If you had trusted the settled science of the day, here is how it would have gone.

1890s: you dose the baby with Bayer's new cough syrup, the non-addictive alternative to morphine, marketed for children. It was heroin. They named it after the German for heroic.

1900s: you rub calomel teething powder on your infant's gums. It is a mercury compound, and it leaves a generation with pink disease. Swollen, peeling hands and feet, screaming for months, and some of them died.

1910s: you cook in Crisco, launched by a soap and candle company, because cottonseed oil is modern and lard is what your mother used. The process that made it solid produced trans fat, banned outright a century later.

1920s: you drink Radithor, certified radioactive water, on prescription. Eben Byers took fourteen hundred bottles for his vitality. His jaw was removed in pieces and he was buried in a lead coffin.

1930s: a chemist dissolves a new sulfa drug in diethylene glycol, which is antifreeze. It kills 107 people, mostly children, and only then does America give the FDA power to demand safety testing.

1940s: your doctor lights a Camel in the surgery. More doctors smoke them than any other brand, and the advert runs in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which sold him the page.

1950s: DDT is sprayed over your kitchen, your garden and your children at school. The man who found its insecticidal properties has already been given a Nobel Prize.

1960s: your wife takes thalidomide for morning sickness because it is remarkably safe. More than ten thousand children are born with missing and shortened limbs.

1970s: the country puts down the butter and picks up the margarine, on the instruction of the American Heart Association. The fat everybody switched to was banned in 2015 as unsafe at any level.

1980s: the fat comes out of everything and sugar goes back in to make it edible. Obesity begins a climb it has never come off.

1990s: your father is prescribed OxyContin, because fewer than one per cent get addicted. The company later pleads guilty to criminal misbranding, and the overdose count runs into hundreds of thousands.

2000s: you take Vioxx for your knee. It is pulled in 2004, and the FDA's own safety officer estimates tens of thousands of excess heart attacks.

Not one of those was fringe. Every one had a professional body, a literature and a man in a white coat standing behind it.

Nobody who followed that advice was stupid. They were obedient, to the most qualified people available.

Settled is a word about money. It means the questions stopped being funded, so they stopped being asked.

So which of today's instructions will your grandchildren read out in disbelief.

The oil washed in hexane and built into every cell you own. The statin that blocks the pathway making your hormones, to prevent one heart attack per hundred people. The injection where a third of the loss is muscle. The infant formula built out of vegetable oil.

All settled. None of it funded to be otherwise.

@ArchRose90 It’s a simple way for them to continue the grift.

For the virtuous, a donation is an easy way to maintain (the delusion of) moral superiority

@SBarrettBar Lady Nugget is so sure of her position she turns replies off 🤔

@afneil Landed in Alicante yesterday - facial recognition & finger print checks were very easy with no queues. Same at e-gates. Luggage was also very quick. Faster and easier than when we land back in the UK!

@piersmorgan A pathological liar. An unprincipled man without an ounce of patriotism.
Unsurprising the first time he shows emotion is when it affects him personally!

[JD Vance @JDVance]

Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it.

Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse.

It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul.

@GBPolitcs Yay: vote Labour

@piersmorgan Options…insanely strong bench

[Jason Matthews @NakedEyeUK]

@DailyMail Not sure who I despise more at this point? The scum that committed this vile act, or the activist judges who effectively legitimise it. Utter filth.

[Jason Matthews @NakedEyeUK]

@ZiaYusufUK A spectacular own goal. They never learn.

@EssexPR @thecarolemalone Needs to be settled in the ring
Sugar Ray Brooks vs Fatty Stadlen 🥊

@Keir_Starmer We are.
And we've had more than our fill of you.
Fuck off.

[Jason Matthews @NakedEyeUK]

@darrenpjones @Keir_Starmer The world salad of arrogance, twinned with the inability to listen or learn from mistakes

The electorate are firmly rejecting labour’s leadership, & labour policy. Your thought out conclusion is that this means they want more stuff they dislike, delivered faster 🤡

@LeGrove Ben White was outstanding. Back to his best.

@frankbrunoboxer Great April fools, but…. You’d sell out and deserve way more money. Frank, you’re an icon and loved by 🇬🇧.
Prefer you to stay retired and healthy over a payday tho!

@DreyfusJames @MichelleDewbs Spends so long on his monotonous monologues then interrupts others as if he runs the show. Great to see Michelle doesn’t stand for his nonsense
