Today's cancer news no surprise: incidence of 11 / 12 obesity related cancers is increasing in adults aged <50. Obesity only is studied, but my patient's hunch is that diet/lifestyle/exercise combo is the problem, and the answer. thelancet.com/action/showPdf… Pancreatic Cancer UK

Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of the 22 most common cancers it has barely changed in 40 yrs 7 in 10 ppl diagnosed receive no treatment 2 in 10 get chemo only 1 in 10 get curative treatment retweet to raise awareness with healthcare staff/public #sethslegacy

HRH contemplating last minute move to sweep majestically across the #Brexit board, dissolve Parliament, revoke Article 50, and reclaim the Crown's political powers ... checkmate?

#RevokeArticle50Petition going along at a rate of ~20 signatures every second, according to my unofficial #Brexit stopwatch. Seems like a lot.

On March 1st, a white teenage girl was stabbed to death in London. In the days that followed, I lost count of the number of calls I had, asking for media interviews. On March 22nd, a black teenage boy was stabbed to death in London. And I haven’t had a single call from the press.

MPs can support as many #Brexit plans as they want tomorrow. In effect, "yes", "no" or "abstain" for each one. Looks like bad choice architecture. Two predictions: 1. MPs will game this system; 2. Nothing will get a majority. Could well be a wasted opportunity? #brexitvotes

When Chris Grayling works out how to game the system you know you're in trouble. #BrexitVotes

Brilliant #dataviz that says many MPs supported at least two of the Customs Union, Common Market 2.0 and Labour's deal. These are three versions of a soft #Brexit that aren't a million miles apart. Could these MPs work together now to consolidate into a single option? By Monday?

Thanks to the BHBIA Board, contributors, and fellow attendees on a really enjoyable conference this year #bhbia2019. Great standard of papers generally - with some standouts from @Kantar_Health and AstraZeneca / SKIM IMO

Another excellent #Nudgestock2019 enjoyed with colleagues who share a #behaviouralscience interest. More convinced than ever that this knowledge can improve how we do pharma #mrx and, more importantly, how we deliver healthcare.

This is worth being reminded of, amidst all the doom and gloom of the news just now: visualcapitalist.com/6-charts-show-… From Visual Capitalist

Perfect encapsulation of UK politics right now.

What the actual fuck? I laughed out loud when I saw this but I suppose it’s not funny really 😬

Crazy that a semi-final of a ICC Cricket World Cup can be decided without the two sides facing each other. ICC, would it have happened in the men's game? No winners here😰

Watching #leipzigtottenham this evening. Leipzig somehow reminding me of playing (and winning) at Sensible Soccer. Except without the trashed joysticks. Sorry Tottenham Hotspur fans.
