🚨The Government has quietly and suddenly closed the Afghan resettlement scheme, buried in an 138 page document. This scheme - though not without limitations - was a vital lifeline for thousands of Afghans, including women targeted by the Taliban. 1/🧵 www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Astonishing evidence at the Covid Inquiry. The Government repeatedly ignored offers from the Crick Institute to provide mass testing on a national scale. Instead, the Government paid Deloitte consultants to project manage, not yet established, privately run labs. 1/2

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge. As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do. They can't keep spewing carbon. They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying. They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

So, let me get that straight, we academics often pay to publish our own work, pay to read it, just to make some shareholders of scientific publishers rich, and now our publications are used for free to enrich shareholders of AI firms ...🤬
