Delights and surprises at www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/see-and-do/v... yesterday @sciencemuseumldn.bsky.social, with an excellent volunteer-led tour telling stories of a rhino, midwifery, smallpox and much more. Beautiful exhibition that shows how and why science flourished, as the monarchy died.

This looks great. Be very interesting to see how it develops.
🚨 We've launched an exciting new project to track the government’s progress on Labour’s manifesto pledges.

Initially, it looks at 43 pledges but we’ll be adding more in the weeks ahead *and* updating it regularly.

🗣️This is just the start and we'd love to hear your feedback!

Good stuff. "Science is a lot more complicated and dynamic than we’re generally led to believe. Things change, views are updated and consensus opinion can get things wrong. But if someone is telling you something that most experts don’t seem to believe, be careful about taking their word for it."
