Hello again @ScotRail The train that was cancelled at the last minute last week has just been cancelled again - at the last minute. I had checked before leaving the house and it was running as planned. If you are cancelling every week would you please just be honest about it??!!

Train cancelled two minutes before it’s due, due to ‘lack of train driver’. @ScotRail I’m thinking you might have known there was no train driver more than two minutes ago??

Team Beatson (with excellent rep from the uro-oncology team) training is underway for Strictly Beatson extravaganza. Some @Uromigos and brain tumour research colleagues may be surprised (and delighted) by a face or two! @ProfAJChalmers @Beatson_Charity youtu.be/jfFbkudZbC8

Dear @TheAA_UK Somewhat surprised to receive my car insurance renewal quote showing my premium has gone from £524 to £1821 despite no change in circumstances (same car/no claims/20+ yrs no claim bonus). Your customer service equally at a loss!

Hi, ER Doc here. RT if you’ve ever done CPR on someone and they survived. Trying to prove something.

A thread for the ultra-wealthy. If you are wealthy, you may think that if the U.K. switches from an NHS-model to a private model of healthcare it will either a) be better for you, or b) will not affect you. Here is why you are wrong… 🧵

UK oncology departments are facing a critical lack of capacity to deliver systemic anti-cancer therapies (SACT) to patients. That's why we, along with @ACPUK, @BOPACommittee and @UKONSmember, have written to @SteveBarclay outlining the challenge and requesting to meet.

The UK has just abandoned its cancer plan. The EU is heading in the opposite direction, and surely the correct one. Prostate cancer a key component of this. #eau23
