@wesstreeting You are only getting the good reports, in the real world, repeat prescriptions are so difficult to get, a GP appointment impossible, Pharmacies struggling because prescription charge too low, if you search all us not as rosie as you paint!
@wesstreeting Waiting lists still over 6 million.
Unemployed GPs whilst patients are forced to see PAs/ACPs.
A dispute with doctors unresolved a year later.
Failure after failure after failure.
Considering the run of PMs we've had maybe you've proven yourself worthy for the job.

@uk_biobank I'm interested to know why it is not a condition under terms of use for researchers analysing data from ukbiobank that they publish findings in open access journals.

@jamiegoode Not sure it's that great! 🤨 The results appear to be highly influenced by the GC signature of oak volatiles, so perhaps it's a method of analysis to identify the forests oaks have come from, or the barrel supplier?
The hypothesis could easily be tested by sensitive individuals by eating a plate of lightly cooked onions combined with a glass of white wine (200 g onions contain approximately 10 times the quantity of quercetin found in a large 250 ml glass of red wine).
New research suggests that it might be quercetin - not sulfites or biogenic amines - that are responsible for red wine headaches https://t.co/9UjvV8R8Ep
