Quote from Bears excellent article. Because if your health system cannot survive five days of industrial action, that isn’t evidence that striking resident doctors are immoral villains out to destroy the NHS - it’s evidence that you’re running a health system with the resilience of wet tissue paper.
A winter flu surge.
A looming doctors’ strike.
A health system with no slack left.
This is neither bad luck nor a “perfect storm” - it’s exactly what will happen when resilience is treated as optional and difficult decisions are used to excuse incompetent ones.
A Saturday long read.

Saturday Long Read: The NHS is Collapsing and Labour is Running out of Excuses
A system shaved to the bone, a winter crisis already unfolding, and a government furious because the arithmetic no longer works.

Palantir is a big data-based surveillance firm that uses data to track everyone, everything, all the time - including in Gaza.
Your local NHS can reject Palantir's data platform locally.

No she didn't. NHS FIFE harassed her, not Upton.
This is almost defamatory, & they mentioned none of the dismissed parts or the implications for trans women in SS spaces. I complained to Ofcom.

This is a real disaster for those - pretty much the entirety of the British media - advancing a maximalist reading of the For (Some) Women Scotland decision.

My thread earlier focused on the discussion re. FWS - but I just want to draw this out really explicitly:
The press absolutely monstered Dr Beth Upton in the most appalling way – only for the Tribunal to find that Beth had done nothing wrong, but that Sandie Peggie had harassed her.

Also worth noting, the Tribunal found that Sandie Peggie had harassed Dr Beth Upton in a "hate incident".

Shameful. This money should be used for saving lives, not enriching pharma companies.

And that's basically how society still works. If someone says they're a woman or man, then most folk just accept that. What has been legitimised in the UK and USA in the last few years is people now feeling empowered to impose their view of who you are on you. 3/n

And the evidence just now that the WI is standing with the trans community is where, exactly? The only message to be drawn is one of betrayal. And btw I'm not trans.
"“My hope is that the message that the transgender community gets from this is not one of betrayal, but is one of our desire to continue to maintain those friendships and that support,...when that anger subsides the transgender community will know that we stand with them."
Nope, it's betrayal.
