@johngreen I'm wearing a pair of my awesome socks to pick up my pass for the UN high level meeting on antimicrobial resistance. I'm hoping to speak on behalf of @resultsuk about the importance of accurate affordable diagnostics for TB in addressing AMR.

I’m not an uncritical supporter of SV - I would prefer to use the Alternative Vote (AV) for single post elections. But SV did change elections - it made people freer to cast an honest vote, for their first choice and then their choice of the top two…
Emma Best AM@EmmaBest22

I’m in favour of PR but not SV. London Mayor election proof of why. 2021: 105,285 first preferences votes rejected for voting for too many candidates or unmarked (114,201 total) 2024: 11,127 votes rejected total SV never changed an election but did exclude thousands of voices

This is a marked increase from my peer-reviewed academic research into the previous decade (2006-14), which showed that 1 in 9 peerages were going to party donors. Now it’s 1 in 4. The problem is getting worse, not better.
Robert Saunders@redhistorian

In the last decade, 1 in 4 peerages have gone to party donors. Those donors have given £58 million to political parties, of which £53.4 million went to the Conservatives Seats in Parliament are being given out as subscriber benefits for party fundraising tortoisemedia.com/2024/04/04/hou…

Very excited to be publishing this report. We have all seen the photo op moments where world leaders make commitments to tackle big issues. How do we ensure the pledges translate into action? This is what we think needs to happen in TB.

Despite severe disruption caused by the #COVID19 pandemic, more vaccines were administered by lower-income countries in 2021 than at any other time in history. The Vaccine Impact Conference, co-hosted by @gavi and @SpainMFA will celebrate this resilience: bit.ly/3V9W1SA
