Hi @tomhanks! I've been running for a very long time now - like 15,500 miles. Looks like I'm heading in to the desert. Would love a guide who'd been there before... You doing anything the end of this month? @WWF @peacedirect #monumentvalley #prettytired https://t.co/vnwbuIRSjR

This is very worrying: either is a loophole and not complying with the law, or this is actually still allowed / legal - which is even more terrifying! #unethical #harmful #Pharmaceutical #laws #freedomtoprescribe #EHR #Ireland https://t.co/6i5ADd7UTf

[Mark Murphy @drmarkmurphy]

I don’t see pharmaceutical reps in practice (as a personal policy).

Now, I see pharmaceutical advertising WITHIN the Electronic Health Record, to suggest I presribe a different product.

How is this allowed?!

@Rukshan @McGarryPadraig @Gillman0John @WalleyRay

[Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre]

Oh, wow. Contextual targetted drug adverts aimed at doctors in the electronic health record system. Amazing. Why did this not occur to me. https://t.co/yYNqZTySr1

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

In today’s materialistic world there is a risk of people becoming slaves to money, as though they were simply cogs in a huge money-making machine. This does nothing for human dignity, freedom, and genuine well-being. Wealth should serve humanity, and not the other way around.

@catrinrutland Congratulations Catrin! Thoroughly deserved :)

Any UK vet or VN who does dog consultations, please fill in this ~10 minute survey from @Bristol_Vets: https://t.co/bEOi4PI0P4
Please RT, thank you!

Sadly the use of #ShockCollars is still legal in #England. This CRUEL form of training causes suffering, and it's time that the UK Government followed #Wales and #Scotland to make them illegal. 10K signatures are needed, sign the petition- https://t.co/jUhqEGxHTN #BanShockCollars

Management is the practice of manipulating people for personal gain. Leadership is the responsibility of inspiring people for the good of the group.

[Sean Wensley @SeanWensley]

Superb day of unified activity by the UK Brachycephalic Working Group, highlighting why advertisers should stop using brachycephalic dogs to sell products. Widespread national coverage & welcome commitment from @AskHalifaxBank to change its policy https://t.co/4lzJcJXQ85
