How could it possibly be in the public interest to know what was said when I met the boss of BP after they won a £1.5bn contract with my father in law's company just before I issued 100 new licences for oil and gas exploration?

It’s Rishi Sunak’s 1st birthday as PM. How does he choose to celebrate? By pushing ahead with Liz Truss’ plan to axe the cap on bankers’ bonuses. The cost of living and mortgages are at the front of people’s minds. Yet he thinks this is a priority? bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

Norway and Denmark didn't need freeports to create economies twice the size of Scotland's. We all know this is a scam but do @scottishlabour also support them? @RachelReevesMP

It seems that Michelle Mone is about to be rehabilitated and returned to the House of Lords. If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £223,000,000 she owes give this a RT. We won't forget.

Once again @Leactionjackson and chums asking the questions that a hegemony of misplaced ideological consequences might suppress. When questioning accepted knowledge is disallowed based on repercussions for asking, we’ve missed the point of academia.

@MarinaPurkiss Sadly, actual findings were the inverse of what was claimed. They were based on self-selection bias. They actively recruited people already likely to be Tories (in your contextual argument) @brianklaas explains this very well in his book and talks. Your point is valid kind I

I remember studying Zimbardo’s prison experiment… I couldn’t believe how seemingly normal people turned so cruel and so tyrannical, so quickly All because they were placed in positions of power …and yet, here we are. Except it’s not an experiment.

It’s newest director was a member of the Bullingdon Club… Another director is a Tory peer It pays Govt members to be hosts & presenters Tories are currently singing its praises at conference …& yet GB News is “anti-establishment” If you believe that, you’re past saving.

@RoryStewartUK your Grisham lecture. Answering the question about returning to political life. Insightful, honest, moving and profoundly Aristotelian. Your lecture was sublime. You sir are quite remarkable. As is @RestIsPolitics and your 📚.

@ComplexWales @HelenBevan All of this stuff is perpetual semantic-shuffling. A torture chamber where Simon Sinek videos are on repeat. Spill a can of alphabeti spaghetti and describe a model from that. Or chicken bones on the dirt. Dungeons and Dragons. Bert and Ernie.

@HelenBevan That's because cross functional groups are not Teams, they are another type of group. And they are larger than teams, not smaller and don't have a common purpose. The cross functionality requires people to accept working together to achieve many purposes (some even competing) 🤓

In principle, cross-functional teams are a good idea; they combine expertise & experience for shared purpose. Yet studies show they're dysfunctional 75% of the time. To make cross-functional teams work: 1) Keep them small 2) Maintain long-term relationships with functional teams 3) Strengthen people skills 4) Select people who think differently 5) Build a culture of autonomy, not hierarchy 6) Reinforce psychological safety and accountability: thehrdirector.com/features/emplo… Via @RogerFrancis1 Graphic: Avinash Gowda @ideaforge_tech

Applause for tackling the difficult challenges of critical enquiry versus populist ideology.

Hospital scandal EXPOSED as hundreds of Covid Nightingale beds sold for just £6 - Mirror Online … there has never been a more corrupt and incompetent government. When you think of the goodwill they had at the time of Covid. Exploited. Wasted. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/h…

People aren’t going hungry because we cannot feed the poor. People are going hungry because we cannot satisfy the rich.

The Women’s Health Plan in Scotland launched 2 years ago and we continue to make progress towards a Scotland where all women and girls enjoy the best possible health throughout their lives.

Please take two mins to watch this video from the TUC depicting how political decisions since 2010 have all but destroyed our once-great NHS, as waiting lists have soared from 4 to 7.5 million. It’s heartbreaking 😔

@IJNSJournal Apart from the grammatical error in the abstract, isn’t it odd that a hypothesis can be tested (or that readers are encouraged to infer such a thing) based on something as factually ludicrous as a ‘leadership style’?
