#CovidEnquiry Recommendation on better data collection, sharing in advance, commissioning of research. Great not easy with GDPR, slow ethics approval, lack of surveillance funding. @BPSU led on CYP COVID monitoring now needs funds and support. 🙆

📢📢📢 TO ALL THE POLITICAL PARTIES... We need a serious conversation about environmental crime in Britain. Our country is being desecrated and hugely polluted. Tough action, NOT WORDS is required. On-the-spot fines should be increased from £1,000 to £10,000.

with @rarediseaseday tomorrow it's disappointing to see @BPSUtweet struggling. Just two studies running now. Common @RCPCHtweets members. If you don't use and support the system it will fail. The once jewel in the RCPCH crown needs reinforcement.

I travelled to Jaranwala (Pakistan) with @IslamicReliefUK & @AndyBowerman to provide aid & support to Christian communities who faced persecution. Standing up to hatred can be a lonely struggle. I wanted these communities to know that they are not alone & we are with them.

"There was not a single comment about the way he earned, earned money for that car. Dad killed people there. So it's fine by everyone that Daddy's a murderer now." A Russian woman is outraged that most of her fellow citizens consider it fine for their fathers to return from war with cars they earned by killing people. 📹: bigkross57/TikTok

Lough Neagh, Ireland's largest lake, has been turned into one big sewer of primarily agricultural (and some human) run-off. Something that already unites our island: treating the natural environment like, and with enormous quantities of literal, shite.
Lough Neagh blue green algae - it’s really bad throughout the Lough 😳

This Russian guy is brilliant. Listen to his speech! I am going to save this and use it to show it to more people! Retweet appreciated.
Dmitry Skurikhin, an entrepreneur from the Leningrad region, was sentenced to 1.5 years in prison for holding a poster "I'm sorry, Ukraine." The court found Skurikhin guilty of "discrediting the army." This is a part of the speech he gave in court. #Ukraine #RussiaIsATerroristState #RussianWarCrimes #RussiaUkraineWar #Russia #RussiaIsANaziState

Live in #WestMidlands & keen to see our community cleaned up from abuse of #NitrousOxide ? Then let’s put some pressure on @WMPolice to make some arrests of suppliers like ‘McNOS’ across WMids (real names were provided 2 cops last year-PL don’t name🙏)👇 change.org/p/enforce-psychoa…
