A Twitter round up, including a great question to the PM from Munira Wilson and a punchy interview with Christine Jardine. Another day of chaos. Every day the Conservatives allow Boris Johnson to cling on to power does more damage to our country. — Ed Davey (@EdwardJDavey) July 6, 2022
It's not just the Wise Woman of Wing who can foretell the future. I sent this tweet a couple of months before Boris Johnson became leader of the Conservative Party and thus prime minister. I suspect a Boris Johnson premiership will not end with him in tears outside no. 10, but rather with him running down Whitehall in polka dot boxer shorts pursued by an angry mob. — Jonathan Calder (@lordbonkers) May 25, 2019
This is too little too late. Robert was a cheerleader for Johnson even though it was obvious to many that he was wholly unsuited to the job. When the dodgy contracts were being handed out he was in the thick of it. His own department had to admit in court that he acted unlawfully. His letter today is driven entirely by self interest. It is an attempt to save his own political skin. The post Reaction To Robert Jenrick Calling on PM To Resign first appeared on David Watts.
Since our last post on the subject three junior ministers have resigned – John Glen (Treasury Minister), Robin Walker (Minister for school standards) and Will Quince (Minister for children and families). Joining them are one more Tory aide and one more Trade envoy. So that makes five Tory aides, four junior ministers, two senior cabinet ministers, two trade envoys and the vice-chair of the Conservatives. (Just need another cabinet minister to make it singable) On top of that several more backbench MPs have sent letters of no confidence to the 1922 Committee. PMQs should be interesting. Update One more junior ...

It isn't just the fact that the extra £360m a week for the NHS was a lie, but that leaving the EU is actually costing us more than if we had stayed in. The Guardian reports that at least £450m of taxpayers' money has been spent on facilities to handle post-Brexit checks, which have now been delayed and may never happen. The paper says that a new hi-tech border control post in POrtsmouth, built over the past 18 months at a cost of £25m, a cost shared by the taxpayer and the port's owner, Portsmouth city council, should be in ...

The Gompertz-Makeham law of mortality is a formula used to predict mortality. The Makeham element is the external part of this such as disease or accidents. The Gompertz part relates to the gradual deterioration of health of an entity. Not all animals follow the Gompertz formula, but Human Beings do. It is an exponential increase in death rates with age. My view is that this implies that at
Part of my hypothesis that there is a feedback mechanism between the failure of Stem Cells to Differentiate and the failure of more Stem cells to differentiate is that failed stem cells (senescent cells) issue a molecule as part of SASP into the blood which then affects other Stem Cells. I think it is most likely that this molecule is Interleukin-10. (In fact having done the research I think it

What a night. Boris Johnson apologised for appointing Chris Pincher demonstrating not for the first time his distance from the real world most of us live in. But then a man who doesn't know when a party is a party is unlikely to have a grasp on when a grope is a grope. The resignations of the chancellor and health secretary, followed by a slew of junior resignations would have left most prime ministers considering their position. But it seems that all Johnson cares about is his own survival. After Health Secretary Sajid Javid and ex-Chancellor Rishi Sunak quit within ...
As we have previously advised, the City Council is working on a possible project that, subject to funding support from Sustrans, the walking and cycling charity, would result in a new Magdalen Green footbridge across the rail line to Riverside - one that is suitable for wheelchair users or cyclists. We recently asked for a further update from the City Council engineer who is working on this project and he advises : "Sustrans has asked us for additional supporting information in the form of a widened consultation, something that wasn't feasible during Covid restrictions, as well as refreshed construction costs ...
