Tell Wes Streeting: give MPs a vote on NHS deal with Trump The UK government has agreed a deal with Donald Trump that will see the NHS pay pharma companies much higher drugs prices. This will cost the NHS £9 billion a year by 2036 – but so far the government has refused to say where it will get the money. A huge majority (64%) of the British public oppose giving big pharma companies more money if it means diverting funding from other parts of the NHS. And experts say doing so would result in tens of thousands of excess deaths each year. On this matter of crucial importance to the NHS, this secrecy is outrageous. What do ministers have to hide?

The UK government has agreed a deal with Donald Trump that will hike NHS drugs prices by £9 BILLION a year by 2036. Tell Wes Streeting to give MPs a full debate and vote on this deal.

🚨 PhD opportunity announcement 🚨

We have two new PhD opportunities in the Water and Climate Research Lab funded by NERC CENTA:

The first is looking at extreme events in data driven weather/climate models:

Petition: Transparency and Review of the free zones and ports impacts To ensure full transparency by releasing data on governance, funding, and operations of free zones. Plus a public review to assess impacts, such as job displacement and value for taxpayers money

People are complaining that they don't understand my petition, and that I should dumb it down, so here goes.
Your country is being cut up into pieces and sold off to corporations.
If you don't sign this petition, you will lose everything.

Water vapour is increasing with and amplifying warming as expected: doi.org/10.1029/2022...
This is intensifying the global water cycle and swings between wet & dry extremes which will only accelerate without rapid and massive cuts in greenhouse gases

For the uninitiated, this is a trap. #ProofOfCat

See below for details of Leicester's Physics & Astronomy PhD applications process this year. I'm hoping to recruit a new student to work on protoplanetary discs, and my colleagues are offering a range of fascinating projects as well. 🔭

Hi

I'm brand new to Bluesky

My name is Siobhan, I'm a nurse activist who fights for better pay and conditions for NHS workers.

I post about the NHS from an on the ground perspective

Water vapour isotopes over West Africa as observed from space: which processes control tropospheric H2O/HDO pair distributions? Abstract. The West African Monsoon (WAM) represents the main source of rainfall over West Africa and thus has important socio-economic impacts. However, the complex interactions of the large-scale cir...
