Sharks absolutely get cancer, and people claiming otherwise are pseudoscientific grifters preying on the desperate.
Even if sharks did not get cancer, eating shark would not cure your cancer any more than eating LeBron James would make you better at basketball.

Perfect thread
It's not confused and it's not hapless. They got what they wanted and got the center-right to establish it as the new common m normal. Then, consistent with the behaviour of all right wing racists for the last century, they refused to take yes for an answer and upped their demands.
More confusion from the hapless Philp/Lam team
“It is now our formal announced policy to restrict benefits to anyone who is not a British citizen. That is policy.".
Obviously, that would mean tearing up the Conservatives' own Brexit deal with the EU.

My favourite Barry Cryer story is his account of Nicholas Parsons asking Ross Noble who his favourite comedian was. "Richard Pryor" Noble replied, "Genius! So sad he set himself on fire while freebasing crack cocaine".
Parsons, visibly upset, asked Barry later: "did you hear about Richard Briers?"

Sometimes you get high and start waxing idiotic about how The Simpsons is about the journey from Judaism ("Abraham" Simpson) to Hellenism ("Homer" Simpson) and then finally to Christianity ("Bartholomew" Simpson) and then someone tells you to shut the fuck up, and they’re right to do so.
