Flu is seasonal, you might get it once a year if you're unlucky. #Covid is always there in the background & causes repeated waves. NYT is minimising with their "No worse than flu" framing. #Covid cardiovascular complications are causing huge additional pressure on healthcare, & ruining young lives.
So finally the media are breaking the story… New York Times are leading with.
Great message!
Pleased to find someone else who enjoyed the Parlamentarium as much as husband and I did.

Reminds me of my visit to the Parlamentarium in Brussels, where you can follow the (long) history of the European project from its beginnings. One of the best museums I've been to.

This charade needs to stop! These are not Govt. Officials or people upholding the law. They need to be removed immediately and answer for their infractions.
Good question to which I always thought the answer would be "Yes".

Good news!

Over £500 million from your SNP Government for Scotland’s GPs - the largest investment in core GP services ever.

This funding will recruit and retain more doctors, make it easier to get an appointment, and deliver digital prescriptions to save you time.

No one deserves to starve.

We have enough food to feed everyone, but we have a serious problem with wealth inequality.
