Hello GMC please explain why you've agreed to regulate PAs when *not one* of the 30+ training courses has been accredited? How is this safe for us patients when there is no formal appraisal of course content, teaching & assessment methods used, exit exams & competencies?

BREAKING: In a shocking moment, Donald Trump just announced that he is going to adopt Project 2025’s policy to fire civil servants and hire political staff loyal only to Trump. Retweet to make sure all Americans are aware of Trump’s devious plans.

Kate Lamble What POSSIBLE sane reason can there be for this? #MoreOrLess is a terrific example of science and stats communication. Something much needed within Parliament. Perhaps your team could produce a training package for MPs And the Grenfell podcast essential listening for them too

This is riveting. Shocking but not really surprising. How unlikely is it really that the U.K. hasn’t been similarly targeted? ‘Among the types of influencers listed as possible collaborators are actors, politicians, media representatives, activists, and clergymen’

Given news from over the pond, this James O'Brien interview with Jessica Simor KC needs revisiting. Brexit IS an offensive on our democracy, freedoms and way of life. We need an urgent inquiry into why the Tories allowed Britain to be pawns in Russian game.

In 2019 Green💚🌻🍉Molly & I presented a report on social media disinformation at the House of Commons, with a panel including Carole Cadwalladr & Damian Collins (then chair of the DCMS Committee). It was clear to all of us that Putin's mafia state was interfering in UK democracy.
