The UK had a world beating organ transplant service (in the NHS) but now due to staffing problems & old(er) technologies it lags other European counties on the number of transplants successfully achieved & the subsequent survival rate. Even though we 'harvest' organs at a rate in line with other counties we use a lower proportion for actual transplants. Its just one more fatal consequence of the Tory engineered (but continuing) NHS crisis. #NHS #transplants #politics https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clyrj8rz6jno

YANWEN2016 2026/03/24 伊朗作为宗教国家不应该耍花招，美国作为商业国家耍一些花招缓和市场 🇲🇲（美联社）美国总统唐纳德·特朗普总统在对伊朗战争的第四周伊始，向世界表达了一些谨慎的乐观态度，认为美国可能很快结束行动，这一说法引发市场欢呼，但伊朗官员则将其视为拖延冲突时间的伎俩。在市场开盘前的社交媒体消息中，特朗普表示，除非德黑兰在周一晚上前开放霍尔木兹海峡，否则他将推迟五天后宣布的轰炸伊朗核电站计划。特朗普解释说，他决定暂缓针对伊朗关键基础设施的攻击，是因为他的特使贾里德·库什纳和史蒂夫·维特科夫在周末与未具名的“受人尊敬”的伊朗官员就结束敌对行动进行了“非常好”的会谈。特朗普在周一早晨对记者说，“我想，如果我是个赌徒，我会押注。但我不能保证什么。”伊朗议会议长穆罕默德·巴格尔·卡利巴夫表示，他曾与美国特使史蒂夫·维特科夫和贾里德·库什纳交谈，但他在X上发文：“与美国没有进行任何谈判。假新闻被用来操纵金融和石油市场，摆脱美国和以色列陷入的泥潭。”伊朗外交部还表示，特朗普的声明不过是“降低能源价格、争取时间实施军事计划”的努力。以色列总理本杰明·内塔尼亚胡表示，他周一已与美国总统通话，总统“相信有机会在以色列和美国取得巨大成功基础上，在维护我们重要利益的协议框架内实现战争目标”。 #News #Commentary #Politics #Theravada

AI-generated content is trickling into political ad campaigns, from school board bids to governor's races. The technology is being used to enhance speech, turn politicians into cartoons and mimic rival's voices and often without AI disclaimers, sparking concerns that everyday voters could easily be misled. https://flip.it/q4wY3g #TechNews #AI #Politics #USNews

Make sure people know: DONALD TRUMP says airports will stay fucked until Democrats agree to vote for_ the Women's Disenfranchisement ("save") Act. Everybody who complains about airports, everyone who complaints about gas prices, anyone who complains about anything: Donald Trump HIMSELF will not let it get fixed UNTIL 21 MILLION WOMEN are disenfranchised. And that they need to strap in and hold steady, because we cannot let that happen. #uspol #uspolitics #politics #fascism #FuckTrump #FuckRepublicans #FuckTheGOP #FuckAllOfThem

As Rachel Reeves (finally) swings behind an explicit statement that Brexit has cost the UK around 8% of GDP, we might as what that looks like: It equals around £224bn a year (in 2025), which given the UK's tax burden of around 35% is £78bn in lost tax revenue a year. So if you wondering why the public sector is under-funded, while a continuing austerity logic is always in play, this lost tax income for the state is also contributing to budget shortfalls. #Brexit #politics h/t Observer

The Trump Administration is Trafficking Pregnant Children to Texas So They Can't Get Abortions – At least half of these unaccompanied migrant kids are rape victims, and all are being denied adequate medical care for high-risk pregnancies in a state with sky-high maternal mortality rates. https://www.throughline.news/p/the-trump-administration-is-trafficking –– 'As part of its strategy of arresting and warehousing immigrants in abhorrent conditions which are leading to illness and even death, the Trump administration is grabbing up pregnant and unaccompanied migrant children from across the country and shipping them off to Texas so that they can’t get safe and legal abortions — and where they also don’t get adequate medical care. This is an administration rule: If an undocumented child is pregnant, she goes to a single South Texas shelter in San Benito, where abortion is outlawed and where she will be hours away from the large hospitals that have the kind of specialized obstetric care that pregnant girls need. The girls are being sent to Texas specifically because Texas bans abortion, and moving them there means that they won’t be able to end their pregnancies...' #USpol #USA #Trump #Politics #Abortion #ReproductiveRights #Feminism #ICE #Fascism
