Who won the seat in the undeclared one in the middle of Northern Ireland?

@IrvineWelsh Did you forget about Chris No-Boats Grayling?

Forget Gove, Sunak, Patel, Braverman, and yes even Cameron, Johnson and, yes, I’m going to say it, even Truss. Hunt must be in the running for the award of most inept and useless prick in the last 14 years of this non government

I have just finished another set of incredibly difficult weekend nights as the A&E consultant incharge. Some thoughts: The NHS no longer provides unscheduled care - we provide treatment. Care is with dignity - that's impossible for our patients in corridors. The model of acute care is not working or sustainable. We need a completely different approach - with long term investment in prevention and community care 111 need to change risk thresholds as far too many come to a&e when they don't need to. There needs to be alternative pathways to get care overnight for those who don't have accidents or emergencies. A&E shouldn't be anything and everything Staff are broke - supporting staff is just as vital as looking after patients This government have totally decimated our the NHS. They are the ones who should be apologising to our patients not our staff. Hundreds are dying each week because of lack of hospital capacity and corridor care in a&e, yet it's not on the news and no public uproar. As staff and patients we have accepted the unacceptable. Everyone needs to know the reality of what is happening - so that politicians offer a different solution and patients get the care they deserve. Sadly most of the public have no idea of what is genuinely going on. And finally, a post night fry up is the best antidote for the stresses of the weekend. Goodnight!

@BBCNews @anthony_reuben In your piece about National Insurance misinformation from Chancellor Jeremy Hunt, there is a statement about the Personal Tax Allowance in Scotland rising to £14,876. Perhaps you could verify it.

My point being that pedestrians at the top of the active travel hierarchy should not be further inconvenienced by shoehorning inadequate bicycle provision.

Really looking forward to the protected cycle lanes coming back to the #lanarkroad . Painted lines are not worth the paint and I think this photo, taken today shows what the bad old days were like. @CllrScottArthur @david_mccraw @SpokesLothian @SustransScot @blackfordsafer1

Eventual winner @mathieuvdpoel biding his time at the back of the breakaway group reeling in the race leader.

Absolutely brutal and thrilling race around Glasgow. Amazing effort from all the riders. @CyclingWorlds

A thread for the ultra-wealthy. If you are wealthy, you may think that if the U.K. switches from an NHS-model to a private model of healthcare it will either a) be better for you, or b) will not affect you. Here is why you are wrong… 🧵

Imagine if it could be this nice all the time. #GWR #Glasgow #Cycling #activetravel #spaceforkids

I have a fun presentation I do with students on thin DISH vs thick AS. AS often has ALL calcification, and DISH can look like marginal syndesmophytes. The lesson is, look elsewhere! SIJs, facets, etc. DISH rarely involves SIJs, and never fuses facets.
