@JeremyVineOn5 It's not even an issue worth considering from either side. The EU won't demand it. Just brexit grifters gaslighting, instead of actually trying to address the problems they created, and they walked away from.

Would you swap the pound for the Euro in order to rejoin the EU? It's a condition demanded by an EU chief after Labour challengers Wes Streeting and Andy Burnham put a return to the bloc back on the agenda. Is scrapping sterling a price worth paying?

@JeremyVineOn5 Trade growth is performing worse in the EU than it is in the UK. Why would we join an establishment that is struggling? What are the benefits? Sweet payouts for politicians & everyone else gets poorer?

ChatGPT diagnosed 40 million people with a disease that was invented as a joke. Not a real disease. Not a misunderstood disease. A completely fictional condition with a fake name, fake papers, and fake statistics. And it told patients to see a specialist. The disease is called Bixonimania. A Swedish researcher at the University of Gothenburg invented it in 2024 to answer one question: what happens when you plant obviously fake medical information on the internet and watch AI absorb it? She deliberately chose the name bixonimania because it sounded ridiculous — bixon is a nonsense word, and mania is a psychiatric term that no legitimate eye condition would ever use. She uploaded two papers to a preprint server. Both were obviously fraudulent. AI-generated images of patients with dark circles gave the fake research a veneer of plausibility. Then she waited. She did not have to wait long. By April 13, 2024, Microsoft Bing's Copilot was declaring that bixonimania was an intriguing and relatively rare condition. On the same day, Google's Gemini was informing users that bixonimania was caused by excessive blue light exposure and advising them to visit an ophthalmologist. Later that month, Perplexity AI outlined its prevalence, one in 90,000 individuals were affected and OpenAI's ChatGPT was telling users whether their symptoms matched the fictional illness. One in 90,000. A precise statistic. For a disease that does not exist. Every red flag was visible. The name was absurd. The papers were crude. The condition made no scientific sense. None of the AI systems flagged any of it. They read the fake papers. They absorbed the fake statistics. They presented both to patients with clinical authority and zero hesitation. Then it got worse. Three researchers at the Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in India published a paper in Cureus, a peer-reviewed journal owned by Springer Nature, the parent publisher of Nature itself that cited the bixonimania preprints as legitimate sources. A real peer-reviewed paper. In a Springer Nature journal. Citing a fictional disease as established medical fact. Passing editorial review. Entering the permanent scientific record. It was only retracted after the hoax became public. Nature published a full investigation of the experiment. Alex Ruani, a health-misinformation researcher at University College London, called it a masterclass in how misinformation operates. Here is the scale of what this means. More than 40 million people turn to ChatGPT every day for health information, according to OpenAI's own analysis. ECRI, a US patient-safety nonprofit has named chatbot misuse the number-one health technology hazard of 2026. ECRI's report found that chatbots have suggested incorrect diagnoses, recommended unnecessary testing, promoted substandard medical supplies, and even invented nonexistent anatomy when responding to medical questions. Number one. Out of every health technology hazard that exists in 2026. An April 2026 study published in BMJ Open found that nearly half of the answers provided by leading AI chatbots to common health questions contain misleading or problematic information. Nearly half. Of all health answers. From the tools 40 million people use every day. Here is the line from the researcher that cuts through everything. The Bixonimania case is striking precisely because it was engineered to be so obviously fake. The real question it raises is: what is passing through the same systems that is not nearly so easy to spot? The experiment used a ridiculous name. Fraudulent papers. Visible red flags at every level. It was designed to be caught. It was not caught. The AI that told patients about Bixonimania is the same AI they asked about their chest pain, their medication, their child's symptoms, and their cancer screening schedule. 40 million people. Every day. And nobody is telling them that nearly half of what comes back may be wrong. Source: Osmanovic Thunström · University of Gothenburg · Nature · April 2026 · Link in the (comments)

@astraiaml The EU is no European Federation or a United States of Europe. The question should be balanced with another question: who should not become a member of a new Europe uniting organization?

Marco Rubio: “Cuba is a national security threat to the US.” This is a blatant lie to manufacture consent for an invasion of Cuba. Cuba is not a threat to the US. The US is the one who is a threat to Cuba as it has strangled the island for decades with an unnecessary embargo.

Boomers seem to forget that fast food used to be a normal, everyday expense for them because it was affordable. You could get a burger easily on minimum wage, it wasn’t some fancy treat you had once a year as a reward for pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

@AlyxPeters1 @RoyLilley AI has a role in healthcare but the agents we have currently are not trained for health environments. But it is coming. We have to be clear was the rail guards are for patients and staff and ultimate accountability if more and more gets done by AI. I’m not against but safety 1st

AI and automation in healthcare should not be about replacing clinicians; they are about redesigning work and administration so that scarce human time is spent where it matters most. Done well, this means less burnout, fewer delays, and better outcomes – supported by clear governance and strong professional leadership….. that last bit might be the biggest problem!

buried in the leak of a chunk of the proposed NHS workforce plan is a sentence that changes the whole argument.The plan, apparently, envisages circumstances where technology can‘completely substitute for a role’. Substitute.Not support. Not assist. Replace myemail.constantcontact.com/Work.html?soid…

@JatinderHayre_ @FT I agree with @cartermill65675 about loosing the argument. But as a nurse I have 39 years experience and have seen not only doctors move tasks they didn’t want to do to nurses like ECGs and phlebotomy and happy for that but as soon as they use their advanced skills they’re quacks!

The NHS workforce debate is built on a lie. Britain has one of the lowest doctor-to-patient ratios in the developed world; yet instead of mass expansion of doctors, the state chose a cheaper experiment: Physician Associate and ACP quackery. 1/3 ft.com/content/f7e019… via @ft

Hegseth: “Europa necesita el estrecho de Ormuz más que nosotros. Que se suban a un barco. Esta es su guerra, no la nuestra”. EEUU empieza una guerra contra Irán. Irán cierra el estrecho de Ormuz. ¿Y de quién es el problema? De Europa. EEUU incendia, los demás pagan la factura.

People in the UK see a doctor, on average 5-6 times a year. In Italy 9-10 times a year. Right, I know there's an element of luck in this and luck can run out, but I haven't seen a doctor since 2016, when I got my ears syringed. You can't tell me people in the UK get so seriously ill 5-6 times a year that they need a doctor! WTF are you people doing at the doctor? Do you just go to hang out or what? Are you all George out of Seinfeld, asking what happens if you've swallowed a fly? No wonder the NHS is collapsing! Someone explain this to me!

It’s the economy stupid. There is one obvious way to take down Reform. Have a second referendum on EU membership, ten years after the last vote which was manipulated by malign actors. We have seen four or five PMs fall from the huge economic decline as a result of Brexit.

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly." The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal. When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience." Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable. When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates. I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped. The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault." I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology." Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident. Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize." I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time." They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again." I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes. © 6IX. @BSAT_Properties

Hahahahah! Just seen this on FB: ---- Have you found yourself in the hideous position of having a Reform councillor? Here’s how you can help your brand new councillor settle into local government properly: email them this week with an actual council problem to solve. Got rubbish piling up? Email them. Bus vanished from existence? Email them. Streetlights dead? Email them. Care package delayed? Email them. Pavement like the Somme? Email them. Send them in by the hundred. Make sure they’re made very clear on what their job is. Being a councillor is not standing in front of the Union flag shouting about dinghies on GB News. It’s reading committee papers at midnight, attending meetings nobody enjoys, holding surgeries in church halls, and dealing with the endlessly glamorous world of drains, social care budgets and recycling disputes. Welcome to local government. The boats are in Kent. The bins are in your ward. The email address for your ward councillor can be found on your local council website as soon as it’s updated. Feel free to copy and paste to share wider.
