Scientists Discover Way To Reverse Chemical Process Linked With Alzheimer’s Disease By watching Alzheimer’s-related protein clumping unfold second by second, researchers have uncovered new clues about the role of metal ions.

This amazing scientific advance may one day lead to either more effective treatments or dare I say perhaps a cure.
This is why it is vitally important to fund basic scientific research.

The Hinkley Point C nuclear power station is set to cost Β£49 Billion, which is more than Scotland’s annual block grant from Westminster.

Nuclear power is an immensely costly white elephant - don’t let Labour force their nuclear obsession on renewables rich Scotland.

Home Office refuses to exempt exceptional students from tough immigration rules

Exclusive: Foreign secretary Yvette Cooper concerned about student visa ban on female Chevening scholars from volatile countries such as Afghanistan

The Home Office rejected an appeal from the foreign secretary, Yvette Cooper, that would have protected outstanding students in some of the world's most dangerous countries from changes to the UK's immigration system, the Guardian understands.

That Starmer keeps Mahmood in post shows this is not just the actions of an inhumane Home Secretary, but a deeper rooted ideology of hostility and xenophobia within this government. No-one benefits from blocking Chevening scholars. This is cruelty for sake of it.

Every Labour MP supposedly representing a Scottish seat is silent about this. Not one Labour MP has stood up for Scotland’s democratically enacted legal Scottish Government.
Why? Because their priority is always London rule, always England First, never Scotland’s interests.

Scotland has the lowest child poverty rate in the UK, and 90,000 fewer children live in poverty thanks to our policies.

But decisions at Westminster have too often held us back.

I want to fully eradicate child poverty, and Scotland should have the full powers to do it.

The Duchy of Lancaster collects the assets of people who die without a will in the North-West of England. This is how King Charles ended up owning the huge Wigan illegal waste dump he refuses to clean up. There is a word for describing this: feudalism.

Ireland, a small, anglophone country, is an easy place to target, at least for attention.

The flipside is it is a small country, with a very established democratic system and media freedom

In particular - and this will sound like a joke - but probably every1 knows some1 who knows Edwin Edogbo

He is a Russian oligarch like most of his poisonous regime. I don’t hold out any hope of elections in Hungary. This should concern the EU, but they are too weak to challenge his regime.
