Only had one taker for this so far. Please pass it on if you know any apprentices, grads or junior UCD bods who’d find it useful.

Register to vote! I didn’t spend months of my life building the world’s easiest and fastest voter registration system just so you slackers could fail to register!

So true and I have seen this close up and personal.

Islamophobia is rife. It is tolerated and even weaponised by some in senior positions.

I’m pleased Naz Shah MP 💙 is calling it out.

Feel so sorry for covid bereaved listening to this session because there’s no lesson to be learned from Johnson. He won’t reflect. He can’t suggest improvements to the system. He just has nothing to say, really, about the most dramatic event of his life

The new proposal would allow:
foreign investment bankers to bring their families

So fascinating that, at the meeting where Johnson agreed to lockdown, there was not one public health official, no one from the NHS, no Patrick Vallance or SoS, but Faculty and Babylon Health were in the room.

So, this is happening! #CampDigital ❤️
