Pretty lucky with my cards but I've got M.E and Meniere's Disease which are sods.

@LaylaMoran That is wonderful. Many congratulations.

Is he the multi-billionaire James Dyson who bought estates to become one of Britain’s biggest landowners?

The same flag-waving Dyson who backed Brexit then moved his HQ from Wiltshire to Singapore?

I do believe he is.

TRUMP: My political opponents should face a firing squad.

HARRIS: Here’s my sixteen-point plan to directly target middle class families and help them succeed.

NEW YORK TIMES: Both candidates trade barbs in the final week of the race.

Lots of over-the-top coverage right now about the £1m cap on inheritance tax agricultural property relief (APR).

Quick thread:

@Channel4News Why, when you have a candidate who says the most revolting things and acts like a dictator in waiting, do you choose to make a huge issue of poor old Joe’s slip of the tongue. I thought Ch4 news was above this crazy false equivalence.

What Israeli forces are doing in besieged North #Gaza cannot be allowed to continue — @JoyceMsuya, acting head @UNOCHA

“The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying. Such blatant disregard for basic humanity and for the laws of war must stop”

@LBC @wesstreeting @ShelaghFogarty Last month 200+ healthcare workers wrote to Wes calling for urgent action to make NHS care safe for people with ME. He hasn’t yet responded. A recent coroner’s report said that more lives are at risk without change. Can he give us an answer live on air?

This whimsy is just nauseating in the context of how the @ukhomeoffice treats actual flesh and blood human beings.

If possible could any of our followers who haven’t already please retweet the tweet below? We believe it is so important to support those scientists who are on our side and spread news of their amazing research.

[Oxfam International Media Team @newsfromoxfam]

🚨Oxfam mourns the tragic loss of our partners at @Juzoor, Dr. Ahmad Al-Najar and midwife Laila Jneid, killed by Israeli airstrikes on Jabalia. They were providing lifesaving health care in Gaza.

Attacking aid workers is a war crime.

This story is one of the most disturbing I've ever covered. It's about how the views of a deeply weird ideological sect affected science, medicine and the media, with devastating impacts on patients. Please read and pass on. This horror has to stop. https://t.co/qVjkbiGQY3

Maeve Boothby O’Neill died because of a discredited view of ME. How was this allowed to happen? https://t.co/qZ9L5C0UdN
