A 2022 study analysing 30 years of data from 116,221 adults found that those who did 150–300 minutes of moderate physical activity each week had a 20–21% lower risk of all-cause mortality during the study period than those with almost no moderate activity

I don't think political commentators - let alone ordinary voters - have begun to understand the implications of leaving the ECHR. It will allow a government with a Commons majority to literally do whatever it wants. We are just over three years from the nationalist right having that power.

Trump is seeking to undermine British and European democracy and anyone who takes the money and does his bidding should be called out fir what they are
Remember the controversy when Obama was accused of intervening in UK politics? This is the current US government openly seeking to undermine liberal democracy in Europe.

I'm Reading the Epstein Papers - gripping for any of us who had contact with the Maxwells and the comms industry in the old days. There's a great story about Kevin and Ghislaine, Cable and Wireless, Alcatel and some Russians, which should interest the Mirror Group Pensioners' lawyers.

Most of our media is studiously ignoring the Epstein links to Brexit, Farage and far right populism. Farage is being touted for No.10. He wants an even more extreme Brexit. A race to the bottom to sell us out to this global network of oligarch crooks.
Why TF isn’t he being investigated and stopped?

Mandelson's firm, General Counsel, covered-up Mandelson's relationship with Epstein.

Here's Global Counsel's CEO and co-founder, preparing to tell the press that Mandelson barely knew Jeffrey Epstein.

Who did he check that line with?

Jeffrey Epstein.

some seem to have forgotten Nigel Farage admitting before Brexit that Britain becoming poorer was a reasonable price for leaving the EU
