I hope everyone under 30 will show their disgust at this blank refusal by both major parties to give our youth the joy of mobility in Europe. Craven surrender to a minority of ageing Europhobes.Sunak rejects offer of youth mobility scheme between EU and UK theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Do you think you understand the modern world? I didn’t until I read Oliver Franklin-Wallis’ “Wasteland” about the global rubbish trade. Horrifying and brilliant. Essential reading.
I am standing in an hour long post-Brexit queue at Barcelona airport. I once had the privilege of sitting at dinner next to the great negotiator Lord Frost. We did not discuss Brexit but I was interested to hear that he “had doubts” about climate change…..

Well, I am back in Kyiv and lectured 600+ very impressive medical students today. Kyiv is quiet at the moment but it’s a bit difficult at night not to listen out for air raid sirens and explosions as you try to get to sleep.

I finished John Vaillant’s Fire Weather last night and went to bed frightened, angry and depressed . I woke from an end of the world nightmare this morning. I think Mr Sunak should read the book, along with many other politicians.
Winter has started in Ukraine… They fight and suffer so we don’t have to… let’s never wane in our support and increase sanctions on those who make this happen !
So in Sunak's new Cabinet we have: - Environment Sec married to the exec of sewage-pumping water firm - Health Sec in charge of obesity married to CEO of major sugar firm - Foreign Sec tainted by Greensill lobbying scandal & isn't even an MP Sounds like "common sense" to me...

Truly terrible scenes from Gaza, but it’s strange to think that climate change will probably - I repeat probably - render all this area uninhabitable during the lives of my grandchildren.
The really good thing about flying Ryan Air from Stansted is that it really encourages me to reduce my carbon footprint.

One guy stole nuclear secrets, shared classified information with Russia in the Oval Office, said he believed Putin more than the U.S. intel community, led an insurrection & just invited Russia to attack NATO and the other one misstated the job title of Egypt's leader.

'Offensive levels of arrogance and ignorance.' @doctor_oxford reacts to Matt Hancock wanting to 'decide who died and lived' during Covid. Palliative care doctor Rachel Clarke tells @NickFerrariLBC that it's 'repulsive'.
@MattHancock @BorisJohnson @Peston 10/ We knew they were liars. They lied over & over. About PPE, about care homes, about shielding, about following the science. It was a disgusting, soul-destroying time. The absolute dregs of them were Johnson & Hancock. Thank God the country is better than those charlatans.
Hi Fraser. Quick reality fact check from someone who worked in those 'empty' hospitals. Of course those beds normally occupied by elective patients were empty. We threw everything at expanding ICU capacity, remember? For the tsunami of dying patients needing intensive care?
At the peak of Covid - 12 April 2020 - the NHS had *four times* more empty hospital beds than normal. One of the facts that the Covid inquiry does not seem very interested in... spectator.co.uk/article/boris-…
