Ridiculous BBC statement that ULEZ reduction of air pollution is “not all good news”. Pollution has been reduced by the measures. That is very good news! The fact that air is still polluted makes a strong case for the expansion of the ULEZ zone.

@RishiSunak will you repeat this statement in parliament? If so perhaps the HoC privileges committee will be interested in fact checking.

Tragically this these days it take honesty , courage , integrity and commitment to tell the truth . Because we are visibly oppressed , lobbied and controlled by dangerous influences . In time , probably short time , those who say boo to geese will be heroes . Stay with us

@ChrisGPackham It’s received little publicity on the BBC but Joan Salter made the same point directly to Braverman the other day. Braverman’s dismissal of her concerns was applauded by the Conservative Party crowd. Full video on the Freedom From Torture website ☮️

Just got home to see that one of my places of work is on fire . Lit and fanned by very few of those who also work there . But ignited by those who hate the truth being told and use hate to weaponise truths delivery . What a sorry mess we are in . . . a very sad day for the UK

@MFAminGP @padsbigsis @Parody_RCGP @EMISHealth SNOMED CT @SnomedCt was first released in January 2002. I guess when you say 2018 you are indicating when it was first used in a particular system or for a particular purpose.

Thanks to @lazycampers for refunding our last minute cancellation due to Covid. We look forward to rebooking our trip next year.

Curious that Grant Shapps on @BBCr4today say UK is most vaccinated country in the world. https://t.co/K2EgzXaBb9 seems to disagree.

@NadineDorries @Christian4BuryS Most of us want our flag to mean something honourable. We are sad when it is dishonoured as a mere wrapper for those who now lie to our Parliament. Can’t you see the absurdity of a PM failing to understand and follow the sensible rules set for us all during the pandemic.

[David Markwell @dcmarkwell]

@CarolineLucas Sorry to hear you chose this mistaken position. What undermines the trust of the majority is the irresponsible way a few people behave. When decisions of the irresponsible does damage to the health of so many people there is every reason to enact laws limit that harm.

As we move into the winter months and energy prices rocket, it cannot be right that the UK Government plans to cut #UniversalCredit by £20 a week this October. @DrAmirKhanGP is urging you to use your voice and to write to your MP to #KeepTheLifeline. https://t.co/Vr3tStP1dx

Good Morning @MarcusRashford @BukayoSaka87 @sterling7 @Sanchooo10

Keep being Legends 😎

#Respect

[Prof. Devi Sridhar @devisridhar]

Happy Monday!☀️ What incredible young talent England has in @BukayoSaka87 @Sanchooo10 @MarcusRashford- 👏 inspiring a whole generation of kids to dream big. And in the case of Rashford, actually getting govt to feed them too. Heroes.

What do Pure Maths and Archaeology have in common? They are both supposedly “useless” subjects under threat in Universities. If so, we need to think again about the definition of “utility”

[Heather Self @hselftax]

Here’s a thought, for all those who admire Marcus Rashford and have been expressing sympathy - how about making a donation to the charity he supports, @FareShareUK ?

A surge in donations would be a good way to show appreciation, I think.

@JessicaMarkwel1 It was a wonderful 3 days so many great views including the evening light over Bugeilyn near the end of day 2. Definitely worth the effort to fulfil a retirement challenge!
