"We have an urgent, existential crisis in the medical workforce." David Oliver on why keeping the promise of 4500 additional specialty training places for the NHS is so crucial
David Oliver: We still lack clarity and urgency on the future of specialty training posts
When the BMA Resident Doctors Committee called off its last round of industrial action in England in June, it was partly because the government had promised to increase the number of specialty trainin...

Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.
The New Republic@newrepublic.com · yesterdayBanks permitted millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein—and former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had the story months ago. But the report would never air. trib.al/ZShZlIS
Is this more AI slop, or does the person producing this for BBC bitesize genuinely not know how to spell Magna Carta?
I'm just going to keep all my notes from now on. Let's see if Chat GPT can generate sixteen incoherently typed pages of bullet points and ??? and THEN SOMETHING HAPPENS.
Bad news for historians: dead people now off limits for criticism
Ben Goldacre@bengoldacre.bsky.social · 2d agoSad to see people posting on social media negatively about Rod Liddle, who died yesterday. If I have disagreed with you very strongly in life - and you die - I hope I'll be either silent, or kind.
A committed racist, he reached a senior level in his profession and then, protected by a culture which fails to appreciate the human impact of its work outside its own narrow social circle, spent twenty years seeing what he could get away with.
We are in the third drought in five years. We have the National Trust and NFU - those radical types - sounding the alarm on unprecedented temperatures. But so little from any single figure in politics talking about the climate crisis.
This is disgusting Abolish the Home Office
the3million@the3million.bsky.social · 3d agoMonique Hawkins, acting chief executive of the3million, said the impact of the Home Office’s retrospective review was devastating for many. "People applied to the EU settlement scheme in good faith...by building their lives in the UK and putting down roots." www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
This is very distressing

Monarchs all over the world have shown that the minimum amount of work required to keep a person busy is waving at people and asking them "What do you do?"
Rachel Klein@racheleklein.bsky.social · 4d agoALL I ask is that people who reject Universal Basic Income out of hand because “People need to work” interrogate WHY they believe this instead of assuming it as a starting point.
Hello I have made this due to a mutual having issues with some folks on here forgetting this fact and shouting at him for it. Feel free to use it as a handy PSA x
Spain clearly controls entry into the Schengen area from Africa. Almost everyone who entered Ceuta has returned. They would not have been eligible for regularisation anyway. Take your profound ignorance elsewhere.
Piñín♾️ ... que de Piñón "ye" sobrín@the-real-nacho.bsky.social · 4d agoSpain could control entry to the Schengen area from Africa but it doesn't. The ailing government in Madrid has just granted EU residency to 600,000+ undocumented migrants. This pull factor together with Spain's incompetent border control strategies have led to a very dangerous situation in #Ceuta.
Lockdown was shite, of course it was shite. What I remember was the right wing doing everything they could to delay it, which meant that when it happened it had to be much longer and harsher. Now a GOOD question is "why haven't we done anything about air quality in enclosed spaces?"
Great summary COVID downplayers did, sadly, win; Trump chose them to lead the federal health agencies (RFK Jr & his dude team: Drs Bhattacharya, Kulldorff, Makary, Oz, Prasad) They're STILL hurt that scientists rejected their pandemic ideas—men would rather destroy public health than go to therapy
Lupita Nihongo@otsumamiboy.blacksky.app · 4d agoWhat I hate about COVID downplayers is… you won okay. In the aftermath of humanity coming together to develop the most crucial vaccines of our lifetime & collectively sacrificing to save lives, we are now less safe, less vaccinated & less empathetic than ever. You won ok. Lay down your swords.

Yes lockdown was really tough for kids. Lots of those kids are teenagers now so maybe as a thank you our establishments could stop deliberately making even more things worse for them due to a weird systemic hatred of our own youth
The author of the paper quoted is an antivaxxer too incompetent for the MAHA set. This is the danger with doing your own research when you are not a subject expert. A Google search is not research.

The voice of some of the most stunning nature documentaries ever made is pessimistic about the future of wildlife on earth.
