Congratulations to Lidia Morawska, the Aussie scientist who alerted the world to the airborne nature of COVID-19. Winner of the Prime Minister’s Prize for Science. I’ve learnt so much from being a (very minor) part of Lidia’s team. Brilliant, incisive, generous.

This couldn’t have happened without all the insanely hard working people at LGBTI Legal Service - you won’t see them mentioned much, but they made the legal challenge that led to this decision possible. They are the most under-funded org I have ever seen (yes, worse than the arts). Support them.

@jreylee.bsky.social Look what just arrived!

The US is just the UK but behind by a few years. You too soon will have Democrat governors trying to welcome racist football hooligans itching to start a pogrom over the objections of the police.

Emily Oster has a hell of a lot to answer for.

Glasgow Gender Clinic now has a waiting time of 224 years. The average across the UK is now 25 years.

Lib Dem leader Davey: “The Government needs to block any future contracts with Tesla, and block Musk from being granted a license to supply energy to British homes

“Ministers should make clear that if you are egging on violence on the streets of the UK, you are not someone we can do business with.”

Maybe start by not approving more fossil fuel projects.
