I am leading a Welsh Labour Party that will listen to people in every part of the country. Thank you @JackSargeantAM for taking the time to talk to me about the issues facing North Wales.

What a great day, @KamalaHarris and @Eluned_Morgan hopefully running for the leadership of their parties. Both would be historical achievements, first female President and First Minister

I’m really hoping @Eluned_Morgan stands, she’ll make an excellent First Minister and will unite the party. Selfless decision by Jeremy Miles whose time to lead I’m confident will come

There are no longer any Tory MPs in Wales. They had 11 in 2019. Now a total Conservative wipeout.

Surgeons tend to know to stay above Rouviere's sulcus during cholecystectomy. Few non-HPB surgeons truly appreciate why. This robotic chole using ICG cholangiography shows the relationship of the right hepatic duct to this landmark.

Delighted to see our work published in @BjsOpen. Lucky to be part of a great team. Cost-utility analyses should be routine for all proposed medical treatments. @GeraintHerbert @DaveRobinson90 @wynglewis #OesophagealCancer #Oesophagectomy
Economic cost-utility analysis of stage-directed oesophageal cancer treatment ➡️doi.org/10.1093/bjsopen/zrad… This is the first cost-utility analysis of stage-directed potentially curative oesophageal cancer therapy. The salient findings were that surgery was cost-effective at nationally accepted thresholds of readiness to pay per QALY. Costs per QALY increased incrementally and proportionately with the stage of OC so that stage I treatment cost per QALY was a fifth of that associated with BSC, and stage III treatment cost per QALY less than half that of BSC. 👏👏👏@GeraintHerbert, David B T Robinson, Arfon G Powell, @TazAbdel, @UsmanTransplant, @wynglewis #SoMe4Surgery #MedTwitter #SurgEd #Surgery @for_surgery @for_surgeons @modern_surgeon @surggpt @me4_so @BJSAcademy @BJSurgery @young_bjs @juliomayol @JJEarnshaw @OUPMedicine #some4UGI #uppergi #esophagealcancer @Augishealth @roux_group

Today I miss Tony Lloyd, quietly diligently fighting causes. He was an ally in the fight of violence against women and lovely gentle soul
