@colinsalmon24 Wasn't the Chapel street venue one of those pubs that underwent a club-style transformation as the night progressed?? Fuzzy memory...was a while back!

I remember going to those blues parties myself back in the day. Dallow road, Beech Hill, Chapel Street. Luton was always a town of lovers. “step right up, hurry hurry, before the show begins, my friends.”

Last night finale managed to catch up with Sunday’s episode of Small Axe. This was part of my parent’s history which I am proud to be a WindRush Baby. Remember everyone of them Lovers Rock tunes growing up in a traditional Jamaican 🇯🇲 household. Loved the dub plates 😊. Tunes!

I will ensure full #genderequality in my College of Commissioners. If Member States do not propose enough female Commissioners, I will not hesitate to ask for new names.

@DJohnsonMSP Yes just stick to the data. Cochrane reviews are indeed helpful for gaining oversight.

On the last point: here is the latest study on the efficacy and safety of medication that captures data on around 35,000 individuals.

I find this article disturbing.
1) Education policy must be based on science.
2) We must record data for ADHD alongside ASD.
3) We must tackle the stigma of diagnosis and prescribing for ADHD.
