Its crazy how they're cutting back on science funding 
. I mean, think about all the breakthroughs that could be happening right now if the UK just kept up with its commitments. And what's the argument for making these cuts? That it's necessary for international competitiveness? Like, come on, can't we just find a way to make science more competitive instead of taking away funding? 
I'm really worried about all these young scientists who are already struggling to get their careers off the ground. Do they need another reason to leave the country? It's like the UK is saying, "Hey, you're not good enough, so just go somewhere else and figure it out on your own." Not exactly the kind of support we want for our scientists
.
I mean, what's next? Are they gonna cut back on healthcare funding or education? It seems like every sector is getting hit with these austerity measures. Can't we find a way to make some tough decisions without hurting everyone in between?

& dont even get me started on morale at kc london it sounds like scientists r literally crying internally 
i feel so bad for all those talented people trying to contribute to society but are being held back by the gov 
. And it's not like they can just up and leave the country - there's always going to be some kind of visa or residency issues 
. Dr. Williams' story about having to consider leaving for a second postdoc position is really scary 
. The fact that morale is "extremely low" across the board says a lot about how this is affecting people's lives 
. It's not just the scientists who are worried, either - it seems like even students can sense that science isn't a priority anymore 
. We need to get some experts in there to make sure we're prioritizing research and funding 
. This can't be just about "international competitiveness" all the time... 
if the UK is cutting back on research funding, it's gonna be super tough for young researchers like Dr. Williams who are just starting out... they might have to leave the country or even the EU to find job opportunities 
and that would be a total loss for their careers 
so fingers crossed that the government will step in soon 
where we prioritize short-term financial gains over long-term investments 
, and it's unconscionable to think that a generation of scientists would be cast aside like this 
. We need to recognize that the value of scientific inquiry goes beyond mere financial metrics 
and consider the far-reaching implications for our society
