Toddlers spending two hours on screens a day Two-year-olds in England watch television, videos or other digital content for an average of two hours each day, double the daily recommended screen time, new UCL-led research finds.

Right tilting, but it’s mostly well thought through points. Good to challenge the bias!

Or maybe you’re becoming more liberal 😊

Turnstile. Fontaines DC. Idles.

Lots happening if you look.

Chicane has claimed writing credits….

Your team is very well drilled. We had two big chances and didn’t take them. I think it’s a lot for us to come back!

I’m hoping you bring your horrible away form to match our horrendous home form!

You need to take a furniture making class.

And probably a few other classes.

Are you any good at making electronic devices?

Confusing things in Russia's 2025 budget law Russia's public budget statements insist they will hit their 2025 budget targets. Public data seem to suggest that they are about 4 trillion roubles off target.

I suspect the NHSE outputs in the acute sector can be largely explained by the behavioural changes due to the ERF mechanism. There has been a massive incentive this FY to buy your way out of your deficit

Both really well thought out pieces.

EHCPs have masked a lot of the discussion that is needed. I suspect one of the Unions would be needed to get this moving…

Didn’t have you down as a raver! But I suppose I should have noted your Scottish heritage!

It’s heavily frustrating to me that we can’t as a society seem to think two things at once. Lockdowns were an essential response to the pandemic AND highly damaging. The vaccine programme saved millions of lives AND caused damage to a group of people.

Surely just switch to posting old Jordan Peterson videos and/or inflammatory content and you’ll be winning. Resistance is futile etc.

Car free public spaces are one of the things that makes Verona such a beautiful city

X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m.

Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app?

If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Where’s the copy of Gazzetta Della Sport?

Is there really a problem with social care? Or do people just want a free lunch?

Who currently pays for social care? Who should pay?

And how to 'caps' and thresholds change this?

Ultimately, there's no such thing as free lunch.

Dorsoduro is nice around the square and not so tourist heavy

Is cancer diagnosis veering off course? | QualityWatch Data Story

Must read analysis from 2024 👇

Our #QualityWatch project with the Health Foundation found that younger people and people of minority ethnicities have more visits to a GP before a cancer diagnosis and targets for early diagnosis are being missed.

So today, Gazprom is heading for another devaluation, currently minus 1.5%. Expanding the current trend, in about 50 days a share in gazprom will hit the 10 rubles mark. That will hit pension funds, banks and the russian state as co-owner so hard, there will be no coming back from that.

Obviously favouring the peaceful commute these days.

Why Syria Matters to the Kremlin It is not just a military outpost. It is a cornerstone of Russia’s claim to great-power status.

Feels like a stretch today but hoping Brackley can be the FA Cup upset of the day!!

Stockport with some quality but a cold winter’s day can always cause some trouble.. ⚪️🔴

You won’t see a better quality debate in parliament than this. Assisted dying bringing out the intelligent, respectful side of politics that we could probably do with a lot more of.

Some great speeches from doctors in the debate today. Shows the value of proper professional representation in parliament. We could do with far more of it from working class professions as well.

A 32 Year Journey to the San Siro - markgordon.media Stadio Guiseppe Meazza is only a few hours on a flight from Scotland. My journey to San Siro really began thirty-two-and-a-half years earlier.

I’m heading back to San Siro on Saturday for Milan v Empoli. It’s a special ground for me and I wrote about my first visit there a few years back.🇮🇹⚽️
