This is bad news. This is very bad news. The US government has stopped the funding of PubMed, the most comprehensive database of biomedical literature. Why would you do this? This database it literally a matter of life and death.

We were caught up in the protest. I worried for the safety of our family, our children, surrounded by people drunk at 1 pm, with blasphemous flags declaring Jesus is King. But the ray of light? 2 White women declaring “these idiots don’t even know what they are protesting about”

In London, hate will never win.

We urgently need leadership to help articulate the best of our country- not to let others to define it at its worst. The lack of a proper response to the racist riots last year, the silence now, the lack of a cohesion strategy - it isn’t good enough.

With falling numbers of parents getting their children vaccinated, and a resurgence of disease we had previously eradicated, it’s shockingly irresponsible for Farage to give a platform to these poisonous lies. He should apologise and sever all ties with this dangerous extremism.
