@argyllandbute @ElectoralCommUK @lucyidunn I do hope the final vote counting will allow for delayed postal votes to be received and returned. 4 adults in household and only one postal vote received despite simultaneous requests!!! Not acceptable

“Chronic underfunding has resulted in crisis level speech and language therapy provision meaning people aren’t getting the expert rehabilitation to speak, communicate, process information, eat, drink and swallow,” says lead author and RCSLT advisor Camilla Dawson.

What boss do you want to be remembered for?

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

A philosophy that's served me well over the years is "always assume that other people are acting with a positive intent". That's why Hanlon's Razor is such a useful mental model. It states "never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by neglect." Other versions replace "neglect" with "stupidity". It helps us see the world in a more positive light, stops negative assumptions and improves relationships: https://t.co/TvSB9kA6NP By @farnamstreet' Graphic: Matthew Cook.

The importance of silence

[TalkingMats @TalkingMats]

Giving time and using silence is key to the Talking Mats process. What goes on it that silence? Read this blog from members of our Research Network to find out their thoughts and the Scots term they use to describe what may happen in the silence.

[alison gray @asarahgray]

@rcsltscot Well done all involved
