1. I understand the anger, but these attacks on Government ministers will make getting voices heard far more difficult. We need to get people in the room that can explain a) the efficacy & safety, & scienceof PBs b) why the Cass review is flawed, not just the science, but …
You can ban all the gender affirming care in the world. You can tell every single child they are what they were born as. All you will do is turn trans children into dead trans children. History will not be kind to those with trans blood on their hands

The lack of effort Vladdy showed running out that ground ball was disgraceful Got v lucky but I would be tempted to bench him. Surely if ever he needed to show his fight and intent now is the time @AndrewStoeten @KeeganMatheson

Certainly confounders here, but interesting look at immediate vs deferred systemic therapy in pts with pleural mesothelioma @ClinicalLung. In this group, 58% of deferred pts eventually had systemic therapy. OS longer in deferred group (20.6m vs 11.5m). clinical-lung-cancer.com/art…

Thanks to Dr Heba Hassan, our SPR for showcasing our Kent strategy to use in house genomics to speed up TAT and select cases for more detailed multigene panels. Accept this might be contentious but this has definitely speed up access to targeted therapy for some. #BTOG24 @MTWnhs – at Belfast, Northern Ireland

New paper in Heart compares vaccinated to unvaccinated with respect to cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmia/cardiac arrest, myocarditis and clotting events including strokes, thrombosis deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and venous thromboembolism through 1, 2, 6, and 12 months in electronic medical record cohorts of 20 million from UK, Spain and Estonian. They adjust for measured cofounders using propensity scores weighting, adjust for unmeasured confounders using negative controls, and federated learning to combine data across countries. All events had significantly lower risk through 1m including myocarditis, and most through 12 months, providing strong evidence vaccination rollouts substantially reduced risk of cardiovascular events. heart.bmj.com/content/early/…

Multiple Tory MPs say Penny Mordaunt pulled tonight's amendment because govt did not have votes to support Israel 'humanitarian pause' motion. Rumour is that too many Tories had told Whips they were minded to back the Labour motion in favour of full fat ceasefire...

History lesson: Constance Wood was a towering figure of #radonc but sometimes forgotten today. She was first director of MRC Radiotherapy, & with physicist Louis Gray, the first to use clinical linac and cyclotron, at Hammersmith UK. She changed cancer tx forever. #WomenWhoCurie

This is a upsetting and enraging account of how the water industry has failed in our country. It is time for change
There has been much discussion about the likely failure of Thames Water in the last day or so. I’ve been looking at the accounts of England’s water companies for the last twenty years. My conclusion is that they are all environmentally insolvent. So, a thread…..
