@sarajcox Grease. At 4, I was the youngest in the cinema. Apparently spent a lot of time afterwards skipping with my hands behind my back like Olivia Newton John and told everyone I was going to marry John Travolta.

@1stepsnutrition @BflgUk @GwynneMP @SKinnock They don't change! This is EXACTLY the tactics deployed in the neo-natal ward I worked in in Addis. Lovely, fitted gowns offered to midwives who only had old tatty one. Branded of course. Disgusting.

Best book I’ve read in decades… I don’t actually know when I’ve read something this exciting & moving & brilliantly comprehensive & mind altering. Thank you @wwnorton @RobGMacfarlane 🙏

Good news. Fed up with the e-waste on the streets. Don't get me started on the advertising of e-cigs to young people. #publichealth #tobacco
The UK 🇬🇧 - another @WHO_Europe Member State - is banning the sale & supply of single-use e-cigarettes from 1 June 2025. Banning single-use e-cigarettes will help reduce plastic pollution & protect our children’s #health. Strong policies like this pave the way for a healthier, cleaner future. 🙏 🇬🇧! @DHSCgovuk @wesstreeting @CMO_England @AmandaPritchard

What a life story! I loved Joan Aiken's books as a child- happy to learn more about the woman herself. #books
‘One of the most beloved writers of all time’: the genius of Joan Aiken at 100. People ask where I got the inspiration for my sequence of interconnected novels. It was Balzac and Trollope - but before them, Joan Aiken
