NHS/health policy mainly.
Whenever anyone is using a telescope I can't help but say "use the open eye, Frank"
What's the most stupid movie reference you have to stop yourself saying regularly? Mine is not replying to "Can I be frank?" with "Okay, Frank. Can I be Bullwinkle".

And ten years after that, there are no humans left able to do the specialized stuff AI can't do, because the work they needed to do to gain the necessary foundational skills and experiences was done by AI....

Strange to think but last time Labour were in power, there wasn't really much social media, let alone the kind of agenda-bending 24/7 politicised SM we now have.

Seeing how the centre/left react online to a labour govt for the first time is proving quite depressing.

V good thread

Shout out to the staff in the NHS and DHSC affected by today's announcements about NHSE - please remember none of this is about you

One problem with SM is that it enables people to make an actual living by being professional 'opposers' of things. They will push their followers to wildly oppose mild issues as vehemently as v serious issues, and treat both with equally superficial standards of evidence. Awful for public discourse

I seem to have upset the Nigel Farage fan club - so let me be clear.

This man sows hate, lies and division.

He is a grifter and a conman.

He does not represent the vast majority of Britons.

Repost if you agree

P.s. multiculturalism is great.
