This has been coming. #bbcpm bloomberg.com/graphics/2024-…
Labour has pledged to offer passengers “best-price ticket guarantees” (which means what?), automatic delay repay and digital season tickets (both of which are available already on most networks). None of this reduces delays and cancellations. #bbcpm
Good news - US economic growth has slowed sharply. Why good? Because that raises the likelihood of Fed cutting rates, something UK should have done by now. Fed taking action would finally push BoE to do so too. #wato
Labour’s nationalisation plans will make no difference to passenger services. As an example, LNER has moved between private and public a few times now - it operates exactly the same either way. #r4today
After all that happened during Covid, if police officers really think that WhatsApp is a safe, private space, they are at best, rather naive. #wato
Pretty rich of German PM to brag about them being the largest supporter of Ukraine defence outside of US. Germany finally met its NATO alliance commitment of 2% GDP on defence this year for the first time since early 1990s. #SelfInterest #wato
One third of physician time is spent doing paperwork Source: Dr Michelle Tempest presentation. Huge opportunity for tech and AI to give more time back to clinicians to spend on what they were trained for, as well as listening to patients. #patientexperience @DrMTempest
Not looking forward to my MRI scan today - as a researcher, I’m interested, but as a patient, I’m apprehensive.
Why does #r4today go on and on about Superdry? 🧐 It’s hardly a bellwether of British retail. It’s been in trouble for a decade and never really justified its hype. Next is far more significant - x8 the revenue, and number of employees.
Usual lazy #r4today reporting on saver interest rates. BoE base rate is 5.25%. I have savings in a bank getting exactly that rate. You just have to shop around and not leave money in the High Street banks. That’s good for consumers (and SMEs by the way, businesses matter too!)
Concerns about NEU and #antisemitism have been around for years schoolsweek.co.uk/why-is-the-neu… #r4today
Concerns about NEU and #antisemitism have been around for years schoolsweek.co.uk/why-is-the-neu… #r4today
Good to hear that @AngelaRayner is urging NEU to tackle this. #Antisemitism lbc.co.uk/news/british-j… #r4today
Good to hear on #farmingtoday the commitment to forestry growth in Scotland. But commercial forestry is largely about timber. We also need trees to shade rivers to protect wildlife. #r4today
Automotive represents over 6% of all EU employees. With the rise of Tesla and now China’s BYD, it’s hard to see any other EU response than tariffs. Protectionism is the usual response to being unable to compete .
Ben Dowell’s piece on Shardlake in the Times is insightful - including a discussion on authenticity, such as its thoughtful casting of disabled actor Arthur Hughes in the lead role. Imagination and artistic freedom has a place too though - it’s a fine and careful balance.
“Such a difficult chance for Alvarez” says Jenas. Give me strength. #MCICHE

@LongWordMonthly I didn't want to say too much but yes, it isn't the nicest experience. I had a panic attack the first time but now have a technique to deal with it. Being made to lie still isn't nice either. Glad you're OK today and least you'll be prepared if you have to have another one.
A particularly good @AndrewMarr9 show on @LBC today - well-chosen interviewees gave fresh perspectives rather than repeating clichés of recent days.
People who are claiming that being visibly Jewish at a pro Palestine protest is declaring “a side” are tacitly doing the dual loyalties trope. It is racist to assume someone’s stance on international geopolitics because of their religion or ethnicity.
So frustrating that internal data compliance is so different between two NHS hospitals, just thirty miles apart. This makes it so much harder to build aggregate data sets for research. #NHS
@LongWordMonthly It IS incredibly noisy, with all sorts of weird sounds, but they give you headphones so they block out most of it. The staff, I've found, have always been really helpful and kind. You'll be fine.
@LongWordMonthly Well, I've had a few. I have a form of claustrophobia (Cleithrophobia) and I've coped. The length of time you're in there varies: for a full spine or pelvis it's much longer than a foot, or knee. Keep your eyes closed, breathe deeply and it'll be over before you know it. No pain.

@struthTruth @MayorofLondon @BBCr4today If what you say about some team of "bodyguards provoking trouble" was true why didn't Plod say something about them or arrest them? Also, replace "Jewish" with "black" or "homosexual" in the police bigot's mouth and see how your scenarios play out in that context. #r4today
