm.

@NorthRoadCycles @NorthRoadJane I’d love a “Cassiopeia”. Bit of a different name structure but would hyperlink to the constellation and how it mirrors our progress in life .

[Karl @Dr_KarlOG]

I’m interested to hear what measures your trust have implemented since the @ONS published a 9.5% increase in stillbirth nationally for 2021? #obstetrics

[Karl @Dr_KarlOG]

Anyone else fed up of the NHS being put down and criticised? Let’s start a thread of positive stories in healthcare instead. What good have you experienced in the NHS recently? Comment below and RT #NHS

89% of eligible women in England are receiving MgSO4 for fetal neuroprotection. All regions now exceeding 📈 85% target. Time to celebrate these incredible midwives and obstetric colleagues who continue to transform lives day in and day out @MidwivesRCM @BAPM_Official @RCObsGyn

This is how complications are avoided. Both mother and baby are better off if routinely delivered after 34 Weeks with pre-eclampsia. Important to get the diagnosis right though.
