Good rec's in JAMA on how to communicate risk. I especially like the rec to communicate absolute, not relative, risk (since so much of the research is based on relative-risk statistics). jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

🚨 URGENT: PLEASE READ – DIGITAL ID & THE DIGITAL POUND 🚨 Everyone is talking about Digital ID — but please understand, that’s not the endgame. That’s the distraction. The bigger picture is the Bank of England’s digital pound. And we must read the small print. The Bank of

Of all the worthy policies Labour could be promoting, they choose this. Beyond tone deaf. Deeply unpopular among my constituents and with good reason. I will not be supporting this & will do all I can to ensure it does not become law.

Explain why this is mandatory and do you not think this should have debated in Parliament along with open public discussion? ......to simply announce this is to be introduced without any scrutiny or clear reasoning is yet another eg of out of touch/power drunk/inept politicians

Already the petition to stop digital ID has over a million signatures and is climbing fast, can I encourage everyone who thinks this policy represents an unnecessary increase in the surveillance state to sign it to permit a debate in the commons. 👇 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7301…

Digital ID cards link Starmer, McSweeney, Labour Together, + Tony Blair. The timing of Starmer’s announcement was no coincidence. Bastard Blair is back and he wants to make some very rich people even richer. I’ve been researching since Thursday, + I’ve got you their names…🧵

These authors claim that even nicotine-free e-cigarette use will *always* cause an addiction. Apparently because of the hand-to-mouth movement. I wonder if there's any concern of this happening with "non-addictive" very low nicotine cigarettes (VLNC)? sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

"The fact that a prominent doctor, head of policy at a major medical organisation, seems to be arguing that people should become even less informed ... seems quite perverse. A noble lie, after all, is still a lie." inews.co.uk/news/vapes-saf…

There are ~54.5-55 million adults in the UK. The signatories of this petition represent about 4.5-4.6% of the adult population or 1 in 22 and rising rapidly. There are many others who are desperately worried about digital ID but who say “petitions don’t work- they won’t listen”,

Do you honestly believe that your comments will hurt Farage? or cement up ur flagging support from Labour voters? On either count you are very badly misjudging the mood of folks outside of your 'bubble' Something positive to convince ur erstwhile supporters is more effective?

Oliver Varhelyi Is that what that ensemble of anti-nicotine lobbyists and pressure group activists told you? Have you thought of seeking info from other, less blatantly biased sources?

Oliver Varhelyi You can either carry on like this, or you can be serious about the health of the 90+ million EU citizens who smoke. Why not raise your game, stop protecting the cigarette trade, and help people switch from high-risk to low-risk nicotine use? Here's how: ethra.co/images/EU_Card…

There we go again, a tweet devoid of anything based on scientific knowledge. He just needs to convince the public that these things are true to justify his proposal. He needs the money. #NotAboutHealth

In a bizarre twist, the EU Commissioner for Climate Change has decided to chime in with his own hideously misinformed statement about reduced risk nicotine alternatives to deadly cigarettes. Why? I couldn't possibly comment. x.com/FarsalinosK/st…
