Only four citations that don't exist?

They’re not even close to RFK Jr. territory yet.

Keep grinding, folks; you’ll get there eventually!

Nurses, doctors, care workers and ordinary citizens bore the consequences.

The least the country deserves is accountability.

If the allegations are accurate, then failing to act when lives depended on immediate decisions is not just morally reprehensible — it is exactly the kind of willful dereliction of duty this law was designed to address.

This isn’t simply “poor leadership”.
This is potentially Misconduct in Public Office — a criminal offence defined as wilful neglect of duty so serious it amounts to an abuse of the public’s trust.

During that same period, thousands were dying, frontline workers were begging for PPE, and the country was heading into the most catastrophic public health disaster in modern UK history.

Boris Johnson didn’t just make “mistakes”. According to documents now emerging, he took days off, walked his dog, rode a motorbike, and hosted social lunches as the NHS warned that Covid would overwhelm the system.

If ordinary NHS staff can be disciplined or struck off for negligence, why should a Prime Minister be above the law?

let me take a moment to summon up some enthusiasm for this barbarous and pointless event...

Surely this should be 8 *former* democrats voted with the republicans?

No, he is going to implement Shire law and require us all to go around bare foot after second breakfast while nominating four people to travel to Washington to destroy the dark lord.

"Ride of the Valkyries", because nothing says ‘constructive feedback’ like psychological warfare.”

Or

"Don’t Stop Believin’"... even if the reviewer clearly did.

Ah yes, nothing says “strong economic policy” & "building for the future through education" like shooting ourselves squarely in the a** to please a few right-wing zealots. I’m sure losing £4.4bn & countless skilled graduates will really make the UK more culturally cohesive. Brilliant stuff, truly.

One tablet of ferrous sulfate (200 mg) provides ~65 mg elemental iron; you’d need to eat ~500 g of lean beef or 30 cups of spinach daily to match that.

For moderate to severe iron deficiency anaemia, oral or IV supplementation is typically needed, as rebuilding haemoglobin and iron stores requires much larger amounts of elemental iron than diet can provide.
November 4, 2025 at 8:28 AM
For mild iron deficiency without anaemia, diet changes (e.g., red meat, fortified cereals, legumes, leafy greens, plus vitamin C to aid absorption) can often correct levels over time.
