“Communication problems are top of patients’ concerns” Communication: precisely why advocates are needed and precisely why patients are called patients. The key lies in freedom to communicate. Hospitals that prioritise open dialogue do best. Including whistleblowing? Especially.

I think this has probably shocked me more than anything else.
The Times ran multiple ads trashing Jason Arday. This one reached 195,746 people & ran until Aug 16 - today.
There’s a rearguard action to defend journalism. But this isn’t journalism. It’s monetised racebait.

Link is here. These are high-level insiders who understand the systems, how they work & why they've felt impelled to speak out. They say the government's responses about Palantir not owning the data is entirely beside the point.

For anyone who would like to hear Mark Carney’s outstanding Davos speech in full here it is. This is what true global leadership looks like.
Canada should be immensely proud today, because they are leading the fight back when others dare not.

WOW!!!
Never thought we would hear this level of honesty from a Western leader, and certainly not Canada, given the direction of Canada in the past 25 years. Canada's shift towards multialignment is quite clear - and this level of honesty from Carney on Western "fiction" about the old order will be warmly welcomed in much of the Global South:
"We knew that the story about the rules-based order was partially false... We knew that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused and the victim. This fiction was useful [because of the goods provided by American hegemony]... So we placed the sign in the window. We participated in the rituals. And we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality. This bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination."

Keir Starmer has signed a new trade deal with Donald Trump, on medicines.
British ministers claim it is "world-beating" and will help tens of thousands of NHS patients.
The reality is it will cost the NHS billions and lead to thousands of deaths.

Microsoft announced it is blocking Israel’s access to technology which allowed the mass surveillance of Palestinian civilians, following an investigation we wrote. The first time that a major US tech company sanctions the Israeli military for violating Palestinian rights >

Funny how racists wave the St George’s cross as an anti-immigration banner. St George himself? A Middle Eastern soldier, venerated in Ethiopia, Georgia, and Greece… Patron Saint of Palestine. You’re literally backing an immigrant. 🏴✈️

Four years ago, Mo’s life changed forever when an accident left him paralysed.
Now, he’s the first paralysed surgeon in England.
Watch how thanks to his own dedication, the adjustments made by his team and his hydraulic wheelchair, he’s back doing what he loves. 💙

The @Telegraph has revealed that there are now plans to hire physician associates from 15 other countries to work in the NHS, despite an ongoing UK legal challenge & national review into the role.
Instead of pausing, it’s full steam ahead. Is this safe?

Unfortunately yes - delays in pay restoration resulting in medical staff leaving, cuts to MH services for staff and patients alike, outsourcing various referral pathways resulting in ridiculous beaurocracy, employing cheaper alternatives to surgical trainees... I could go on

This is how the corporate machines are training their software… make it make sense? And shame on @routledgebooks for selling out its authors.
Class action inbound I hope.
Just found out that Taylor & Francis has sold access to all @routledgebooks data to Microsoft to train their AI. This includes my publications. I get no payment for using my research labour, never mind the bigger problems of this energy-intensive extractivism...
