Terrific animation on shared decision making Patients Association Do with me, not to me; together.

It would cost £6bn/year for 10 yrs to bring housing standard up to decent level in UK. More than 50 places across England & Wales acting on #SDH in spite of central government inaction, with Scotland now working with @MarmotIHE. I am optimistic & hopeful Keir Stammer will act.

Ticketmaster: “buy from us, don’t buy from touts at inflated prices.” Also ticketmaster:

Politicians are lobbied by ticket companies, it's why you'll often see them at big gigs/sports events. The biggest "legal" seller of tickets was able to act as a tout today, with total immunity from the law. It's not free market capitalism, it's touting, protected.

Ticket companies know what they are doing. The "buzz" of getting into the buy phase after 4 hrs is the same dopamine hit gamblers experience. At that stage, £150 to £400 price rise no longer is a choice, it's an impulse buy. An unethical/should be illegal business practice.

Oasis have confirmed that they don't want fans to be ripped off by ticket touts, as they would prefer to do it themselves. #Ticketmaster #Oasis

Many different services and patients are involved throughout the week. Sessions will be recorded and available online.
