Sir, I am a true labourer: I earn that I eat, get
that I wear, owe no man hate, envy no man’s
happiness, glad of other men’s good, content with my
harm, and the greatest of my pride is to see my ewes
graze and my lambs suck.
Merry Christmas to all my chums on Bluesky. If you can do one thing today make someone smile, and if you cant do that give them hug.

German media seems to be taking more seriously than ours the fact a leading light in the party UK press keeps saying will be next government took bribes from Russia to spout their lies. Maybe it’s because they put NEWS ahead of propaganda

🥬 Fermented foods do more than taste good

Live microbes and metabolites from fermented foods help support gut health, reduce inflammation, and even improve mood.

Your kimchi, miso, or kefir may be feeding more than your tastebuds.

Well done Bluesky! The age verification works a treat, I used the face estimation, it didn't tell me my estimated age which was maybe a blessing, naturally I think look I'm 21. Fingers crossed more sites used it, finally a step in the right direction and just hope it all makes a difference.

Strange to read Palantir argue that we should ignore its dangerous politics, and the implications for our privacy, and focus on its competence in a world in which, as @petergeoghegan.bsky.social has exposed, its product is also rubbish. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Palantir accuses UK doctors of choosing ‘ideology over patient interest’ in NHS data row
Tech firm’s chief, Louis Mosley, dismisses fears that contract ‘threatens to undermine public trust in NHS data systems’

What the fuck?

We can't allow the UK to follow the US, we are NOT the same.

Shout out to everyone in Kent,
Stop this!
Nigel Farage & Zia Yusuf are threatening Kent County Councillors with gross misconduct if they do not allow unelected, un-contracted software engineers, analysts and auditors to have access to Kent resident's data!??

A substantial segment of Reform voters won’t care but to the rest, wake up!

Who is going to do all of the work for these private companies bringing down NHS waiting lists? Staff who have been poached from the NHS of course. The private health sector in the UK trains almost no staff, takes on NHS work and does so to create a profit for shareholders. 🚨🚨🚨

IMPORTANT - We built EveryDoctor as a doctor-led organisation specifically so that we could avoid being accused of "ideology" when we hold politicians to account. We are doctors, and we base our fundamental aims in science and evidence.

We were deeply disappointed to see Labour announce yesterday..

I’m so fed up of politicians saying that people opposed to NHS privatisation are driven by ideology.

I’m a doctor by background and I’m driven by evidence. Just going to post something from the @everydoctor.org.uk account - please could you share when I post?
