Drawing: Possible causes of your problems. I've been appalled at the scenes we've witnessed over the last few days. It's utterly unacceptable that people should have to live in fear because of the colour of their skin.

To use it against backbenchers, especially over a single vote on an amendment is pretty draconian behaviour. Conventionally, backbenchers are seen as having more freedom & act as the conscience of the party, precisely because they can vote against the leadership. (7/9)

Picture from yesterday at #BSR24 - our fabulous Western Isles nurse Alison MacIver presenting her research poster on social engagement in people with rheumatic and musculoskeletal disease
ALT Woman with brown hair standing to the right of a screen showing a slide that says "measuring social engagement in rheumatic and musculoskeletal disease"
Fabulous talk from @KlaireConnor this morning to kick off second day of #BSR24 - we are so grateful for her input with our under 25s in the adult service
ALT Slide says "young people: what do they want" and then "included, listened to, educated, a future, to be seen as their own person"
.@USC this is an appalling decision - Asna Tabassum sounds like the most inspiring and talented student, she is valedictorian, she is a biomedical engineer and sounds like EXACTLY who we need to be listening to and learning from just now
Sad decision from @USC
A Muslim woman who minored in resistance to genocide is the USC Class of 2024 valedictorian — and USC is BANNING her from speaking at Commencement.😐

Of all the ways to reduce meat in our diets, I rarely hear anyone mentioning using less meat in meat-based dishes
Yet I think many people would prefer a pie, curry or whatever that's 30% meat and the rest veg & potato, rather than 100% meat
