Hi Lufthansa How do I get an update on a compensation claim for our cancelled flights a month ago. Can’t find an online/email/phone option.

Everyone interested in research in emergency medicine should check out the new top 10 research priorities following the JLA EM PSP and Royal College of Emergency Medicine refresh process.

Very happy to see number 2 which is a particular interest of mine on older peoples trauma #RCEMasc

Your risk of dying within 30 days of admission to hospital from A&E is now more than 🔟 times higher (16 effing %) if you spent 12 or more hours, vs 4 or less hours in A&E.
We should be seething with outrage.

A redesign of Battlefield Rd will make it safer for pedestrians & cyclists, create more civic space & support public transport improvements. The design is part of the overall Connecting Battlefield plans.

Read the plans and have your say by Aug 14 👉 ow.ly/Abx350K8k2H

Essential surveying for all those in Emergency Medicine.

Get involved if you want the next rounds of national research funding to represent your priorities and those of the patients you care for.

Amazing that this was exactly one year ago. Didn’t think I’d finish but visited all 113 parks in 8 months. Been back to visit quite a few and Glasgow so lucky to have as many fantastic green spaces. Kirsty Colquhoun Glasgow City Council #Longwalksinthecity

Our General Secretary and Chief Executive pat cullen has written to Michael Fabricant 🇬🇧🇮🇱🇺🇦 over his comments today on nurses drinking in staff rooms during #COVID19 .

Word of the day is 'maw-worm' (19th century): one who insists that they have done nothing wrong, despite evidence to the contrary.

So a defence used on news programmes by a Tory MP to the fines was that nurses and doctors were all meeting for drinks/parties after shifts. No we weren’t. Seething at the entitlement of those at No 10. Normally don’t post anything political but just sick of their lies. #Resign

Thousands of people could be dying waiting for ambulances or because of long waits on trolleys in A&E. While Sajid Javid talks about elective backlogs, emergency care in the NHS is collapsing. Today's @thesundaytimes report here:

Just finished reading War Doctor: Surgery on the Front Line by David Nott. Not normally a fan of medical biographies but this was brilliant. Can’t believe all he achieved and the danger he put himself in. Once sat next to him on a panel Q&A - such a lovely guy. David Nott Foundation

I’ve just filled out my @gmc trainers survey. I would summarise my responses as brutally honest.

Just spent the last two days overseeing the medical finals at the James McCune Smith Learning hub. Absolutely stunning with space for over 2500 students and so different to the drafty spaces we had when I was a student. Story of JMS fascinating as well. University of Glasgow UofG Medicine

Good luck to all medical students at University of Glasgow sitting their finals today. UofG Medicine

Not sure how I will feel for the World Cup draw. First time we are in it since 1998 but need to win 2 tough matches to be there. All a bit weird. Deen H #WorldCup2022
