So Shingles Vaccine reduces the risk of dementia. Don’t expect the NHS to step in. #ardinglycourtsurgery @nhsenglandldn.bsky.social #brighton

Four things we will look back on in 10 years time and gasp:
1.How truely awful the NHS was.
2.The astonishing role of AI in all our lives and why so many people failed to harness the opportunity.
3.The lack of self reliant sustainable communities.
4.The damage caused by ineffective local government

Why are people buying US brands? We may not be able to boycott stores that stock such Brands.. just don’t by them. You will be surprised Branston baked beans are way nicer than Heinz. #buybritish #brighton #efftrump

@theweek.com FYI The Week has arrived on Monday in Brighton for the last 2 weeks. Used to arrive on Friday. Can you have a word?

Having a lot of fun not buying USA brands. No Heinz, no Hellmans, no Coke or Pepsi the list goes on. To be honest most of the brands are sh1t anyway.

So we are going send our young soldiers to Ukraine to keep Putin from fighting Trumpkin. Let's assume the NHS won't be there for them when they come home, the Police will be unaware of the mental health consequences. And what then. Thoughts?

Decline in Nursing degree applications corrolates with poor leadership and management of younger clinicians in the NHS. Expect this year's 11% reduction to be closer to 15% next year. @chriswardmp.bsky.social

@itvx.com goodness your app is a challenge to use. Please sort out the coverage of M6N.

Just asked @ocadogroup.bsky.social to let me know all the products they stock that include items from the USA so I don't have to buy them.

@healthwatchbh.bsky.social It's a real shame that you don't do more about the awfull secondary care in Brighton. The overspend by the University Hospital Trust will take £100m from Sussex care this year. What are you going to allow the NHS to cut. I suggest the Hospital CEO and CFO for start.

It's pretty clear that the UK is doing the right thing with its green agenda but in completely the wrong way. I think we may be in for a period of low or no growth until UK energy prices fall to below the EU average. Eg. no AI data centres at the current UK kW price. @chriswardmp.bsky.social

Used the Shift delivery box at the old HomeBase store today. Got my stuff but could have taken everyone else's. All the doors in my group of boxes flew open. What a sh1tee show this lot are. #poorcustomerservice #brighton

If communities in Brighton wish to change the way the Council provides services, they have to play their game. Provide evidence through their portals. It's dull hard work. Finally the complaints are more of a problem than the problem.
Don't be a “A complacent complainer collective.” #brighton

Evelyn Terrace bus stops closed again with no temporary stops. This after 12 weeks with stops closed. Seems cruel and unusual to do this to those that rely on buses for their mobility. #brighton #nocareforthecommunity

@harlequinsrugby.bsky.social good luck Joe Marler. Lang may your lum reek!

If you're thinking of shopping in Morrisons on St James Street #brighton dodge the addicts on the way in, don't trip over the sleeping drunk. Inside there's plenty of ultra processed food and 4 cubic metres of sweets in the entrance. But little fresh food, no fish and empty shelves everywhere.

Not sure if this is happening to anyone else, the NHS is using its email system to spam people. I'm getting recommendation for events I have no interest in. Classic NHS IT having no idea about GDPR.

@chriswardmp.bsky.social Chris we don't need assisted death. The NHS needs to be better at end of life care. Isn't it odd that all palliative care is provided by charities. The key is the word charity. I was present at the death of both my parents. The NHS was absent and I so happy about that.
