@cleanupbritain read the article in the Times about you today. Well done for taking on the highways agency. Travelling the A1 a few months back made my blood boil. Good luck with the case and interested to hear how I can support.

"Renault and Aston Martin backer Geely to launch UK firm injecting £6bn and creating 19,000 jobs"

Gosh, doesn't that sound great? Tory MPs and the RW press have been feasting on the story.

Pity it's not true.

Let's take this step by step...

@johnwgunnison @DonaldClarke63 @mrjamesob They did. My wife carry’s blue so me and kids jumped into the non-eu line and got processed a little bit quicker. Queue was more even as flight was from UK

@SimonCalder @kayle10 @grantshapps @sajidjavid @transportgovuk @dfds_uk I’m travelling to Ireland on Dec27th. Where will be I be able to get a professionally administered lateral flow test on Christmas Day/Boxing day. My sister in US can self administer under supervision from Pro in India.

@AineMorley @SimonCalder According to @SimonCalder’s article in the Independent, it says ROI is excluded. Have not verified this?

Very proud of my wife today running the Manchester Marathon to raise money for the neonatal surgical unit @SheffChildrens. Go B!

The unit cares for babies across the wider region that need surgery within a few weeks of birth.

#NHSpay a thread: It doesn’t matter what you think about the 3% offer for NHS staff, it simply isn’t affordable within the existing NHS budget, which is a problem as the gov doesn’t seem prepared to make any extra funds available to increase it [1/13 - sorry]

@MFT_Chief_Pharm @MFT_Pharmacy @timskeeler @Gareth_Adams1 @john_landers1 @MFT_CSS All the best on your retirement Richard. Always had time for a chat even as a pre-reg. Good luck!

@ChrisMGra If it’s more evidence you want of the excess deaths have a look at this excellent analysis. Ta dah!

NEW: a common response to reports of hospitals struggling this winter is "it’s no different to a bad flu season!"

I’ve tracked down historical data on flu ICU admissions, including winter 2017-18, a record high.

Here’s how England’s Covid winter compares to a bad flu season 📹

[Johnny Bane @alchemitek]

2020 saw excess deaths at a level not seen since 1940! And don’t forget that is despite the lockdowns and restrictions. A stark reminder of how deadly CV-19 has been #COVID19 #nhs

THREAD – Mortality 2020

Today we published England & Wales mortality statistics for the w/e 25 Dec

Nearly a full year’s data for 2020

In the last 52 weeks there were:
c.604k deaths registered across E&W

This is:
c.73k deaths (14%) above the 5-yr avg = excess deaths

[Johnny Bane @alchemitek]

@ChrisMGra Predicted 500,000 deaths IF NO ACTION WAS TAKEN. It’s a simple enough concept. Have a read of Nick’s 8 Twitter post in the thread regarding excess deaths.
