What happens if you follow the licence for antipsychotic treatment in dementia? Our target trial emulation shows stopping treatment after 12 or 24 weeks reduced risk of delirium and fractures but had no effect on stroke, pneumonia and all cause mortality.

I've been to France. Portugal. Across Europe.
People aren't hustling 70 hours. They're having dinner at 9pm with families.
Walking to the bakery on Tuesdays. Living.
And they're fine. More than fine.
The hustle narrative is an American export. It's not a law of nature.

Not a single Brexit dinosaur has ever been able to explain how increasing trade barriers helps the UK grow GDP.
Only reply they have left now is 'but..but..Germany..'
As if that's somehow relevant.
What a bunch of economically illiterate 🤡🤡

If you're a Brexit economic impact denialist at this point just block me please. Or reply with your denial and I'll block you. It's so damaging to Britain and such a sign of incapacity for self reflection that I'm not willing to entertain it any more. So sad.

🔵 @jonsopel to Jenrick, “It was about personal ambition!”
“You were a Brexiteer when Boris... You said it's a shame that Liz Truss is still in the Conservative Party- but you voted for her budget. And now, when the Tories are languishing in the polls, which they most certainly are, you've gone to the party that is leading in the polls, and you've got shadow treasury spokesperson job.”
Jenrick gets angry, “I'm not gonna take any lessons from the man who said that Peter Mandelson was a class act, when he was appointed as our ambassador to Washington.

It would be really great if a few more friends on X completed this survey to help us with our research on political ideologies.

Farage's girlfriend illegally funnelled £400,000 of EU grant funding to Farage's UKIP - I guess he owed her a favour

Farage could possibly sue me for insinuating the purchase of a house in Clacton was for money laundering purposes, but he won't because then he'd have to disclose the source of the funds.

Ethics committee please @HoCStandards.
I want to see clarity on his house buying, his GB News salary, his offshore accounts, a Reform membership audit, data collection and how it's used and fossil fuel funding.
NEW: Nigel Farage tells @BethRigby he "misspoke" last year when he told her: "I've bought a house in Clacton."
Says he should have said "we" then admits it was actually bought by his partner, who paid the standard rate of stamp duty.

This deeply unethical anti science claptrap is truly dangerous
“It’s highly likely that the Covid vaccines have been a significant factor in the cancers of members of the royal family” says Dr Aseem Malhotra on the main stage at Reform’s party conference
