    Why is Cancer so difficult to treat?

    Govt position on advertising https://www.gov.uk/guidance/advertise-your-medicines There are very strict rules on what you can claim in promotion even to medical professionals - basically you can't claim anything that the medicine is not already approved for. Obviously, none of the snake oil...

    Why is Cancer so difficult to treat?

    Depressing level of bullshit posted and liked on the thread. Anyway, reality is that cancer is a huge variety of conditions, not one, and we've actually made very good progress against many types eg breast cancer : A couple of posters were querying why biopsies (samples) of tumours are taken...

    Russian invasion of Ukraine

    Hopefully a sign of wider rifts in the Russian leadership.

    President Trump

    Infantino has invented a FIFA Peace Prize to rival the Nobel. To be awarded in Washington DC. No prize, however, for guessing the winner! I'm not making this up. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/2025/11/05/infantino-fifa-peace-prize-award-world-cup-draw/87096377007/

    Russian invasion of Ukraine

    BBC coverage has been very consistent with other reputable media outlets? Certainly not an outlier. What we get on here is, obviously, biased towards Ukraine, who pretty much all the commentators (including me) strongly support. What I think you could criticise isn't so much the BBC as the...

    I'm probably just a snowflake, but I do find it quite incredible to be accused of spreading disinformation for posting an ONS analysis of knife crime. The other thread was full of people making assertions about levels of knife crime going through the roof without any evidence. So... FWIW, my...

    President Trump

    Oh, they'll definitely happen. Dictators love an election, just not one they can't set the result of in advance.

    Please link to said disinformation. I've posted nothing except from the ONS!

    Thank you, that wasn't too difficult, was it? When was stop and search ended?

    OK, you clearly don't have any source for your claim. I'll ignore it.

    You made the claim. Show the evidence.

    I couldn't find any such figures. It's your assertion. Can you provide a source?

    Could you give a source for your claim - a quick google turned up only far more modest impacts eg https://www.fightingknifecrime.london/report/how-stop-and-search-is-used

    President Trump

    He will corrupt them in various ways. This is already underway; "redistricting" (aka gerrymandering), troops on the streets in democratic areas, electoral board membership nobbling, blackmail of the oligarchs who own the information environment etc etc

    Huntingdon Train Incident - Reports of multiple stabbings

    Please explain why there is. All data requires analysis to understand a trend. That analysis is done with statistics. For example. The temperature of the surface of the earth has risen over recent years. That's a fact, which we know through statistics. Likewise, nothing can be...

    Huntingdon Train Incident - Reports of multiple stabbings

    I merely posted some facts. I've no opinion on your personal experience - how could I. It's entirely consistent for one individual to have a different experience to the wider reality. It's also possible, likely even, that our personal experience is not actually a reliable indicator of...
