If NHS trusts hadn’t had to pay more than £1.8 billion in *interest charges* to private companies, that money could have paid for the starting salaries of over 50,000 NHS doctors 😮🚨

@FrankensteinGDT @RealGDT What about the UK?

[Daniel Finkelstein @Dannythefink]

This is very wise. I also think it will prove very difficult. I have been struck by the vehemence of opponents of assisted dying, who seem certain it will produce coercive deaths and are not much moved by the terrible stories of pain and suffering which motivate supporters. Nor reassured by any safeguards put in place. They think our position shameful and a dialogue has proven hard. But Luke is totally right. This is a very difficult subject and there are strong arguments, as well as feelings, on both sides. We should try and listen respectfully to each other. And I am determined to do that even when it isn’t reciprocated.

@bbculp Or did they get cause and effect confused and it's actually that runners who wear tights are 400x more likely to perform static stretching

They say we get the leaders we deserve.

Either that has just been disproven, or this is not the America we all thought we were living in.

@BarristerSecret They did, it was the last election result.

Sadly the patient is still in denial claiming there's nothing wrong!

@rhipratchett Maggie Smith = Granny Weatherwax
Dawn French = Nanny Ogg
Julia Sawalha = Magrat

[Struan Lownie @StruanGraeme]

@kvlly Yeah but you've delivered other projects and when the costs came in thought I could have done that X times over for the same money!

[Struan Lownie @StruanGraeme]

@JujuliaGrace Theres an important context lots of reporting is missing. If the Shadow Secretary of state for XXX attends an event they have to declare it, if the Secretary of XXX attends the same event it's an official function and they don't declare it. So the figures are distorted!

@ClinOncDoc @doctor_oxford @AlderHey @RCSnews @RCPCHtweets @rcpch_trainees @EstherMcVey1 as my MP what are you doing to address this danger to my and other constituents health?

[Struan Lownie @StruanGraeme]

@dcrainmakerblog Am I reading too much into this, or does this sound very like trying to control the launch day reviews?

[Struan Lownie @StruanGraeme]

@JohnSimpsonNews I didn't quite make it to your evening at the Lowry, but would love to hear of all your scary moments in war zones and interviewing people of dubious sanity when did you most think "I may have underestimated the risk here!"

[Struan Lownie @StruanGraeme]

I remember when I lived in Conneticut a girl catching Canada Geese on the local lake, whenever she did it everyone else just stood gaping going "this is going to go horribly wrong any second now!"
