We can, and will do so much more if we're given the opportunity.
Amazing analysts working for the NHS need access and resources to be innovative and productive.
We need to stop talking and start doing...

‘We are already collecting massive, massive volumes of data just for them to be sitting there’
Pouria Hadjibagheri, who helped lead the UK’s Coronavirus dashboard, says part of the solution to NHS pressures could be using data more effectively

The United Kingdom has endlessly appeased the criminal regime in Iran. The Prime Minister speaks of protecting the innocent civilians of Iran but failed to act to help stop the regime’s massacre of 40,000 innocent Iranians in January.
Only an end to this regime - that brings terror to Britain’s own shores - will yield lasting peace and regional stability. Keir Starmer should follow in the footsteps of Churchill, not Chamberlain. He should support the Iranian people’s fight for liberty.
The Iranian people will remember who stood with them in their hour of need and who stood against them. There is still time for the Government to change course: prosecute the IRGC that slaughters innocents, expel the illegitimate regime's ambassador, and act to support the people of Iran.

The two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran today is welcomed by the UK and our allies.
The goal now must be a lasting end to the war.
Alongside our international partners, the UK will work to ensure a return to freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
ALT Joint statement from the leaders of France, Italy, Germany, Canada, Denmark, Netherlands, Spain, the European Commission, the European Council and Japan. We welcome the two-week ceasefire concluded between the United States and Iran today. We thank Pakistan and all partners involved for facilitating this important agreement. The goal must now be to negotiate a swift and lasting end to the war within the coming days. This can only be achieved through diplomatic means. We strongly encourage quick progress towards a substantive negotiated settlement. This will be crucial to protect the civilian population of Iran and ensure security in the region. It can avert a severe global energy crisis. We support these diplomatic efforts. To this end, we are in close contact with the United States and other partners. We call upon all sides to implement the ceasefire, including in Lebanon. Our Governments will contribute to ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

That was no civilian infrastructure.
US-Israeli strikes hit Tehran's Sharif University — known as Iran’s MIT & a hub of student protests against the Iranian regime.
Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime & only solidifies the regime's power.
Trump & Netanyahu have no plan, just more wanton destruction.

Sharif University of Technology is not just Iran’s top engineering school. It is a talent pipeline for missile, cyber, and dual-use military programs tied to the regime and IRGC. That is why the US government sanctioned it. sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.g… federalregister.gov/document…

Sharif University of Technology (founded as Arya Mehr University in 1966) is an icon of modernization and progress in Iran. Its alumni include the first woman to win the Field Medal in Mathematics, Maryam Mirzakhani. It has been a national symbol of achievement, gaining international recognition for the quality of its graduates, large number who have been admitted into the very best engineering programs in the West. The aim of this kind of wonton destruction could only be the nation of Iran itself.

If you have read Javad Zarif’s recent Foreign Affairs article, you may be interested in this leaked message, which he sent to an insider circle of Iranian analysts in the early days of the war, just a few days after it began.

Talk therapy is not going to fix the world's Iran problem.
The regime is brain-dead, and its agents are acting on muscle memory:
- Seeking de-escalation through escalation,
- and buying time through pointless diplomacy.

«ایالات متحده با تروریستها مذاکره نمیکند»
👆یک شعار کلیشهای که آنقدر تکرار شده که به یک واکنش شرطی تبدیل شده است،از تریبونهای ریاست جمهوری تا کف سنای آمریکا و فیلمنامههای هالیوود! اما ارزشش را دارد که بپرسیم آیا هنوز هم این اصل اعمال میشود یا نه.
شخصیت مرکزی که اکنون در ارتباط با یک توافق مذاکرهشده با ایران مورد بحث قرار گرفته، محمدباقر قالیباف است فرمانده سابق نیروی هوایی سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی که توسط آمریکا به عنوان تروریست designation و تحریم شده #IRGCTerrorist ، مردی که سه دهه در ماشین سرکوب و بدترین جنایات جمهوری اسلامی غوطهور بوده است. اگر قالیباف پشت میز مذاکره بنشیند، ایالات متحده دیگر در حال امتناع از مذاکره با تروریستها نیست! بلکه دارد آنها را مشروعیت میبخشد و به آن میگوید دیپلماسی!
این رویکرد به تهران سیگنال میدهد که سرپیچی پاداش دارد!
به دیگرانی که نظارهگرند، نشان میدهد که خطوط قرمز آمریکا قابل مذاکره است.
با مرگ آیتالله و لاریجانی، رژیم ایران حالا یک سیستم بیسر (بی مغز یا در حالت مرگ مغزی) است که با حافظه عضلانی بازماندگانش (ته مانده هایش) قالیباف، اژهای و احمد وحیدی ادامه مییابد.
در ژانویه ۲۰۲۶، این ماشین برای کشتار بیش از ۳۰ هزار ایرانی غیرمسلح در دو روز استفاده شد. اژهای به قضاتش دستور داد «قاطع و حداکثری» عمل کنند و «هیچ اغماضی» نداشته باشند.
حالا دقیقاً با همین معماران یک #IranMassacre در حال تعامل هستیم. نه با یک دولت، بلکه با طراحان یک قتلعام. هر کدام نقش مشخصی دارند. قالیباف، به عنوان اپراتور آن سیستم، از فرماندهی سپاه به ریاست مجلس رفته و شبکههایی ساخته که رژیم را سرپا نگه داشته.
قالیباف، اژهای و وحیدی راهحل نیستند. آنها خود مشکلاند.
هر چیزی کمتر از تغییر رژیم، نه یک دستاورد دیپلماتیک، بلکه تسلیم در برابر همان تروریسمی است که آمریکا دههها با آن جنگیده.

Iran regime is brain dead and acting on mussel memory.
With zero creative thinking, it has again resorted to Deescalation Through Escalation.
The solution? NOT talk therapy but Absolute annihilation or Total surrender, @Pouriaaa and I argue in @Newsweek.

You don't bomb a regime, absorb the cost, and then negotiate with what's left of it — that's not strategy, it's surrender with a press conference attached.

They never do... Though this time I guess they weren't quite available for an interview either.
The Economist is great. You just have to read their analyses, them you know what's true: the opposite.
Remember this nonsense? economist.com/leaders/2014/1…
Great analysis @TheEconomist - clearly you didn’t bother to ask Iran’s Air Force, Air Defense, Navy, Rocket Forces, Ministry of Intelligence, cadre of nuclear scientists, last three IRGC commanders or the Ayatollah how it’s going….
