THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have discovered and isolated a broadly neutralizing plasma antibody, known as SC27, which has been shown to neutralize ALL known variants of SARS-CoV-2.

Let’s talk about that! 🧪🧵⬇️

It's a big deal that veteran journalist Mike Barnicle has now called out his media colleagues for failing to adequately cover Trump's visibly worsening mental state. It should spur a real discussion about how to do this, before it's too late. 1/

Finally: Top Journo Erupts at Media for Ignoring Trump’s Mental State
Mike Barnicle’s throwdown Wednesday should open the floodgates: Coverage of Donald Trump’s mental fitness for office is not just fair game. It’s necessary.

🔴 Ex Fujitsu UK director Simon Blagden gave £500k+ plus to Tories. He was appointed chair of a public agency on £80k PA

Then he was handed a public contract without an open tender

"Deeply problematic" says @endcorruptionuk.bsky.social

Revealed: Major Tory donor was handed public contract before general election
The public has a right to know how taxpayer money is spent. So why won’t the Crown Estate answer our questions about £15,000 contract awarded to a leading Tory donor without open tender?

"We could start by recognising that our attractiveness to migrants, especially to those who want to come here to work and study, is a huge comparative advantage, not a problem."
What would an "honest debate" about immigration actually look like?

"A system that works both for longstanding residents and new migrants, both as workers and people, is possible: let's debate that."

The big idea: why we’re getting the immigration debate all wrong
It’s not a problem that people want to come to the UK – it’s a major competitive advantage

So that's it then.

Redundancy

I have until mid-January to find another job.

If anyone knows about SQL jobs (developer, optimisation, design, all sorts, currently specialised on Snowflake but have plenty of experience in other fields), let me know.

Due to this, available now...

The tories had a budget of £110M for asylum/passports but went on to spend an average of £2.6B a year.

This has also contributed to the black hole in the finances!

The Home Office has repeatedly spent far more than budgeted for asylum, border, visa and passport operations in recent years.

🚨🚨This is just a really terrible decision, also for the simple fact that recent polls show youth mobility has broad public support among both left and right-wing voters. And Labour, get your act together, it is not free movement. 👇👇
Oh and, wouldn’t you know it, ruled out pretty much as soon as it’s suggested. Cos, of course, not admitting the epic Brexit failure is way more important than giving opportunities to our young people on their own continent.

Honestly… The endless and entrenched stupidity is just ruinous.
