@andrewsparrowgdn.bsky.social An unmentioned benefit of the proposed increase in FSM should be a knock-on effect on School Pupil Premium funding (since it defines eligibility) since many school budgets are currently in deficit

Today is Retraction Day, when we observe the anniversary of the retraction (Feb. 2, 2010) of the fraudulent paper that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. 🧪#medsky

This is the front page of a fraudulent research article that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. The word "RETRACTED" is written across it in large red letters.

Wikipedia: On 28th February 1998, a fraudulent research paper by physician Andrew Wakefield and twelve coauthors, titled "Ileal-Lymphoid-Nodular Hyperplasia, Non-Specific Colitis, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder in Children", was published in the British medical journal The Lancet.[1] The paper falsely claimed causative links between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and colitis and between colitis and autism. The fraud involved data selection, data manipulation, and two undisclosed conflicts of interest.

Couldn't Jack Smith submit it instead to POTUS, receive a pardon for the action and then Biden could release the report with SCOTUS' absolute presidential immunity?

This is pretty funny.

If you're wondering why Prime Minister Justin Trudeau flew to Florida to meet with Donald Trump, it's because Canada doesn't allow convicted felons into the country.

Worked for William Hill in the late 1970s in University summer holidays - rich guys (celebrities, Lords and Ladies etc) phoning in bets on horses for thousands of £ which they mostly lost. Learnt the folly of gambling then so would highly recommend it!
