Next Tuesday, I'm giving a talk at UCL about the downsides of mental health awareness in schools.

I'll be sharing the work I've been doing over the last two years, which explores the negative effects that universal mental health interventions can have in schools

It's 5 yrs today since lockdown started in England, but "We must never have lockdown again" is the wrong lesson.

Lockdowns are terrible but so are deadly pandemics.

Our choices 5 years ago were limited - we can & must do better in the future.

Do read my post.

'The question should be “lockdowns were terrible, so how can we prevent the spread of a new pandemic so we never need one again?”'

New from @chrischirp.bsky.social on the 5-year anniversary of the first Covid 'lockdown'.

"A drop-off in drinking is prompting fears among investors that alcohol is facing its own “tobacco moment”, as health authorities call for cigarette-style warning labels and moderation becomes mainstream."

I'm voting NO on the Republican shutdown bill.

NO on handing Donald Trump and Elon Musk a blank check to spend your taxpayer money however they want.

NO on cutting funding that helps families put food on the table and crack down on wealthy tax cheats.

We need to push back.
