@RestIsPolitics @campbellclaret I can't imagine any of these potential candidates going to meet Xi and Donald and managing an oil crisis or an AI drone war. Starmer needs different people around him.

Legal aid reforms in #KingsSpeech will increase the number of legally aided inquests from 400 to 11,400 a year. Costing £185 million.

Finally ending the inequality of arms where NHS Trusts turn up with a phalanx of lawyers against still grieving families often alone and confused

@ShaunLintern I think thus came in with the Medicines Act? Likely hospitals being antsy about it hence the new requirement. I'm always sent from pillar to post. I hope it includes past records.

@AngelaRayner @PeterStefanovi2 Labour lost seats to reform because of immigration and house prices inflation which have just reached the North. You are already halfway there to fixing it through changes in the justice system, so focus on the positive changes made instead of 'vision' and leadership.

🚨The York Report, submitted to the MHRA in 2012, is included in a wider summary of evidence published in 2014, which reveals a shocking history of how regulators, surgeon societies and senior NHS leaders knew it was causing problems – but allowed its use to continue regardless.

🚨The Evidence on Benefits and Risks of Vaginal Mesh states: “It is clear the impact on the quality of life for some patients is severe” P39and reveals that:
•Up to three quarters of women experienced recurring urinary tract infections (76%)
•One in four women experienced pain (25%). Page 47
•More than half (57%) had sexual difficulties after prolapse mesh and 10% after mesh slings for incontinence.

🚨In an 8-year period (2005 to 2013) there were 401 reports of harm to the MHRA – during a period when mesh was not widely known about or understood as it was not reported regularly in regional and national print and broadcast media until Sling The Mesh launched in 2015.

🚨The MHRA “fully recognised that adverse events are under reported for all medical devices.” P39

Why This Imaging Pattern Should Stop You From Reaching for Valproate

Valproate is strictly contraindicated in unrecognized POLG disease due to risk of fatal hepatic failure.

Thus the perirolandic sign is not just radiology trivia
It can prevent catastrophic treatment decisions
