Great riposte from @thecoastguy to the mask dogma in the Sunday Times magazine today
What an incredibly powerful speech from @thecoastguy. If only I could put it so eloquently myself. This is 5 minutes worth watching 👇🏼

So is No 10 letting this run deliberately? Great diversion from the tracing shambles ahead of next week's schools reopening
Is it me or is political party polling over Cummings when 60,000 people are dead and more still dying everyday a bit (massively) missing the point? Why aren’t the banner newspaper headlines WHERE IS TEST, TRACE, ISOLATE?
Did you get similar texts from civic minded folk in 2003 when the govern you worked for invaded Iraq? Sure a lot of people felt like you did back then
Copy of DM I have sent to members of cabinet who follow me and unlike @dominicraab have not blocked. This is to @MattHancock but applies to them all. If they do nothing today they are finished. Worse this drags the country down so low it is horrific.

So there was no alternative solution for someone in a critical leadership team that wouldn't involve undermining the government and sticking two fingers up to the public? @ZacGoldsmith
The rage and fury over a father taking steps to (legally) protect his kid is something to behold.

I'll second that! @Scedacity
Highly recommend @Scedacity #rstats material! This was used in my masters and many PhD's have learned from it over the years (its good for learning to teach R as well!). Still got my original 'bible' 5 years on!

Yes please - v interested
Would you be interested in an online #QE_ReadingGroup focused on quantitative ecology? Reread a classic or dip into a new title? Retweet if your're interested. We're looking for book suggestions too! @BESMacroecol @BritishEcolSoc

New blog post about my recent experience during #PFTC5 @PFTCourses in Peru, the trip back to Europe & leaving the #quarantrait group that is currently still #StuckInPeru: biopraksis.w.uib.no/2020/03/… @VVandvik @bjenquist @SehoyaCotner
Waters Meet at confluence of the two Tynes - a great place for a sanity break and possible to get there and back in total isolation!

Passing this along to @ubcnews: a @UBC prof, MSc student, & 24 other international scientists are #stuckinPeru under quarantine & travel ban. Any interest in a multi-institutional press release on the situation? #PFTC5 #quarantrait @VVandvik @m_maciasfauria @SehoyaCotner
