Andy Burnham looks like he might cancel the NHS England contract with Palantir, they also have one worth 2.5x as much with the MoD.
RT if you want them both out of the UK.
The fear around bacon and the other processed meats is one of the great triumphs of bad science.
Here's how the trick works. In the studies, processed meat rarely travels alone. It shows up alongside the white bun, the hash browns, the sugary drink, the crisps, the cigarette, the whole slovenly lifestyle. Then the meat gets handed the bill for the entire party.
And the nitrates everyone's so frightened of? Around 80% of the nitrate you eat comes from vegetables. Spinach, rocket and beetroot carry many times more than a rasher of bacon ever could. If nitrates really scared you, you'd be far more frightened of the salad than the fry-up.
Better still, stop swallowing your own spit. Your body actively concentrates nitrate in your saliva and drips it down your throat all day long. You produce more of the stuff yourself than the butcher ever added.
Bacon's whole crime was keeping bad company at breakfast.
The media have wanted to hear from me today on Shabir Ahmed’s release - a dozen calls so far - here are my thoughts
The solution is diplomacy, not legal I believe
The U.K. govt should try it
The victims should not have to suffer further
The most metabolically ill country on Earth has a control group living right inside it, and the results are deeply inconvenient.
The Amish eat butter, lard, eggs, meat, and raw milk straight from their own cows, by the bucket. They cook in animal fat. They eat the saturated fat the rest of us were told to fear for fifty years. Their obesity rate sits around 4%. The country around them is closing on 40%, four in ten adults. Ten times lower, on the diet that was supposed to be killing them.
They are not dropping from heart attacks at the rate the theory demands either. Their overall cancer rates run lower than the surrounding American population, despite skipping most of the screening that is meant to be saving everyone else.
Now, honesty, because it matters. The Amish are not low-carb. There are pies and bread and plenty of sugar on an Amish table. This is no clean carnivore case, and I will not pretend it is.
What it is, is a controlled experiment sitting in plain sight across Pennsylvania and Ohio. Same country. Same supermarkets down the road. The Amish simply opt out of two things: the ultra-processed food and the sitting still. Their men walk upward of 18,000 steps a day. They eat food their grandmothers would recognise, and they move like their lives depend on it, because for most of history they did.
The animal fat was never what made America sick. The seed oil, the sugar, the packet, and the sofa did that, and the Amish skipped all four. They ran the experiment by accident, by living in the same country as everyone else and politely declining to join in.
Breaking - Scientists have discovered a technology that turns plants into highly nutritious protein without the need for factories, synthetic chemicals, or seed oils.
One of the major reasons that Manchester and especially Liverpool have been transformed in the past 30 years was a huge amount of money from the EU.
Rejoining the European Union will actually help investment across the UK.
Every British person I know wants the end of Brexit and the UK to rejoin the European Union. Nothing wrong in correcting a mistake.
Fix it, the sooner, the better and put Brexit behind Britain.
Ladies and gentlemen I give you Nigel Farage - the only person in the UK to have benefited from Brexit - er in his case to the tune of £5million. Since 2020 the rest of you are £11,400 worse off than you would have been had we stayed in (based on OBR figs)
Brexit really was just an old codgers fantasy . Given that we will certainly now rejoin , why don’t Labour, the Lib Dems, and the Greens all get together and vote right now to rescind May’s extremely dodgy 2017 Article 50 Notification. Could be the fastest way to undo the damage.
Farage on #BBCBreakfast: “If Andy Burnham becomes PM we need a General Election, no mandate!”
Sally Nugent: “Do your MPs who defected from the Tories have a mandate?”
Watch the chancer’s face as his own logic gets rammed straight back down his throat. Pure gold.
This is the exact line every interviewer should use on him from now on.😂😂😂
RT if Sally Nugent deserves a medal 👇👇👇👇
🚨 Researchers from @LSEEcon estimate that post-Brexit trade barriers increased food prices by 12%, costing the average family around £400 between 2019 and 2023.
Brexit doesn’t just make imported food more expensive. It makes British food more expensive too.
British farmers rely on imported feed, fertiliser, packaging, machinery parts and fuel. Since Brexit, many of these inputs face extra paperwork, border friction and higher costs.
At the same time, UK farmers have lost access to parts of the support and market stability they once enjoyed, while facing greater competition from subsidised EU produce and cheaper imports under new trade deals.
The result is a double hit:
🚜 Higher costs for British producers.
🛒 Higher prices for British consumers.
Brexit promised to make food cheaper. But it has increased costs throughout the entire food chain.
More expensive to produce and more expensive to buy,
This is the Brexit food penalty.

We were robbed of our right to live, work, study, and love in 30 countries by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.
NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, dating back 2,000 years.The architecture is absolutely unreal from Roman walls, Norman castles,1350 built cathedral, City walls built in 13th century, kings imprisoned,hit by every war going, civil wars, Major role in the Industrial Revolution….WHAT A CITY!!
Brexiteers constantly try to dismiss polls showing a clear majority of voters want to rejoin the EU by saying they’ll change their minds when it becomes clear the UK would have to join the euro and Schengen. Tonight Michel Barnier makes clear our old opt outs would be reinstated
