Remco Evenepoel. 👏👏👏 #ILombardia
Taking the role of patron of the peloton, spear-heading a 5-minutes rider protest, talking about the safety issues in the sport through the microphone.
Now it’s on the sport to take it seriously.

Nice to see that safety measures have been improved to prevent external vehicles from entering the convoy after Finlay Tarling’s death.
We got lucky he didn't have to go in the other direction.

On my @LBC show last night, NHS nurse Elliot with £100,000 in student debt - who says he’d have to be earning £80,000 a year just to keep pace with the interest he owes. He accrued extra interest during the pandemic because he took time out of studying to help with the Covid response.
And Kieran, a young solicitor who calculated that he’ll have to pay a total of £250,000 on a initial loan of less than £30,000 because the interest keeps going up and up. He pays back £3,500 a year, of which £3,200 is just interest. But his wealthier friends don’t pay a penny because their parents just paid their uni fees for them outright.
“Fair”, @RachelReevesMP? In what world?

UCI rules and regulations 2.2.010: ‘We cover your hotel and meals.’
Some European @UCI_cycling 2.2 races: ‘Cover your own, or don’t race. Your call.’ 😏

In een peloton dat meer naar cijfers kijkt dan naar de koers zelf, haalt Julien Vermote uit naar de datawaanzin in het wielrennen. De 36-jarige Belg, momenteel zonder ploeg, ziet hoe ploegen het gevoel verliezen - en renners daar mentaal aan kapotgaan👇

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep
Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications
This should also be banned
Influence being bought in Govt
Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

The UK Media is very interesting, Angela Rayner who tried to avoid tax was on the TV and in Media every day of the week.
But Reform UK's ex-Welsh Leader pleads guilty to Bribery Charges.
And we need to forget about it instantly.
Can't be having bad PR for Reform.

Before we jump on the 🚂🚂🚂 of the Norwegian Method, let’s get something clear: it’s not just about “the workouts or the coaches”
It’s the country.
It’s the education system.
It’s the culture.
It’s the investment in both summer & winter sports, decades ago.
Norway didn’t stumble onto magic intervals. They built an ecosystem; long-term commitment, collaboration over rivalry, science meeting practice; that allows talent to thrive.
And honestly, I’d love to see 1 country sweeping 3 podium spots.
Not because of medals, but because it would prove something bigger:
Long-term vision
Commitment to youth
Investment in education pays off

What utter dickheads we are…
Rayner fought for workers: sick pay, maternity rights, protection from unfair dismissal
Farage and his MPs voted it down
No sick pay from day one. No protections.
Rayner gets binned over £40k in stamp duty
Farage dodges £44k, shrugs & strolls on
Well done bellends, the ultra wealthy win again.

Pleased to have my first research project from my PhD accepted for publication

2 weeks of research = I definitively conclude
10 months of research = I sorta kinda suggest
