New report by @ASOAntibiotics shows supermarkets are failing to comply with new laws making it *illegal* to prop up poor animal welfare with antibiotics. We need to change, for our own sakes and for the animals.

End the industrialised abuse of farmed animals and UK antibiotic use will be radically reduced.

Intensive factory farming puts animals under excessive stress, causes poor health, and leads to unacceptable farm antibiotic use. The latest @ASOAntibiotics report calls for urgent improvements to minimum UK animal husbandry standards 💊 saveourantibiotics.org/our-campaign/h…

Very high levels of fluoroquinolone-resistant Campylobacter found in broilers, despite large reductions in use. Disappointing @vmdgovuk won't ban fluoroquinolone use in poultry, as US did in 2005. We know this contributes to resistance in human Campylobacter infections.

UK farm antibiotic sales are down by 59% since 2014 which is contributing to some falls in resistance. This is welcome progress. Much greater reductions can still be achieved. Most use is still for group treatments, rather than targeted individual treatments.

It’s possible to totally condemn actions of Hamas, as I do, & still believe humanitarian emergency in Gaza is appalling. UK Govt must call on Israel to show restraint, lift blockade, allow aid to reach civilians & guarantee safe passage out for medical care #ceasefire #Palestine

@nationalrailenq can I travel to Wokingham from Honor Oak Park, via Norwood junction and East Croydon this morning? For some reason it says fares unavailable on National rail website - does this mean the trains aren’t running? Thanks!
English
@nationalrailenq Which route would you recommend to get to Wokingham from Honor Oak or Crofton Park?
English
@Kat_Button Hi Katherine, I'm struggling to generate that as a route. Do you mean to change at both Honor Oak Park and Norwood Junction, or to travel through?

@nationalrailenq It comes up on NR but says fares not available
