Balstrode in #PeterGrimes by #BenjaminBritten is a fair-minded, if imperfect person. I like to hope that's me too. If you haven't seen the opera, please do. Grimes is an ambitious fisherman driven to madness and suicide by a baying mob who are incited by malicious gossip.

@haaretzcom Why? It's true

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. Secretary of Defense Hegseth: “Never in history has a country been defeated as Iran has… we wiped it off the face of the earth.” And we’re just supposed to… accept that? The internet is the greatest invention ever created. Because without it, history like this gets rewritten in real time.

@jorge_jagaj1962 @Politicsworld Are you an expert in cigarette burns?

@Politicsworld Those aren't cigarette burns and the story seems to be a bit different.

Israel abducted a baby, tortured him and interrogated his father at a checkpoint in Gaza. Israeli soldiers tortured the child in front of his father, they burned the baby with cigarettes on his leg, pricked and inserted metal nails into his leg. 💔

@UKUN_NewYork @UKinJerusalem Bloody well do something then. Expel the vile ambassador Hotovely for starters. Disband MP Friends of Israel groups. Stop trade. Sanctions.

We strongly condemn settler violence and terror, including numerous attacks on West Bank villages over the weekend. The Israeli government must take concrete steps to prevent such actions. Its decision to expand control over the West Bank must be reversed.

@LawrenceTJ13 @DrNeilStone I know of course. But you were being .....

@Balstrode1 @DrNeilStone

When you are so far down the anti vaccine conspiracy theory rabbit hole that you don't even believe in a meningitis outbreak Meningitis is one of the worst infections out there. You should fear and respect it. I'm an Infectious Diseases doctor. I do.

@LawrenceTJ13 @DrNeilStone Like talking and coughing?

@Balstrode1 @DrNeilStone Apparently the Kent out break could be easily irradicated if the students abstained for several weeks from mixing body fluids

@PS54621 @DrNeilStone What you have written makes no sense

@Balstrode1 @DrNeilStone As soon as a small outbreak which has hopefully been contained but guys like this shouting for nationwide boosters vaccines. After all the issues with the Covid shot.

@HonestJ59786434 @DrNeilStone Evidence please?

@DrNeilStone The 3 people it affected which was caused by the side effect of the COVID vax. Ok mate.

@PS54621 @DrNeilStone Why?

@DrNeilStone People won't be taking any vaccines for the rest of their lives now.

@LawrenceTJ13 @DrNeilStone The vaccine prevents tragedies this, as well as deaths. In the early 80s when I did my paediatrics, admissions with bacterial meningitis were commonplace

@DrNeilStone Two people have died so far this year, previous years like 2015 saw 60 deaths. In addition the fatalities were bacterial not viral, so why would they need a vaccine.And again its not a traditional vaccine being given, its another Frankenstein cocktail of protein and DNA triggers

@a_bodhisattvas @DrNeilStone "...viruses that don't exist" Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks!

@DrNeilStone Meningitis is the name of inflammation of the meninges. It is caused by many things. None are viruses that don't exist. Bacteria show up after the inflammation and alteration in pH, etc... have already happened. Bacteria just want to biofilm and chill...and eat dead tissues.

@JamieAA_Again @thecoastguy Look at the last sentence: "the majority of the colonising meningococci were non-typable" Not all snakes are poisonous Not all meningococci cause disease

@thecoastguy Correct. What they aren't so forthcoming with is the fact that this Bacteria is found in half of healthy young adults.

And bollocks to the meningitis nonsense as well.

@Christiiiiiinax #Trump is simply a vile man

This is simply a vile thing to say.

If #Trump can't be removed soon, #Ukraine, then Poland and the Baltic States etc are doomed

@abulrub1 @masuzafi Or snorts of coke more like. He always looks and talks like he's high

@masuzafi How many bottles he has to drink to deal with such question? The Israelis will make sure America is drowned ... and he will call that a victory!

"How Did You Not Plan For This?"

@Daractenus @campbellclaret I am proud of our PM. He may seem a bit bloodless but I was tired of the circus & he has some very handy personality traits for this moment. Plus despite some cock-ups this government is quietly working to rebuild the country & leave it in a better place than they found it.

@Frank9478968518 @DrSteveTaylor The mortuary?

@DrSteveTaylor Is there any suggestion as to what I am supposed to divert and to where?

Government sets target for one in four GP referrals to be ‘diverted’ by 2027  The hospitals are making such a bad job of reducing the waiting lists so Dear GPs kindly sort it out for us! There is one GP for every 5.3 hospital Doctors Do the maths🤷🏻‍♂️ pulsetoday.co.uk/news/2026-27-g…

@CowboyRedBeard @PolitlcsUK What are you implying? Not just vile, but stupid

@PolitlcsUK I wonder why this disease which was all but eradicated in the UK has suddenly began making a comeback back. In other news immigration is still at a historic high.

🚨 BREAKING: The meningitis outbreak has been declared a "national incident" with the first case now reported in London

This sums it up
