Imagine if RCEM put as much effort in supporting 1000s of doctors who cannot get into Emergency Medicine training or pushing for those who are to have better training and pay. Yet further evidence of their push to replace doctors with ACPs. Pay ACPs more = less £ to employ EM Drs

Ohh dear

Experts now consider strength training the single most potent habit for aging gracefully and extending lifespan. Far from being just for athletes or bodybuilders, lifting weights—or any form of resistance exercise, including body-weight moves—has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for healthy aging. It does far more than add muscle: it fortifies bones, revs up metabolism, and sharply lowers the odds of diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions. As we get older, strength training switches on bone-forming cells, fights the natural loss of muscle mass known as sarcopenia, and keeps metabolism humming efficiently. For women, it’s especially valuable, helping offset the rapid bone-density decline triggered by menopause. The benefits extend well beyond the physical. Regular resistance work improves balance and coordination, dramatically cutting the risk of falls—the top cause of injury among older adults. It also protects the brain by enhancing insulin sensitivity, dialing down inflammation, and reducing dementia risk. The good news? You don’t need heavy barbells or punishing workouts. Even moderate, consistent strength training delivers profound gains in both quality of life and longevity. In the words of one leading researcher, “Building and maintaining muscle may be the single best investment you can make in your future health and independence.”

The BMA didn’t put our offer to their members and now we know why: they wouldn’t have backed their unnecessary and irresponsible strikes. They should give their members a say, call off these strikes and stop risking the NHS’s recovery. thetimes.com/article/c039c2b…

Another day, another hearing, another appeal but still the same old outcome; a loss for FSV Mainz 05. Regular defeats on the football pitch clearly aren’t enough for the board of the club so they keep coming back for more losses in the German courts ! I am grateful to the German courts for serving justice and seeing through the baseless and nonsensical claims of the club. Let me be clear, the statement from the serial losers FSV Mainz 05 following their latest defeat is as deluded as their entire dealings and proceedings against me. I have never had, nor will I ever have, any consensus with any person or organisation which seeks to silence those standing for justice and humanity. My values can never align with any organisation whose values and convictions are to blindly stand with those accused of flagrantly breaching International law and perpetrating genocide. No one is above the law. Let this latest victory send a loud and clear to message to the warmongers, their accomplices and the deluded board members of FSV Mainz 05; you cannot, and will not, silence the voices of the Palestinians and their advocates. Viva Palestina !!!

The ACPs are picking up locum shifts.

The BMA regard a 28.9% pay rise as ‘crumbs’. They do not acknowledge the sacrifices made by taxpayers - or my responsibility to other NHS staff paid far less than doctors. They are trying to hold the NHS and our country to ransom and we can’t give in to this behaviour.

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx. It was a little different last week.

"The BMA should call off these needless strikes, come back to the table, and give negotiations a chance." Watch Health and Social Care Secretary @WesStreeting's statement on BMA resident doctors announcing more strikes.

Reminds me of that Bayer Leverkusen title winning season. Logically it’s unsustainable and shows a team that’s vulnerable. There’ll be times they concede several last minute winners, it’s coming. Not the sign of a good team, but a lucky one.

This is the wrong decision. We will not tolerate antisemitism on our streets. The role of the police is to ensure all football fans can enjoy the game, without fear of violence or intimidation. bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
