How are Labour doing after their first 12 months

Corbyn and Sultana were never in the race, I don't know how old this Sultana is and I can't be arsed to look, but from where I'm sitting it's like Corbyn has got himself a yapping chihuahua that he's not taught the sit command to yet. She'll learn.

Yeah I know, the danger is they will split the left leaning vote though.

Like Windy says, we'll probably end up with some kind of coalition Govt next time.

As long as it isn't a Reform/Tory/DUP nightmare then I'll settle for a centrist coalition

They won't split any vote. I'd already said there would be a coalition.

Beth Rigby SKY journalist said she has been speaking to Ed Davey, and it's like Nigel Farage is living rent free in his head. <laugh>

Sounds like not606 fighting talk that does.

Anyone any idea why Trump is spouting this stuff about Tylenol (paracetamol). I believe it's owned by Johnson & Johnson now, which is an American company, so he's damaging his own country brand. They earlier in the year said they were going to spend $55bn on factories in the states, 4 new plants.

Edit: Oh the actual owning company is Kenvue, although Independent was spun off from Johnson & Johnson, presumbably due to past *scandals dating back to 1982 (*subjective on my part). Still american though.

The humanoid robots is a parody of course. But the UN plan is to maintain the working population due to an aging population, who all require pensions, in an overall trend of lower birth rates.

So it's a choice, smaller work force, less productivity and higher taxes (to pay for pensions) or you encourage immigration to fill the void, maintain productivity, put more money into the exchequer via taxes, and keep the tax burden down.

America specifically is absolutely mental about autism and its varying causes, Trump believes that certain medicines give you autism, which is scientifically flawed for many reasons.

It's very much related to the "vaccines give you autism" crowd despite that being thoroughly disproven.

The core issue here is very very old men don't understand much about the modern world but also happen to control the modern world, so say ridiculous **** without any pushback whatsoever.

Like Putin and Xi talking utter nonsense regard organ transplants, it was pseudoscience mumbo-jumbo, but they are powerful, so people listen to it.

All very odd behaviour by him from a financial perspective, can be very damaging this sort of nonsense - especially as a fair few Americans are sucked in by this type of ****. Paracetamol has to be by far the biggest selling drug world wide. I can't make it make any sense to my brain, feel like I'm missing something here.
