Perhaps you should have a bit of a read around this subject.

Doctors, nurses, other healthcare professionals, firefighters, police, military, and many other public servants aren’t allowed to drink on the job - so why MPs?

The last few days have been surreally good. Gained an EM training number, skied Finlands biggest mountain, and saw the northern lights. All with a healthy dose of sauna. Best birthday ever?

Feeling a bit shell-shocked (in the best way!) Thrilled to see our magnetic resonance spectroscopy work on metabolic changes during delirium get a shoutout in @age-and-ageing.bsky.social Editor’s view today. This is early work, and requires confirmation, but may provide a therapeutic target.

I’ve found out the terrible news this evening that an incredibly kind man, and old boss of mine, has died. This is a huge loss to the London and wider U.K. climbing community. He will surely be sorely missed. Rest in peace Tom H.

Yes, I guess you’re right - religion is the same as other mechanisms of social control.

Christianity, like all religions, has been used as an argument for violence and social control for centuries.

Conversations around parental reluctance for vaccination can be really challenging. Often driven by unfamiliarity with the complications of infections which are routinely vaccinated against. It’s not just about presenting evidence, it’s about discussing openly discussing concerns and misinformation.

Someone has just sent me an incredible short literature review on research I’m currently writing up. Unfortunately they did it all via ChatGPT and entirely hallucinated most of the studies.

From ED point of view. Despite not undergoing 'surgical' procedures some of these patients had significant infections and requiring admission and surgical management so we should be mindful of this when reviewing these patients.

Hi, it’s ok, could be better. I am familiar but I am saying that something being against the law isn’t a barrier for this lot. Given how they have acted so far, I don’t think that’s particularly controversial stance?

Hi Stephen, I live in the UK so there is absolutely nothing I can do about it, apart from watch and cringe from a distance. From a quick glance at your timeline you appear to spend much more time dwelling on this subject than me - so perhaps you should take up your own advice..
