Sessional plans made in advance of course, but in pushing ahead with two matches sitting at 12-4 side by side in the evening y’day, is the Crucible short changing the paying fans? #WorldSnookerChampionship

Similar picture in France 🇫🇷- looks like the peak has been reached. #flu
🪦 Près de 7% des décès étaient liés à la #grippe la semaine dernière, en légère baisse par rapport à la semaine d'avant mais toujours à un niveau record depuis au moins 5 ans*.

93% des décès liés à la grippe concernent des plus de 65 ans.

Vaccination programme in France extended until end of February.

As is the case in the UK, it feels like vaccinations - like them or not - come too late, when pathogens have already taken hold.

Women in UK are less safe as a result of Brexit.

Leaving EU was always predominantly a middle-aged white male thing.
Less safe, less prosperous, less free and less healthy. #BrexitShambles www.britishcouncil.org/voices-magaz...

Patient safety depends on teamwork.
Being technically superb isn’t enough, if the teamwork isn’t there then the patient isn’t safe.

“Problem has been, for far too long, that we’re not addressing mental health problems, not addressing drug problems, we’re not finding as many people jobs as we should be doing” - Lord Timpson

More job opportunities in state provided services may be a good investment?

“Fundamentally, viscerally, ideologically, he just doesn’t think the social consequences caused by his platforms are his problem”

One possible upside which @hugorifkind.bsky.social touches on is editorial standards… but perhaps, more widely, truth itself will be the valued winner in all of this.
