Jeff Bridges pulled up to John Goodman’s Walk of Fame ceremony in the actual Dude sweater — Goodman’s reaction is pure joy. Cinema history hugging it out.

Private companies take control of state assets extract money for investors - there seems to be more job losses, poorer quality and dubious practices. I don't understand why governments allow these practices that clearly harm our country. We need policy to stop it. @Keir_Starmer

AI as a medical doctor, is this the future? It seems as though AI may replace many jobs, but its more likely to be a useful tool that can cut down on the amount of paperwork and help diagnose disease. At least for now! #AI #AIart #AIjob

I wonder what scientific secrets we will uncover. Looking forward to the results of my PhD students protein work. #protein #science #EVs #openuniversity #research #PhD #immunology

Great to meet Martin and Nigel @hopeagnstcancer at the medilink conference yesterday. Would be great to work together.

A bit of a no-brainer really. Private companies need to make money. Any public/private venture is at odds between profit and service. @UKLabour We need a well funded, properly functioning NHS, owned by the state.
Great to see so much support for outsourced workers in Colchester today! Outsourcing is inefficient and degrades workers terms and conditions, NHS is best! @UNISONEastern

Congratulations to all students today. Its easy to forget how stressful this time is, but as someone who has been through it, you'll be fine and don't let up. Even if you didn't achieve your dream results, everyone is rooting for you and you'll get there. #ALevel #GCSE

Underfunding the NHS is a complete false economy. Far from saving money, deciding to underinvest for over a decade actually makes running costs far more expensive. bbc.co.uk/news/health-689002…
