@NorwoodTrash @chris_hawkins You didn't let me approach him after a loud shout of "that's Stewart Lee!", so I can't confirm sadly

Our commentary written by @ClaireDurrant1 @TSpiresJones and I is now online! We discuss a new antibody against oligomeric tau, that showed efficacy in both cellular and mouse models, following intranasal delivery (in the mice not the cells lol).

A piece I wrote in 2012 offering a Manchester United perspective on the Hillsborough disaster on this day in 1989. It was published in the @FCUnitedMcr match day programme to show solidarity with those campaigning for justice ✊ #jft97 nowtmuchtosay.wordpress.com/2012/09/26/fin…

@Keir_Starmer And you are too weak to call for a ceasefire to stop an extremist regime killing thousands of civilians
English
Rishi Sunak is too weak to take on the extremists in his party and too weak to deliver the change Britain needs.
My changed Labour Party is ready to deliver for the British people.

Really pleased to have passed my viva and couldn't have done it without the great support of my supervisors, especially @katielunnon. The rest of the @Dementia_Omics lab got me here too. An amazing bunch of people

@OwenJones84 I've lived in the Arab world for 13 years. If I live here another 5 years I still won't be an Arab.
I will always be British.
English
I’ve lived in London for 18 years, and nearly my entire adult life?
The disturbing implication here is that, for example, nobody would be British unless they were born in Britain

@GregWheildon Congrats!!! Enjoy the extra sleep and good luck with the viva preparation 😇💪

My thesis is done. And I don't have to set an alarm tomorrow 💃

"Hostile" is an inappropriate way to describe domestic & sexual abuse charities in stakeholder mapping, but especially in this case.
We have worked on our football campaign for over 10 years, & work with both clubs & orgs, on an issue that is prevalent throughout our society.

NEW @TheAthleticFC 🚨Manchester United’s plan to bring back Mason Greenwood included listing football pundits, politicians & journalists and categorising if they would be hostile or supportive. Domestic violence charities were assumed “hostile” theathletic.com/4786779/2023/0…

Tonight’s match was dedicated to @alzheimerssoc, raising vital funds to those devastated by dementia.
