‘Oscar of science’ awarded to team behind gene therapy that restores lost vision Married couple Jean Bennett and Albert Maguire developed Luxturna, which helped a patient see their child’s face for the first time

“We were in a golden age of biomedical science... Now there are attacks on academic institutions... disassembling scientific infrastructure that was created over many years. I’m at a total loss to explain why people in leadership would want to do this.”

On a serious note, why would anyone like Iran for example, trust Trump in any deal he makes. He will simply renege on it on a whim. Unhinged, unstable, unfit for power in any way.

Tell Trump we've got all the McDonald's recipes in the UK now, as naff as they are, and we don't want his trade deal. 🤔

Ardderddog.

Better than Orban of course, and definitely want him to win, but sadly still quite right wing.

‘They will not get my vote this year’: Birmingham focus group shows shift from Labour support Previous Labour voters in Yardley discuss issues including cost of living, public services and the Iran war

This is not good news for Labour though the seeing lack of 'political' knowledge amongst all of them is an even bigger cause for concern for all.

I think the issue is more the leader in the case of the US, as you allude, rather than their military strength, tho' the US didn't do proper analysis on Iran. The UK and France actually achieved their military aims in Suez quickly. Different times of course. But political power ultimately counts.

But only if the US had no interest...

Let's hope so in many ways.

There you have it folks. Orban is one of Putin's puppets, U.S. taxpayers are paying for Vice President Vance to campaign for Victor Orban. The Hungarian leader who promised to offer assistance to Putin and he was at Putin’s service!! 👇👇

One possible way of looking at it, but she never espoused that.

Complete levels of delusion. You can see how she advised Trump. 😂

So a former Trump adviser is on #r4today telling us that Iran controlling the operation of the previously pre-war open Strait of Hormuz for money is a victory for the US.😂😂

Absolutely. I was just thinking the same. He spouted complete nonsense in that last interview.

Iran ceasefire deal a partial win for Trump - but at a high cost The path to the two-week ceasefire with Iran may have fundamentally altered the way the rest of the world views the US.

A dubious take? In the long term, however, the US has lost a lot as a result of this war against Iran. Trump has undoubtedly impoverished and diminished its standing and probably influence in the world. Not quite their Suez moment as they are too powerful.

Best butter in the world is Welsh Salted Butter. Try Sir Gar.

Bit late for that I suspect...

Look after yourself and others. Dangerous times in your country and for the world at large.

Trump warns Iran ‘a whole civilization will die tonight’ as strikes deadline looms The United Nations says ‘acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group’ meet the legal definition of genocide

As I said a couple of days, someone with sense and decency in the judiciary or military needs to arrest and remove Trump now as the US checks and balances system has failed. Call it a coup if you want. The time has well passed for such arguments.

Your unhinged President started it led by and with Netanyahu. Not our war. We should be nowhere near you with the deranged idiot you elected.

All for oil, power, and to keep the full Epstein files from public view.

You're a bunch of dangerous clowns. Glory, my arse. The guy is unhinged and supported by ill educated morons.

I'm really struggling to accept this is actually real. Makes Lewis Carroll's tales look normal in comparison.

Putin told him when he briefed him on his role. #krasnov
