RT @jsm2334: Sorry Kat, these were passive reports were among tens of million vaccinated, and were analyzed with all of the other passive reporting systems including VAERs in the USA to identify potential safety signals. Your suggestion these reports were “hidden” and not followed up is untrue. Plus, you are reporting sheer numbers without context for dramatic effect because the numbers sound big. However, given tens of millions vaccinated during that time, who during this early rollout time.period were largely elderly, the background rate of such events (events expected to occur by random chance during that time period if vaccines caused 0 of them) is very large. With passive reporting the raw numbers mean nothing without considering the denominator and, given lack of raw numbers for unvaccinated controls, the background event rate.

RT @nickofnz: People are joining together to reject the far-right. Hungary did. Brazil did. Serbia did. We can too.

RT @swd2: This was the moment Barack Obama broke Donald Trump. It was so bad that Trump has not experienced one second of joy since then.

RT @justdavenow89: Tommy Robinson found guilty by a jury anyway whats for tea tonight

RT @L_Anon_: @OperaSocialist Also people could be returned if not contributing after 3 months but the tories never enforced that

RT @OperaSocialist: France, Germany and Italy currently have Freedom of Movement within the EU but amazingly 500 million people are not all trying to move to Paris, Berlin or Rome... Don't believe the lies, Freedom of Movement would be a benefit to the UK.

RT @GyllKing: @TimesRadio Singapore eh? Where the govt (unchanged since 1959) tightly restricts public assembly, free speech, & media operations. Laws like the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act (POFMA) allow authorities to heavily regulate online discourse and prosecute dissent.

RT @GyllKing: This multi millionaire public school boy lives in Thailand & holds an official UK non-resident status, meaning he pays zero income tax in the UK. He thinks we should forgo our human rights & democracy and be ruled by rich people. The sociopathy of wealth red in tooth & claw.

The UK must be "cruel to be kind" to be successful in the next ten years, says Yo Sushi! founder Simon Woodroffe. "Economic success trumps individuals' human rights."

RT @BladeoftheS: Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit. About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit. Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?

RT @SSpence64: @HewittRincrast @ScienceQriosity @ScientiaPercept @drbigbeef @DennisMJordan @Heatinsider Presuppositionalism is as useless for determining truth as faith is. You assume your conclusion is true and that’s the end of your “argument.” Not even an attempt to examine it.

RT @BladeoftheS: The only unaffordable thing in the UK is greed. £150bn Tax Evasion £80bn Tax Breaks £219bn Corruption £449bn - 40% of the entire budget STOLEN by the richest. That is DOUBLE the entire NHS budget. Take it back.

RT @implausibleblog: Ed Davey calls on Labour to join the EU Single Market and the Customs Union before the next election. Andy Burnham says he's sticking with Labour's red lines for the duration of this parliament. This should be an important reminder to anyone saying Andy Burnham opening the conversation of rejoining the EU is breaking Labour's red lines; it's not. Having a conversation with the EU, scoping our alternatives, including a full rejoin EU, is what any sensible government should be doing, especially given the economic impact on our country. That some are so ideologically opposed to exploring how to improve trade and co-operation with the biggest economic bloc which is on our doorstep, should be a stark warning that they are less interested in what is better for the country and more interested in a particularly ideology, whose outcome keeps the country worse off than it needs to be.

RT @Parody_PM: A sure sign that a party is patriotic is when 80% of its funding comes from people who don't live in the UK.

RT @DaleVince: The banks are having a laugh - £200 Billion over last five years - more than half of that is money we pay them, interest on the cash they hold. We need to cut benefits - to banks. The EU did already, as did Switzerland (famously good at looking after money).

RT @McClureShawn: The "immaterial" trope survives only because it is unfalsifiable and emotionally convenient. It is not supported by evidence, not required by logic, and not consistent with the conservation of energy or the dependence of every measured cognitive capacity on neural tissue.

RT @RichardBurgon: Well, well, well... 80% of "donations" to Nigel Farage’s party are from donors or companies based overseas. This is not normal. And the public deserves to know what these super-rich donors want back in return.

RT @andrewhesselden: Suppose a British manufacturer needs a specialist engineer from Europe to expand. Recruiting that engineer could make it possible to employ 20 more local people. Is that engineer taking a British job? Or helping create 20 of them? Labour markets aren't simple subtraction.

RT @Charlyf_81: We need to #RejoinTheEU 🇪🇺

RT @80_mcswan: General Election poll, folks. If we had a vote tomorrow, who gets your vote? More options on page below.

RT @GlynnErnesto: The right keeps telling us how much disdain they have for elections and democracy, we should really be paying more attention.

Anybody else think that @realDonaldTrump should pull a Maduro on Lula? The sooner, the better?
