@davidbainesmp.bsky.social Hi David,
Short notice but with the Assisted Dying bill coming up again tomorrow I just want to say I hope you still hold the same position with regards to the bill. As it progresses I find it is becoming more disturbing. I don’t think it offers safeguards and protection

In the CDC’s first public statement on the measles outbreak, it suggested vitamin A as a type of supportive care.

On Holocaust Day remembering the other groups persecuted including political prisoners, Johannes (b1896)was arrested for his political views, contracted TB and became a drug addict because of medical treatment not being available. A great uncle I never knew and only recently discovered his story.

Since the election 16,400 who have no right to be in the UK have been removed, including 2500 foreign criminals.
The government set a target to increase this number back to 2018 levels and have now smashed that number by restarting asylum processing, redeploying 1000 staff & using charter flights.

Though I studied Latin in my state grammar school many years ago, I'm much more concerned by the demise of modern languages at GCSE/A level in state schools. The Internet should have been a boom for accessing foreign language websites, but instead the UK has become even more of a monoglot nation.
