Thank you @RhonddaBryant - #Concussed by @PlantedSam is indeed a really important book. Everyone who cares about sport can become part of conversation on how to address sport's concussion crisis, through our event series here:

Do you love swifts? Do you want to help them? Book a surgery appointment with your MP to discuss how they can advocate for swifts? Email me at [email protected] with your MP’s name & I will send you a short briefing note you can read & give them. Small action.BIG impact
Anyone: what you thinking about?
Me: swifts Soon they’ll be gone, this year’s chicks beginning a maiden flight lasting up to 3 years. By next year the UK’s breeding population will have declined by an estimated 10k. They need @UKLabour to mandate swift bricks

This is how ridiculous sentencing for environment protestors is. It’s plainly wrong if violence and even robbery are treated less seriously. Environment protesting is an act of conscience. Our laws have been perverted to create these extreme punishments for peaceful protest. The Tories have been kicked out, let’s get rid of their twisted laws too.
🔥 "In this society, we cannot put people behind bars who have simply urged us to do what we know in our hearts is the right thing to do."

How many ex players dying from motor neurone disease and other neurodegenerative diseases is rugby prepared to tolerate before it says enough is enough?

🏗️ Talks on Grangemouth
We're just getting started!
Thank you to the great @PaulKimmage for writing this wonderful article recounting the work I have done for the past decade highlighting concussion in rugby. Enormously grateful to friends and colleagues in the media who continue to recognise my work and the sacrifices I've made.
2014: David Cameron, "We don't need any more on-shore wind.. What's we've got in the planning system is enough to provide for our needs"
2024: Ed Miliband, "The on shore wind ban in England has been in place for more than 9 years. We've been in government for 72 hours, we've lifted it.. We've got to become a clean energy super power for energy independence.. To cut bills.. To create good jobs.. And to tackle the climate crisis"
We've lost a decade of green energy revolution because of the Conservative party. Where could we be now if Cameron didn't appease climate skeptics and the fossil fuel industry? Good work Labour 👏
@ProgressiveRug Bizarre. Is this like a Net Zero Brain Injury programme. You can just keep moving the point of contact with bullshit PR stuff.
Maybe you can buy concussion credits by planting things.

This is magnificent news. @RhonddaBryant has been the only politician to stay with the brain injury in sport scandal for more than a decade. I look forward to continuing to work with him on this huge public health issue how he is in Government.
