There are a lot of people who get a very good service from the NHS, but they have no conception that there are others who don't.

I developed AF after decades of following NHS advice to ignore my symptoms and get more exercise. This is what happened after I was diagnosed:

Imagine being told that for years you may not have a single guaranteed day off. No protected time to see a doctor, exercise, meet family, go shopping or simply breathe. A care system that depends on people never getting a break isn’t a care system. It’s exploitation #unpaidcarers

@HCAHospitalsUK and @ISCAS_UK are equally as dreadful on the private side of healthcare. None of them are here to stand up for and protect a patients rights. It's all lip service. And as for the @MHRAgovuk, they are clearly not fit for purpose.

Of course. This is the basic problem with "segregated" cycle lanes. x.com/aphorism_monkey/status…

One of the most ableist things people do is assume every limitation is negotiable. When someone with a disability or chronic illness says they can’t do something, they’re not asking for permission. They’re informing you.

People don’t understand that global warming doesn’t mean “no cold weather ever.” It means a warming planet destabilizes weather patterns, causing more extreme weather. This has been explained for decades and people still don’t get it.

The NHS makes no provision for older disabled patients. If u don't drive it's a nightmare. A cab from my house to next town 20 miles away is £50! Though that was a while ago.

Eighty seven years old today. Not only a great driver and multiple World Champion but also a fearless pioneer of driver safety when the sport was needlessly killing three or four driver every year. Also a great shot !

Has anyone noticed an algorithm shift? I look at a post ONCE, & then the same post is served to me back-to-back 25x from different accounts. This is happening constantly now. And I see the same stolen viral posts copied word-for-word. Yet more broke behavior from this app.

Nobody ever got stabbed when I was a kid. I had a hunting knife when I was in the boy scouts. I wore it all the time. We all had knives in the scouts. Nobody ever thought of stabbing anyone. Of course we had the advantage of being civilised.

I began using the My Bike Traffic data field on 19 Feb this year, and since then I have been overtaken by 3885 vehicles. I have been close passed 25 times in that period, 20 were reported to OpSnap and 10 of those were actioned. Therefore 0.64% of overtakes were close passes.

People talk about the pain. People talk about the fatigue. Nobody talks about the boredom. The boredom of being stuck at home while everyone is out living their lives. The boredom of spending another weekend inside. The boredom of missing events you wanted to attend. The same four walls during flares when you’re bedbound. Eventually you realize you’re not bored because there’s nothing to do. You’re bored because there’s so much you can’t do.

Couple of panels arrived damanged, no big deal the supplier is sending replacements, but they won't take these damaged ones away, I don't know how to despose of them, the local recycling center won't take them and it's illegal to send them to landfill under WEEE laws, any ideas?

Misrepresenting a diagnosis to gain access to the patient's body for a surgery they did not consent to is an act of bad faith. It demonstrates that the surgeon knew the patient would refuse the actual procedure, so they engineered a deception to circumvent the patient's will.
