1. @auscandoc, @glenpyle and @GidMK I haven’t forgotten about you. I’ve finally found the time to go over all the relevant documents about the Wakefield case and respond to you. It’s forced me to take a deep dive into the material and understand it very well. #vaccine #autism
2. @auscandoc in your Nov. 27 tweets you used information from the UK’s General Medical Council (GMC) findings (theoneclickgroup.co.uk/documents/vacc…, Findings Of Fact Summary2.pdf)
3. But you ignored most of the information in the AHRP article. ahrp.org/laffaire-wakef…

The sound of #women determined to defend our hard won sex-based rights must never be underestimated.

The room is packed, the noise is deafening.

The Women's Liberation Movement is very much alive!

Meghan Murphy states 'I have an overzealous commitment to authenticity'

'Women and Girls are being told the can't have boundaries'

#WPUKLondon
'Feminists insist on the 'reactionary' category of #Woman'

'An analysis of power; who holds it, how and why is lacking'

'United we stand, divided we fall'

'We still need single-sex spaces and the right to self-organise'

Meghan Murphy and Ken Zucker are giving a talk about trans kids in Vancouver this Thursday as part of a series called “GIDYVR”. For those unfamilair, GID was a diagnosis removed from the DSM in 2013 because it pathologized trans identity. A THREAD:

Meghan Murphy needs no introduction, but for those unfamiliar with Ken Zucker’s work, below are links to what myself and many others have written. First, a short video of San Francisco community health worker @_riparia_ at the 2017 USPATH Conference
An op ed from 2015: “Fix Society Please: Final Words of Transgender Teen are a Wake-Up Call to Stop “Fixing” Trans Kids and Start Repairing Their Broken Worlds”

#Löger ist ein Lobbyist privater #Pensionsversicherungen. Was er über das staatliche #Pensionssystem sagt ist schlicht falsch. Österreich kann es sich gut leisten, Menschen nach 40 Jahren Arbeit ihre #Pension auszuzahlen. Aber Löger will ein Millionengeschäft für Versicherungen.
Etwa 6 Prozent der staatlichen Ausgaben fließen in die Pensionen. Die Beiträge der Versicherten decken die Pensions-Auszahlungen immer besser. Für den Zeitraum 2016 bis 2020 werden vom Staat insgesamt 4 Milliarden weniger für das Pensionssystem ausgegeben als erwartet.
Misst man die staatlichen Ausgaben am BIP, zeigt sich: Der Anteil bleibt in den nächsten Jahren stabil – obwohl die Zahl der Personen, die ins Pensionsalter kommen, steigt.

Council starting its debate on the road salting and calcium chloride pilot project.
Goal was to reach bare pavement last year with various techniques. Calcium chloride provider Tiger Calcium is in the audience for chemistry questions 😏
edmontonjournal.com/news/local-new… #yegcc #yegtraffic
Chemistry 101 - Salt works by disrupting the crystal structure of water molecules as they form ice, melting it, officials tell council.
A corrosion inhibitor works by creating a film on the metal to protect it while the salt still melts the ice.
#yegcc
Did the city see any impacts from the increased road salt on the city fleet? No, says director Janet Tecklenborg.
"We have seen no significant and measurable impact to date." #yegcc
