Charge of the ventilators on ICU/HDU. Perhaps if Stevens had actually just understood the NHS and its existing workforce a little better, things might have been different.

Maybe the Council has to put a moratorium on new serviced apartments / short-term let blocks until the housing crisis is over. Edinburgh is short of sites for building homes. We need homes. edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinburgh…

1⃣ Where 20,000 cars once sped by daily, kids now play & neighbours gather. 🌊🌿 #SanFrancisco just pulled off one of the boldest urban transformations: turning part of the Great Highway into Sunset Dunes, a car-free coastal park. Here’s how—and why it’s still controversial. 🧵

The most disturbing thing about the winter fuel debacle is the chilling effect it'll have on any government which tries to think rationally about pensioner benefits and intergenerational fairness. We really are in the Nanny State now. Writing from me. open.substack.com/pub/goodalland…

The Alzheimer's Association Workgroup created a 2-dimensional "biological-clinical staging framework" in 2024. New #ADNI data showed it only explains progression in one-third of participants. The framework is divorced from reality. Can we move away from it? neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…
