@rose_rose1909 @2BJDJ @MarkMcAulay10 I thought these are band in the UK. Exemptions have been made for sugar beets but not 25 and 26. So surely 🙏 this picture is not for the UK

@2BJDJ @MarkMcAulay10 Good god, are they complete idiots. We’ve had terrible colony losses in the UK this year. As a beekeeper I am outraged by this!!

Very Important Message!! Do NOT, and I repeat do not buy plants treated with Neonicotinoids. Bees take the pollen back to the hive and feed it to the brood. This is a number one cause of the colony collapse. It's important to NOT buy these plants! Make sure to share this post!

@YannickBuccella Admitted after a blood test. I had no white cells and a platelet count of 7! My reds cells were down at 85. I was told without an immediate blood transfusion I would be unlikely to survive 48hrs. Diagnosed AML. So yes, it definitely can be an emergency

Sorry, but no. There are countless situations where an instant intervention with a newly diagnosed cancer disease is acutely life saving: - brain mets/tumor obstructing the flow of cerebral fluid - aggressive lymphomas very close/adjacent to big blood vessels, the trachea or other organs - bone mets invading the spinal cord - colon cancer obstructing the intestines - lung cancer obstructing the big airways and/or trachea - new cancer of any type interfering with your blood salt metabolism like very low sodium or very high calcium And there are many, many more, which require immediate surgery, radiation or drug treatment in order to save the patient‘s life immediately. You cannot send those patients home and say: you got cancer, but come back next Tuesday.

@JaMedFamLab Never met someone with leukaemia! Admission for bloods needed immediately for survival.

El cáncer no es una urgencia, aunque sea algo grave. No se puede diagnosticar en urgencias. Urgencia es aquello que amenaza la vida antes de 24 horas. Emergencia, antes de 2 horas. Todo lo demás tiene que ir por la vía convencional.

@LolaOllhey @inezalbright2 Yip but can be done. Still a big loss of childhood that could never be regained

@jac_mac91 @inezalbright2 Anecdotal and rare. Good for them.

She's 12 and he is 13. This is sad AF.

@Slim_Picking5 @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone Try using Google begore contradicting others Source: NHS inform share.google/fcAFSTRBMa2Mwo… Ps high tax payer household ( even higher than england) but get more back for the extra

@jac_mac91 @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone No it's not there's a prescription charge. Can tell you ain't got a job 😅

All these things are free the UK

@LizGunnNZ Scientist- the stats need to be age adjusted to give any meaningful data set. I will look into this, but as it has a very high elderly population, I expect any data set will normalise out.

The most vaccinated place in the world is in Ireland. It's a place called Waterford. They had the highest vaccination rate in the world. Then they suffered the highest Covid rate in Ireland. And then they had the highest excess deaths. The local health authority got an award from the World Health Organisation for the way they handled the pandemic. They had the highest death rate, having had the highest vaccination rate. 85% excess deaths at one stage they were on. – Andrew Bridgen @ABridgen

@EssexPR I'm not sure kicking someone in the head who you suspect my have a detonator is really a good idea ( even ignoring any morality question). Surely tazering again ( repeatedly if required) in this situation would be much safer

I’ve just spoken to an ex counter terrorism officer, kicks were more than justified… he had a lethal weapon and could have had a detonator. Only complete morons are arguing the opposite. These people are probably Green or Labour voters.

@Nickisbackbaby Isolation and masks!

Do you remember during the pandemic when the flu completely disappeared. Then when the final strands of covid died off the flu made a comeback? How do medical experts explain this?

@robshrl @Mrs_mangel1 @Artemisfornow @Chinn888 You realise it is not an out of work benifit. Some of us are in high tax households it's only our legs that don't work!

@Mrs_mangel1 @Artemisfornow @Chinn888 No, to expose benefit cheats from milking the system that hard working people contribute to through tax.

Why is a brand new showroom £60,000 Ford Capri available on the taxpayer funded motability scheme? Taking the piss out of hard working taxpayers looks like this 🤡

@JohnDav08799777 @Artemisfornow Well you could either get me in or my wheelchair lol. What about my kids. Do I just leave them behind.

@Artemisfornow These were fine in the 60’s why not now?

@TimboJ @Artemisfornow Or get our wheelchairs in. We still have families to fit in too. A lot of us still work and pay taxes too even if our legs don't work. Anyone can be 1 day away from becoming disabled, either from an accident or from illness. In my case transverse myelitus paralysed me overnight.

@Artemisfornow Firstly, it will have a hell of an upfront, unrefundable deposit. Secondly, the money for this has already been allocated to the disabled person. What they choose to spend it on is up to them. Many need bigger cars because they can't bend to fit in small cars.

@theukismyhome @Artemisfornow Driving my wheelchair into that would make for interesting viewing

@Artemisfornow Bring back the little blue cars that actually formed the scheme. The car is for the disabled person not a family of 5. Let's see how many take up the offer.

@Artemisfornow What cars are given out and for how much upfront is dictated to by the manufacturers. They quite often put new models on the scheme for less than their other vehicles,to get them out on the rds. The taxpayer pays no more for this than a micra. But most better cars = more upfront£

Well that’s got you all wound up. And I don’t care! This showroom model is top of the range and the salesman said about £60k for this one. My point remains exactly the same! This car should not be included in a mobility scheme ultimately funded by tax payers through benefits and welfare. Most hardworking taxpayers couldn’t afford to slam down the £5-6k deposit let alone the over £500 a month cost. It’s unfair, unsustainable and it is absolutely not your RIGHT to expect others to pay for it.

@Artemisfornow You realise that the more expensive cars cost large upfront cash payments. My last one was £5K. Every car costs the taxpayer exactly the same £. The diff. is paid by the person getting the car out of their own money. Yes some of us work and are even high tax payers just in ♿️'s

@Write4Republic Most people in the UK don't even want to visit the US at the moment

Liberate our friends in the UK. Make the UK the 51st state.

@OooorWuuuuly @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone I think it's limited to 4 yrs ( or 5 if on a masters degree from the start). Exceptions are 1 extra yr for teacher training & yrs medicine/veterinary. What subjects may need to be debated. But teaching of these subjects in school would also need consideration ( languages history)

@jac_mac91 @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone Agreed, the 'free' university is also good however I now wonder if that should be limited to 1 degree and only degrees that lead to essential jobs we are short of candidates for.

@jude22118 Scientists here in remission from leukaemia. Treatment has left me with 0 lymphocytes. I mask ( FFP2) in certain places because I understand my high risk if infected ( not just COVID had to do tjis since 2018). You don't know others' risks

@LolaOllhey @inezalbright2 My friends sister had a kid at 13 ( boy 14). She is now a uni lecturer in physics, and her son is a surgeon. It takes the right kind of family to support and a lot of hard work, but some do OK. ( all be it with a sad loss of their childhood)

@inezalbright2 My neighbors are 54 (dad), the daughter (40). I can attest that you will most likely grow up to be a loser like my neighbors if you have a kid this young. Making horrible decisions!!!

@karen_stenner @anishmoonka Daughter had 4 3rd set of teeth.we panicked when a 2nd started to fall out. Dentist was amazed. We were able to show pics of 1st set, then gap, 2nd set then gap. The root wasn't big enough for full normal 2nd tooth. We rushed over to dentist to get it put back

Your jaw has the parts to grow a third set of teeth. They never finished forming. A protein in your body kept them locked away since before you were born. Japan's new drug blocks that protein. The lock comes off. Those buried tooth parts wake up and grow into real teeth. In 2018, this worked on mice. It worked again on ferrets. The team picked ferrets because, like humans, ferrets grow two sets of teeth in their lifetime. Rats and mice don't. Human trials started at Kyoto University in late 2024. Thirty men, aged 30 to 64, each with at least one missing molar, are receiving injections. This first round only tests safety. Whether it grows teeth in real people is still unknown. That data is years away. The first patients to be treated will be young children, ages 2 to 7, born missing 6 or more permanent teeth. This is a rare birth defect affecting about 1 in 1,000 people. Trials in those kids run through 2027. The next round through 2029. Earliest public sale: 2030. For adults losing teeth to cavities, accidents, or old age, the wait is longer. Toregem itself admits dentures and implants will stay the standard answer for years. A single implant in America costs $3,000 to $6,000, and the global implant market was worth $5.5 billion in 2025. So the headline oversells things. Nobody is replacing implants this decade. But the Japanese dentist behind the drug spent nearly 30 years working on this. He found an ancient genetic switch our bodies stopped flipping long ago, and built a way to flip it back on.

@OooorWuuuuly @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone Happy to pay more for what it has given in return

@jac_mac91 @SPCB12345 @DrNeilStone Those that pay Income Tax in Scotland are paying more which in part covers the costs of prescriptions etc. None of it is free unless you don't pay your way in society.
