While losing the base that voted them in.

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep

Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications

This should also be banned

Influence being bought in Govt

Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

But first coffee ...

And the awful music to dance choices are kicking in from week 1. #scd #strictly

It's been fascinating to see how some acquaintances perceived him - denying any racism or hate while holding him up as a pro gun advocate Christian. Seeing only one side of the coin.

I miss my husky neighbours! Nothing like a husky siren at midnight 🤣🤣

Did you know? The co-discoverer of black holes was an Australian woman, – Louise Webster. Each week for 5 weeks I’m giving away a signed copy of my pbk A CRACK IN EVERYTHING to a randomly chosen UK person re-posting this (5 of 5) blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro... @headofzeus.bsky.social

September 1, 1939

I'm still curious where all the voices who loudly refused to vote for Kamala based on Gaza are right now as Trump is threatening mass killings.

Like he hasn't been nor remains a resident of Brussels yet has such a dislike for Europe?!

Where are all the voices that louldy refused to vote for Kamala over Gaza? It's gone oddly quiet.
