Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

This is worth a read. As noted, the large rises in people being diagnosed with ADHD, Autism etc are fuelling conspiracists: 'something must be "damaging" our kids'...

No, the prevalence of symptoms in populations is stable over time. It's just being recognised now.

Help protect Ukraine and its people from this never-ending terror:

Reform UK campaigned during the local elections on a platform of them being the solution. Now reality has hit its becoming clear they had no idea…

A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

After Marcelo Gomes da Silva was arrested by ICE on his way to volleyball practice in Milford, he made a promise to the men he shared a cell with: He’d be a voice for immigrants unfairly detained.

He's one of Boston Globe Magazine’s Bostonians of the Year.

Every detail about this story is absolutely insane but even in its broadest sense it is wild that a guy known for collaborating with white nationalists, promoting Pizzagate, spreading foreign state disinformation -- the list goes on and on -- is acting as a henchman for Pentagon officials.
We discovered a Goodreads page linked to the email address of a top Pentagon official featuring pornographic books about “Asian wife sharing.”

The story gets wilder from there.
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

I welcome the decision of the Council on our proposal to continue the immobilisation of Russian Sovereign Assets.

We are sending a strong signal to Russia that as long as this brutal war of aggression continues, Russia’s costs will continue to rise.

Another defection from the Tories to Reform U.K. Ltd

We’re now up to 22 ex-Tory MPs joining reform.

Reform really is becoming just the Turquoise Tories.

Booted out by voters in GE 2024, they think they can slide back in under Reform U.K. 🤷‍♂️
