Must-read whistleblower account on the indifference, lack of accountability, and rushed decision-making built in to our asylum system from the top-down. We know, and Home Office staff know, that this government is failing refugees. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Exactly. There is no legitimate basis to exclude Covishield and impose the additional burden of home quarantine on Indian students, given its the SAME vaccine as Vaxzevria. @adarpoonawalla @NISAU_UK please take this up.
How is Covishield still not recognised by the UK as an eligible vaccine under the UK overseas vaccination programme, despite being produced in partnership with a UK body? And being biochemically identical to Vaxzevria, which is recognised? @GOVUK @adarpoonawalla @NISAU_UK

Seems ridiculous that fully vaccinated passengers from India have to isolate for 10 days, while others with the SAME vaccine administered by the NHS in the UK can get out after taking a Day 2 pcr test--also an additional burden for fully-vaccinated students travelling to the UK

As I grow older I'm becoming more and more like the American empire. For example, I'll walk into a room and then think 'why did I come in here?'

For the last six years I’ve kept a spreadsheet listing every parking spot I’ve used at the local supermarket in a bid to park in them all. This week I completed my Magnum Opus! A thread.

“Isn’t it just *wonderful* to be back in the great London outdoors?” I scream over the thundering traffic noise as I pay 11 quid for some mushrooms on toast and listen to the table next door ponder a round of aperol spritz at 10:21am.
