Remember the current NIH director going on about protecting researchers from government censorship? Today his people called the police in to forcibly remove my colleagues from their own society meeting for sharing an editorial published in their flagship journal that was critical of him. Gift link

Data from the Office of National Statistics shows Londoners are less likely to be violent crime victims (26.4 offences per 1,000 pop) than the rest of England & Wales (31.9 offences). Violent crime has fallen in every London borough in the past year.

I think they use it for CPR training now, so that's a positive at least?

‼️Food companies spending big (an extra £420m) ahead of new UK junk food ad rules… Coinciding with a bumper 12 months for sales of snack foods (an extra 45.4m packs of chocolate, cakes and crisps) It’s almost as if advertising is indeed very effective? 🤔 #stopmarketingtokids

Campaigners hoping to bring Charlton’s White Swan pub back to life are hosting a fundraising pub quiz later this month. The event will mark five years since the pub closed suddenly, just a few days before the Covid lockdown in March 2020.

I've written about what dying typically looks like - not as a 'pro' or 'anti' AD piece, but in the spirit of confronting a taboo. We've lost the easy familiarity with the patterns of dying that existed when death typically occurred in people’s own homes. Let's talk about it 🙏 @newstatesman.com
