This seems pretty significant
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

I’m not drinking during the week because I have been preparing for a race this Sunday and this makes it harder than it might have been.
And what do you drink with that I hear you say? Why, a local, organic wine from the mountain department of Isère, made by an enthusiastic young vigneron, without intrants, in very small quantities, from indigenous grape varieties.

Varoufakis is a shithead.
What is this high school debate shit?
Everyone wants peace!
Adults just realize that any peace which lasts beyond a Russian re-arming / recruitment cycle has to be on terms that don't reward Russia's initial invasion with land and legitimacy, and which meaningfully deter future aggression.

Better still, put £10K for each kid in an index tracker and spend £27K a year on luxuries.
My free advice to this couple? Instead of paying £47k a year in school fees and scraping by, stick 15k a year in each kid's bank account so that they each have around £100k at age 18 to spend on a house, business or uni. You then have £17k/year leftover to spend on luxuries. Better life all round

This is it. Time to get off the US drug and stand together as Europeans.
There we go - now we have higher ranking US officials campaigning publicly against the EU, European governments and the rule of law.
Here an example of pretending only diplomatic passport gives her the freedom to criticise an MEP.

Probably best for all parties that the Saudi League offers say £80m to end this.

Whispers: I went to the one in Portsmouth about 13 years ago and it was “fine” and would go again …
Perplexed at this. The mid-market restaurant is in a bad way, and frankly what has changed to make Jamie’s Italian a better proposition than it was six years ago?

Soul-sucking shitbag imagines everyone in the provinces is prejudiced and dons an overcoat of ambitious loathing. Also do fuck off with the "I'm just a horny handed peasant" - we've got your academic CV.
