The government has published no evidence to suggest that cutting disability benefits will get people back to work. The evidence it has published found that these cuts would plunge hundreds of thousands of people into poverty. I’m joining @trusselluk.bsky.social in calling on the gov’t to rethink

We just published a new study on COVID-19 in Ontario, and it turns out, the way we measured cases may have been way off. Why? Because testing wasn’t equal across age and sex groups. That skews what we think we know. In epi-speak this is called “ascertainment bias”. Here's what we found:

Victorian diseases erysipelas and scabies return to the UK. Poverty, malnutrition, poor housing are the main causes. Govt response - benefit cuts for poor/disabled, two-child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut, freeze tax thresholds. NHS queues, can't see GPs. Must redistribute.

Lord Agnew calls accusations of VIP-Lane corruption 'bollocks'. Moments later, when asked why he referred a company with no experience delivering PPE to the VIP-Lane, he said he couldn't remember. That company delivered 182m unusable items of PPE to the NHS, costing £178m. 1/2
