"Today I opened my juice box all by myself. Bendy straw and everything. Perfect puncture, first try. People are saying nobody has ever done that before."

Question: When you talk about too many immigrants here, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You made us spend our youth, our wealth in this country and gave us a dream. You don't owe us anything. We have worked hard for it. How can you as a vice president stand there and say that we have too many of them now and we are going to take them out to people who are here rightfully so by paying the money that you guys asked us? You gave us the path and now how can you stop it and tell us we don't belong here anymore?

Incidentally, I wrote this in the BMJ about celebrity calls for PSA screening a while back. bmj.com/content/387/bmj.q260…. it won a prize from the @RoyalStatSoc last week.
This is how @gilescoren decides to respond to polite and evidence based challenge about him misleading men with inaccurate advice about PSA testing.

This doctor shared her payslip to show the stark reality NHS doctors face. Fully qualified. Working exhausting 48 hour weeks: nights, evenings, weekends. Regularly uprooted from family, friends and support networks. All to earn just Β£17.56 an hour. That’s 21% less in real terms than doctors earned in 2008, even though workloads and pressures have only increased. Doctors also now earn nearly Β£10,000 less than physician assistants; despite having more training, greater responsibility, and higher risk. Doctors are exhausted, demoralised, and leaving the NHS. They’ve had enough. They’re simply asking to move from Β£17.56/hr to Β£22.67/hr; and not even all at once @wesstreeting. To protect the NHS, we need to retain and value the doctors who work in it.

The same doctors that we applauded for during the pandemic? The same doctors working above their contracted hours to save lives? The same doctors being paid 20% less in real terms than they were in 2008? Stop demonising doctors and start fixing their pay.

It's easy to recommend exercise for better overall health but I had a truly remarkable day in clinic empowering patients with colon cancer to follow an evidence-based, post-op fitness program that offers a survival benefit on par with some chemo drugs Bodies in motion, indeed!

This is one of the most quietly devastating scenes I've ever seen the way Kerry Condon plays Siobhan's attitude shift when she realizes what Dominic is saying should've won her all the awards. The fact that Banshees went home with zero oscars is a crime
