Is there more to raspberry root rot than just P. rubi? We report our findings in the latest publication from my @CTP_FCR PhD. Thanks to my co-authors @nellic_, @fffatuk, @FusariumUK #GregDeakin and the growers & agronomists who helped in adding to our knowledge on the disease.

@NOWTV_It @AmazonUK In retaliation for advertising being added to the programmes I already pay a subscription for, I have decided to avoid all the products and services featured. A bit sad as the Waitrose Xmas dessert looks quite nice ... on your heads be it!

Suella Braverman tells me on @LBC that "if Keir Starmer were a bigger man" he'd use @Nigel_Farage to increase Britain's influence over Donald Trump. Says she thinks he'd make a good ambassador to the US.

Of the 10 states with abortion rights on the ballot, seven were passed. Three didn't pass: Florida, Nebraska and North Dakota. A clear majority supported abortion rights in Florida but it didn't clear the 60% threshold. This means the closest states where Floridian women can obtain an abortion are North Carolina and Virginia, hundreds of miles away. The state's six week abortion ban is transforming health care in the state with heartbreaking, perverse and tragic outcomes in every direction. Now, as we reported last Friday, the situation is likely to get worse still 👇

NEW: @TheNewsAgents special report: The Abortion Crisis in Florida. The story of how religious groups, with the connivance and support of the state, are lying to vulnerable women, promising to “reverse” abortions, and endangering lives. Listen now. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…

Updated NICE menopause guidelines published today. While it’s welcome to see HRT as the preferred treatment for the menopause, this is a disappointing update overall. The focus remains primarily on vasomotor symptoms – hot flushes and night sweats – which are, for many women, not the main symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. Most women experience brain symptoms – brain fog, low mood, anxiety, poor concentration, sleep disturbances, memory problems and fatigue – and these are things we know are unlikely to be alleviated in the long term by CBT, as suggested. The guidelines also do not differentiate between older, synthetic HRT and the natural (body identical) hormones now more commonly prescribed – while the word “risk” is mentioned three times as often than the word “benefit”, these newer forms offer more benefit than risks. The true risk comes in NOT taking HRT at all, with good quality evidence showing that low hormones during menopause increases the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, dementia, neurodegenerative diseases, clincial depression, autoimmune diseases and an earlier death. These diseases reduce in women taking hormones and life expectancy increases. Women deserve to be fully informed and involved at every step of their healthcare consultation to make an informed decision on the right treatment or combination of treatments for them. While we have seen a rise in recent years in access to evidence-based treatments like HRT, a postcode lottery still exists, particularly for those from lower socio-economic backgrounds. Too many women are still struggling to receive HRT, and these guidelines will be confusing for both healthcare professionals and women. Perimenopause and menopause is sorely under-researched and under-funded, and this must change. In the meantime, women deserve to have a choice, and those who want to take HRT should be able to have it prescribed. That HRT is now the frontline treatment is refreshing, but future documents and consultations must go further to ensure women get the treatment they deserve. nice.org.uk/guidance/ng23/…

@bmay I am torn between anger at the kind of woman that supports and amplifies the dangerous BS of this reprehensible fraction of a man for their own profit and visibility and pitty at the level of internalised mysoginy they must suffer from to be prepared to do it.

@TomTugendhat @PrivateEyeNews's Richard Brooks has uncovered many interesting facts around the financial deals for this development. May not be quite the shinning example you make it to be, at least for the public purse.

In light of this, my husband suggested I ask the important questions on here. He wants to know (because he one heard that 1 in thousand padron peppers is really spicy) has any one actually ever had a spicy padron pepper? He suspects it's a myth. theguardian.com/technology/art…
