Indeed .. @MetroMayorSteve has just raised the tolls for those outside the Liverpool area by 50%. Many have no choice but to pay this to get to work. He says he’s against profiteering .. actions speak louder than words.

Great to have our paper on the drivers behind veterinary surgeon decisions on antimicrobial prescribing in livestock featured as a research highlight in the Vet Record. It makes the hard work of the team worthwhile. #amr #antimicrobialprescribing @IGHLiverpool @njwillms

Am struggling to see that English local election results unequivocally mean people want Brexit done/dusted. Remainer Lib Dems and Greens did well. Brexiter Tories and Brexitish(or maybe not) Labour didn’t. Uber-Brexit UKIP also didn’t do well

Nigel Farage has been an elected MEP since 1999, but now says he comes out of "semi – retirement". As I already warned in 2012, the biggest waste of EU resources is Nigel Farage's salary. Why would anyone re-elect him to this role?

Our paper on Seoul virus in wild rats published in the vet record yesterday. #hantavirus #publichealth
This research, by Murphy et al, suggests that Seoul virus could be widespread in wild rats in Great Britain and therefore pose a potential risk to public health. Read the full paper at: ow.ly/CPjN50sjZjG
