Fantastic home-based health service in French village when grandson tore a finger needing 16 stitches. Dr prescribed antibiotic and ant-inflammatory plus dressings applied by nurse. No need for further clinic visit - local nurse visited at home every 2 days.

Emma Barnett is an infuriating interviewer. The BBC should urge Mishal Barnett to return. Sheβs so much better!

This one is for all of those who said there was no point in Labour trying to deepen EU ties with the red lines in place. Economically, there's a lot to gain from regulatory alignment.
Why? Because that gives companies the predictably to invest in the UK.

Whatever institutions you are part of, do suggest this diversifying to include BlueSky between Jan 3rd and Jan 20th.
It is a useful way to at least hedge against erratic platform performance doing further damage to reputation, user experience as was the case with Twitter/X in the UK in 2023-24

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth.
The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%.
Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Emma Barnett says her endometriosis leaves her wanting a holiday from herself #celebrity #shorts
Emma Barnett speaks for so many here: the holidays might be a break from work, but if you live with chronic pain or a lifelong condition, it canβt be a break from your own body. m.youtube.com/shorts/0-HdE...

Finland gave every homeless person a house and within 6 months 85% had a job and were financially independent.
Less crime, less hospital visits, less suffering and even including the cost of the house, LESS COST than the UK/USA method of abandoning them on the streets.

Iβve heard about 2 βreferral managementβ services in the past week that are clearly designed to keep patients away from waiting lists. Problem is, the experience of the patients Iβve heard from has been appalling. Reminder: It is possible to provide *person centred care and reduce waiting lists*
