As a native Lewesian who supports Palestine & the Greens, and has never spat 'London', I must call bollocks, @alexlarman.bsky.social "those who were born and bred in Lewes, who spit the word ‘London’... are not the ones going on anti-Israel marches or putting up Green placards"

Ten years ago I gave a vial of blood to the '100k Genomes Project' and very hesitantly ticked the "Yes, please inform me about any mutations that sentence me to a grim fate" (I paraphrase)... so it was a relief to learn, 10 years on, that my fate remains unknown

This drug for ppl like me losing our sight (retinitis pigmentosa) looks set to be approved in the US next year. Kinda exciting, but no idea whether it'll be approved or affordable here 🤷

Up at 6am. Arrived on time. At about 7.45 they unlocked the doors and let us in, dilated my eye, drew on my head, etc, then said, 'oh, by the way, the heat has overwhelmed the AC in the theatre'. 2hr wait, then: 'Engineer can't come till tomorrow. Everyone go home.' 😭 #brokenbritain

Can't help wondering how this broke down. Probably not a £10 BJ on a £599,990 Louis XV chair?
