I forgot how exhausting engaging in X can be. However, it’s a great platform for those who like being upset, angry, argumentative, and various right wing tropes.

Thank you to @Daily_Express for covering the important issue of the ongoing and worsening medicines shortages.

It was lovely to visit the team from Clayton Pharmacy today in their new home in the Herlington Centre, Peterborough. They've had a difficult few months, but they're now looking forward to welcoming back patients, old and new!

Overwhelmed. Genuinely. The messages, the shares, the people reaching out from places I did not expect. Thank you.
I have not done anything special here. I just put into words what we have all felt. With the world's attention on Pakistan this week, it felt important to set the record straight. Who we are and who we are not.
What I think gets missed in conversations about Pakistan is that despite the incredible diversity, the languages, the provinces, the traditions, we have managed to forge a national identity that is distinctly and unapologetically our own. That deserves to be named and taken pride in.
I am as Pakistani as they come. I have lived and breathed everything in that piece. At the same time, I've grown up and have spent most of my life outside Pakistan, working in international media, I know how to write for those audiences. That combination is probably why the piece lands. I know the country from the inside. I know how to explain it to the outside. This piece was the bridge.
Thank you for crossing it with me.

ITV pulling zero punches in this incredible footage - "This landscape of destruction looks otherworldy, but it's not, it's this world - What is happening may come to define one of its darkest eras, one that casts a stain on humanity, which will endure for generations" #Gaza

This is the best ever true news BBC ever made about Israel, 4 minutes but every minute is extremely important

If you are in even the tiniest position of power to do anything about this and you try, you’ll never regret it even if it costs you personally and professionally. If you don’t you will live with the shame the rest of your life. This is one of those moments.
🚨 In the last 24 hours, three Palestinian children have died of starvation in Gaza:
▪️ Infant Jawad Al-Anqar (35 days old) died in Gaza City.
▪️ Yahya Al-Najjar, a child from Khan Younis, died at Nasser Hospital.
▪️ Toddler Sanaa Al-Lahham (1.5 years old) died in Deir al-Balah.
Medical sources tell Drop Site that 71 children have now died from hunger and malnutrition. They warn of a critical shortage of baby formula and basic healthcare amid a suffocating blockade that continues to block food and aid.
Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports that people of all ages are fainting in the streets, and patients are being picked up off the ground. Hospitals are overwhelmed and unable to help.
Doctors in Gaza are calling this a U.S.- and Israeli-engineered famine — systematic and deliberate.

Though #ArshadNadeem & #NeerajChopra are reported to be friends even though they compete for “rival” countries, they show that your passport is a distant second to your character. The media and politicians of Ind and Pk show again that they love to spew out divisiveness and hate.
BIG BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Neeraj Chopra wins Silver at Paris Olympics.
Pakistan's Arshad Nadeem wins Gold. Pakistan had not won even a single medal in Olympics after 1992 Olympics.
Arshad threw the javelin at a record distance of 92.97 meters.
Neeraj Chopra sent javelin at an impressive distance of 89.45 meters.

Trevor Phillips, "How are pharmacists supposed to do this when they have have had a real terms funding cut of about 16% in the last year"
Victoria Atkins, "This is part of my reforms to the NHS to make it faster, simpler and fairer"
TP, "You're giving pharmacists more work and less money"
VA, "That's not correct"
TP, "Pharmacists are saying that they'd love to do more work but they can't afford it"
VA, "Every pharmacist I have visited have seized the opportunity of Pharmacy First.. In the first month some 120,000 appointments were conducted"
TP, "Yeah but that's tiny by comparison with what you're promising.. You're promising to free up 20 million appointments"

Yesterday, our #Fight4Pharmacies campaign event with 50 MPs in @UKParliament delivered our “Prescription to Save Pharmacies” to @10DowningStreet calling for action. Every £1 invested in pharmacies saves £2 in secondary care. Please support change.org/pharmacies 💊📢
#Pharmacy
Fantastic day at Westminster meeting MPs to look at #pharmacy funding and the consequences to the sector and patient safety if this is not addressed. And then to drop off a petition signed by MPs for #10DowningSt @IPAPharmacy @ImaanHealthcare
teapaw.org/rishisunak/status/1793… Rishi missed off his reasons for calling an election “pharmacists came knocking on the door yesterday asking for enhanced funding and I thought I better call an election”.
