I have been blown away by the level of support for Pancreatic Cancer research! Tonight we will be lighting up our house purple in support of Pancreatic Cancer research (like this shot) and I’m also running 100kms - including another 10kms today. #PCUK

Tonight we think of all those lost to Pancreatic Cancer - Lightening it up purple. #Pancreaticcancer
@BBCNews you may want to fact check the story Johnson allies to be criticised over Partygate probe. Particularly “The cross-party committee has seven members, of which four are Tory MPs, two Labour and two from the Scottish National Party.”4+2+2> 7 bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-6…

Another small excess this week (3%) takes 2023 year-to-date mortality rates to the same level as in 2021. The pattern is very different though. 2021 had a severe peak followed by below average Spring mortality. 2023 had a smaller peak but followed by a consistent weekly excess.

My new article for the @LCP_Actuaries conference magazine discusses the legacy of the pandemic. @pearsonstuttard and I expect widening inequality and increased mortality directly from COVID and from delays in diagnosis and treatment of serious illnesses.

No one makes mathematics more engaging than @FryRsquared - going down very well at #lcpconf
Last week #JohnLewis (the shop, not the person!) forced me over to a new credit card as they stopped providing the previous one. First weekend using it and they have blocked my card …for no apparent reason. I guess that’s #progress 🤔
Two Questions for Sir Ranulph Fiennes: 1. What is the most important characteristic for a true leader? 2. Are you available for the job of Prime Minister? #askran
Fact checking at the #BBC isn’t what it used to be … but surely they can use the fingers on more than one hand to count …?
Very glad that LCP is able to support this campaign to ensure mothers receive state pension bbc.co.uk/news/business-6275… (It’s a shame that it has to be explained that LCP is not making money out of providing this support … but I guess that is the world we find ourselves in!)

Excited with how hot the de-risking market is right now. I have a number of transactions on the go, which will hopefully settle later in the year. For now, the LCP de-risking team are celebrating this deal (by getting some new pencils and pads of paper...) professionalpensions.com/new…

Given we now know who will be the next Prime Minister, the LibDems should court Rishi to be their next leader. Good for him, Great for the LibDems, and transformational for the UK. Obviously, it will never happen…! #PoliticsLive #LibDems #RishiSunak
Interested in your thoughts on this, @stevewebb1 as someone who knows both the #LibDems and the #ToryChaos
I’ve been a big fan of “Journey Planning” for DB pensions for a decade now. I’m delighted that our “Chart Your Own Course” report brings to life the framework we use at LCP to help our clients follow strong, successful strategic journey plans. Great stuff! indd.adobe.com/view/189505e8…
