Paper from York recently showing that many people with severe mental illness have little fruit or vegetables in their diet. Another area where innovative interventions could make a difference. @bdlor @SimonGilbody @HullYorkMed @MHARG_york @HealthSciYork https://t.co/Es4QuJsBah

Excellent article about the stable prevalence of depression despite massive increases in treatment rates (mostly pharmacological): If these treatments cause symptom remission and prevention of relapse, then why is there no decline in disorder prevalence?

Tomorrow the British government is expected to publish legislation overriding significant portions of the NI protocol, against the wishes of the majority of NI parties, people, & businesses.

This isn't about protecting the GFA, it's pure political theatre at the expense of NI.
