Don't call them Farage Riots. It makes him really upset.

Fellow AHPs, has anyone ever arranged a walking group for patients and would be keen to share any learning outcomes with me?

Can you imagine how furious you would be if you developed polio and lived, but had lifelong side effects, and when you turn 12-13 find out that all of this could have been avoided if you had been vaccinated but mom and dad saw a youtube video and their facebook group said not to

It’s extraordinary. Protesters demanding an immediate ceasefire — echoing the call of 71% of the public — are presented as a threat to democracy, but a Prime Minister who ignores the public and erodes their rights says he’s protecting democracy.

10 rules of biscuits:

1. When opening a packet, any broken biscuits must be consumed immediately.

2. Never dunk a biscuit for too long, you will ruin both your biscuit and your tea. Double sadness.

3. Always offer biscuits to guests, even if they claim they're not interested (they're probably fibbing).

4. Don't be the person who snatches the last biscuit of a kind unless you're prepared to face the consequences - i.e. a new enemy.

5. Always offer a hot drink with biscuits, obviously.

6. Bring out a posh selection of biscuits (metal tin, two layers separated by a sheet of springy purple cardboard, usually called a “collection”) for special occasions.

7. Always pretend you haven’t seen a plate of biscuits being passed around until they’re offered to you, then act pleasantly surprised.

8. Utilise the phrases “I really mustn’t”, “ooh, go on then” and “if you’re having one”.

9. Wrap biscuits up when not in use, either by pushing the open packet up against a wall, or by using a jar, tin or box.

10. Always have more biscuits in stock than you think you need. Never run out. Running out of biscuits is like running out of air: not ideal.

There are many more rules, but these 10 provide a good starting point.

Bristol Green Party have issued a statement regarding the protection of Yew Tree Farm

This really is excellent, with clear call-to-actions for Bristol Council, the developers, the agents and the land owners.

Chapeau @bristolgreen!

Balloon releases are one of the worst ways to remember someone who has sadly left us. You wouldn't chuck a load of plastic bags/bottles down the street and balloons are the same. Plant some flowers/trees or something. You can see that every day if you want to.

Where’s that iron clad commitment? Why are you not here? Why are you silent? Why did you give a lease to the person responsible for this damage?

Would like to know which MPs could vote against an immediate ceasefire in Gaza after watching this visualisation of the children killed so far. Feel free to tag your MP. #ceasefirenow

“I’ll expect you to feed me, bathe me, brush my hair, hold my hand, recognise me when I have ceased to recognise myself and be the last human touch I may feel before I die.

But I do not think, at the same time, that you deserve a family life.”

How many people wait longer than 12 hours on a trolley for an EMERGENCY hospital bed?

January 2011: 17 people.
January 2024: 54,308 people

That's what 13 years of Tory rule has done to #NHS - #SOSNHS

@BillingMartin @adamdobson123 Yes! So many patients I used to see didn't understand their diagnosis.

Plus can we stop using the phrase 'wear and tear'? It paints the picture that the patient has literally worn out their joints, they move less, totally discouraging suitable exercise!
