Read an excerpt of my new book, if you like. Although they've helpfully picked the bit that contains the longest sentence in the entire thing. I promise it's not all like this.

@mayorofhackney @hackneycouncil After seeing the video today of @wfcouncil's efforts to make cyclelanes safe from snow and ice (), I'm wondering why Hackney's prioritisation page doesn't list cyclelanes at all (hackney.gov.uk/gritting)?

A very important @NEJM paper on 528 #monkeypox cases in 16 nations indicates sex between men drives the outbreak. 98% were gay or bi men, 75% were white, 41% had HIV. No women. 95% of cases thought to have transmitted during sex. See 🧵⬇️ for details nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

An important call for us all to do better, "resist oversimplified dichotomies, and instead use nuanced terms that recognise the vast variations among countries and people, and respect how people want to be described"

The global monkeypox outbreak is disproportionately affecting queer men. My latest story examines how public health is balancing the need to warn a susceptible community with the danger of stigmatizing it - and how the legacy of AIDS shapes the response wapo.st/3NN2xKu

Hate is a strong word. But the racist relying on black English footballers to bring them glory as if they were their servants, then turning on them as soon as they fell short of their dreams, have my deepest contempt.

"Without challenging the origins of racial differentiation, health institutions have deepened the stigmatisation of racialised groups with framings such as “Black mothers are more likely to die than white mothers” instead of “structural racism is killing Black mothers”. "

Are you sad and angry about the surge in anti-Asian violence? Wondering if there’s something anti-racist you can do? One idea: learn how pronounce Asian names! It doesn’t have to be perfect. Just try, and it will make a difference to your Asian friends and people you meet. (1/8)
