Brexit, for once some facts.

Hope they have it, because that's quoted as needed:

Major breakthrough on nuclear fusion energy

A lab in Oxfordshire takes a big step towards harnessing the energy source of the stars.

I think you must be entirely missing the difficulty of the concept of heat having a temperature.

I think you must be entirely missing the difficulty of the concept of heat having a temperature.

It's probably poorly translated, into Ingrish, like a lot of wesbites based in Asia. It looks like an attempt at making a (small) fully functioning fusion power station, as opposed to just a flash in a big pan.

Exactly the same on The Japan Times, but you have to disable CSS to bypass the paywall to see it - it's a heat exchanger:

Japan venture to build country's first nuclear fusion power plant

Kyoto Fusioneering Ltd., a startup based in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, plans to start operations at the nuclear fusion plant in the next five years.

Why would the Andrew Windsor pay a vast some of money to a lady he’d never met? It’s mental.

He definitely needs to do another News Night gig

Please can we have an end to coverage of Mr Windsor? At least, turn it down to small pieces if and when something of significance occurs.

He's come out of this extremely well and is far better off than before it occurred.

All he's actually done is both deny strongly an accusation, but having been made aware of the woman's charity helping those who actually are victims of the alleged act, he's made a generous donation to the charity out of sympathy for the victims.

The personal effect upon him of the allegation is that he continues to receive his generous income as the Queen's son but no longer has to perform lots of tiresome royal duties throughout every year.

What's not to like?

Curiouser and curiouser. Virginia Giuffre isn't allowed to speak about it until after the queen's jubilee

Virginia Giuffre 'banned from discussing claims until after Jubilee'

It has reportedly been agreed that Miss Giuffre will not publicly tell her story until later in the year, so as not to add further damage to the royals as they commemorate 70 years on the throne.

So, Andy's handing a complete stranger 12 million squid for something that never happen and asking her not to mention this non event to avoid upsetting his mom.

Of course. His quarter million a year stipend is from his mum who gets the dosh from the Duchy of Lancaster, and he lives in a free royal home with Ferguson so won't want to lose those for life.

He's not short of capital anyway, he got 15 million from the sale of a previous home and his luxury Swiss chalet is up for sale for what he paid for it, 18 million.

The grand old Duke of York, he had 12 million quid. He gave it to someone he never met, for something he never did.

Agreed, it's very unfair to keep picking on him for some misbehaviour which isn't really his fault.

I blame the parents, gallivanting around when they should have been at home bringing up their children responsibly to be good citizens.

I think most readers would already have accepted that at the very least he behaved with extraordinary stupidity and selfishness. Which should be enough to leave him out of everything.

Family trait?

I could fairly have applied that description to both Prince Charles and Prince Harry at times.

Prince Philip was also a dab hand at behaving very inappropriately at times.

Perhaps he's the one to blame really. When he got his todger out the Queen should have remembered the old warning, "Beware of Greeks bearing gifts".

We should applaud him. He should become an ambassador for brexit Britain. With boris. Our proud heritage of hypocricy and, er, not taking responsibility for anything that cannot be explicitly verified should not be wasted.

And now cash for honours investigating Prince's Foundation.

Perhaps there is something in the "blood" argument?

Interestingly, the very medicine I take every day is suspected of being linked to cancer.
...
Likewise, there is a steady stream of people in panic as they find that ...

I'm going to make a few predictions (some of this has already started, but its all going to become far more widespread and obvious in the next months).

The rate of cancer incidence in the general public is 'mysteriously' going to increase. (they will at some point blame the lack of testing during the Covid lockdowns, but data analysis will eventually show that this is unlikely to explain all of the increase).

The media is going to start ramping up reports and articles on a myriad of (sometimes bizarre) situations that can cause heart attacks and heart damage in otherwise healthy people. Then we'll start to see the MSM actually reporting on said heart issues once we've been conditioned to expect them.

The same is going to happen with HIV/AIDS. There will be reports of a strange, unexplained increase (possibly blamed on a new 'variant' of HIV) in various places around the world. There will be a push for everyone (including in the UK) to get tested whether they are unwell or not ... it will be 'your duty as a conscientious citizen'.
Despite 40 years of attempts and failures to develop a 'cure' for HIV, all of a sudden, a number of new, novel 'vaccines' will be rolled out, possibly "based on successful technology developed when creating the Covid Vaccines".
And/or there may be some new drug that they will claim will work to suppress HIV as long as you take it regularly as a prophylactic.
The media will try to whip up panic in the public to make them test and/or vaccinate.


Lets watch this space and see what happens!
PS - I'l add an uncommon word here - supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Just so that it will be easy for me to do a search for that, so I can come back here, quote what I said and say "see ... I told you so back in Feb 2022..."
Or of course someone else can dig this up and say "See ... you were full of BS even back then... none of that came to pass ..."


Just need to remember that supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is the magic word LOL!

And that is obvious from where I live... The number of trucks on the road and the tradesmen vans with NI plates has not diminished. All evidence that the NI Protocol is working!.

Well... . Will it rest there or will that young Lady go to another location and start the same story again in 5 years time. ? There is a woman called Patricia Hervey , a Friend of Andrew ,who is claiming that the famous photograph is photoshopped.
