I haven't joined these protests thus far. I'm now tempted to do so with my GMC number on display!

I am furious that the GMC has done this. Bawa Garba scale wrongness.

If the Scottish Assisted Dying Bill passes, there will be places in the UK where people can access assisted dying, but not specialist palliative care.

Think about it.

We all know climate anxiety isn't a disorder but a normal, rational reaction to a devastating threat

I worry about those who aren't worried
