Difference between ‘refugee’, ‘asylum seeker’, ‘immigrant’ & ‘migrant’👇🏽
There’s a reason why right wing press uses ‘migrants’ most frequently. Because they mean all of the above. They’re not just talking about the asylum seekers.

About a sixth of the public endorse very extreme views on making legal/settled migrants leave & then follow up on the specifics. (This overlaps with the 8% who say they support violence in protests & liked the riots, so it should be challenged, not indulged)

7-8% express support for violence (2% very strongly). This pro-violence segment was 21% of the Reform vote (two-thirds were against violence) and 4% of everyone else.

The evolution of cancer and ageing: a history of constraint
Nature Reviews Cancer, Published online: 26 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41568-025-00861-4In this Perspective, de Magalhães explores the evolutionary relationship between cancer and ageing, proposing that the need to minimize cancer risk early in life may contribute to tissue degeneration later on, representing a trade-off that constrains the evolution of longer lifespans.
