I spent a year at Ofwat back in 2013 working on price controls I’m not remotely surprised it’s being abolished - what I saw astonished me 🧵 theguardian.com/business/2025/…

It takes 20 years for a London dr to earn more than a London PA 🤯 I asked O3-Pro to analyse cumulative earnings from the start of their courses onwards, accounting for the London weighting. Docs cumulatively out-earn PAs 21 yrs after starting med school, 6 yrs into consultancy

For the past year, I've been increasingly fascinated by a political mystery: how has antitrust enforcement become a global phenomenon after spending 40-years in a billionaire-induced coma? pluralistic.net/2025/06/28/mam… 1/

I’m a psychiatrist. In 2025, I’ve seen 12 people hospitalized after losing touch with reality because of AI. Online, I’m seeing the same pattern. Here’s what “AI psychosis” looks like, and why it’s spreading fast: 🧵

We were in court today after being charged for hanging this banner opposite Labour HQ. Pleaded not guilty. Trial in January ✊

This seems so incredibly dangerous, that not only could the "person" someone's reaching out for help to be an AI language model that gives useless advice and doesn't share the fact this person is at risk, but that it also seems to actively discourage talking to others about it

UK leads homelessness across OECD countries Outcome of real wage/benefit cuts, austerity, sale of council homes, emasculation of local councils, lack of affordable/social housing, corporate profiteering, no rent controls, appeasing corporations/rich. archive.ph/TV6JG

Here is an example of what is coming. The whole of Medicine, broken down into tasks and tiers. No need for knowledge. No need for expertise. Brought to you by HEE. Lets take a look at the new(ish) Framework for Asthma (May 2025).🧵 1/

Effective altruists be like: I see all the problems in the world, but imagine how much more suffering there will be when a trillion artificial intelligences war with a billion humans on our mars colonies. I'm therefore devoting all of my time and money to my new crypto AI comp...

Why is the GMC, a registered charity, holding £51.7m in reserves? What could they possibly even do with that money? Why are we paying £463 a year to the GMC for them to run such a huge surplus?

Reform is led by Londoners who haven’t had a lifetime of using railways in the North. So I suppose it’s no surprise that they think it’s fine for us to be stuck with a second-class railway while the south gets modern, high-speed lines.👇🏻 We have higher ambitions for the North.

Can we extend the idea of being a jobsworth to people like this - more than my jobs worth to ask to be paid enough so I can sleep 8 hours a night, yes sir, thank you sir.

Paid a visit to the London arms fair today... Found a component for cluster munitions, banned under international law, on full display. Confirmed by staff, and removed swiftly by event organisers. But what else remains? These vile weapons should never be peddled in the UK.

when I see a video like this, I think of one of Frantz Fanon's case studies. detailed in Wretched Of The Earth, he treated a French policeman and an Algerian freedom fighter that the policeman had tortured, and wrote what transpired when they encountered one another at the clinic

It's funny really how the Overton window has shifted to such an extent that a bunch of people roundly mocked by activists for doing somewhat tepid, ineffectual political stunts are now considered beyond the pale

The tragedy of it all is that we did it to ourselves, in response to Thatcher’s biggest lie: the UK relies on tax-payers’ money. Before that moment in 1983, Keynes was the accepted authority: If we can do it, we can afford it. The UK govt is not a household.

The economic duplicity of this so-called Labour govt is off the scale. Contrary to the propaganda peddled by the political class and corporate media, taxation does NOT pay for govt expenditure. Raising the basic rate of tax will not ease austerity, it will exacerbate it by

Hi louis appleby what's your response to the different in data presented here about the suicide of trans children? wearequeeraf.com/one-in-six-chi… your report showed ten times less. Were your criteria too strict?
