Genetically engineered T-cells are on a mission to obliterate cancer cells. A breakthrough in cancer treatment that could change lives forever.

Holy. Shit. This is Reid Wiseman's video he took with his iPhone while at the moon 🌙

mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.

In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.

This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

Did you know that Westminster doesn't permit the Scottish Government any power over Broadcasting, Constitution, Defence & Security, Employment, Energy, Economic & Monetary Policy, Foreign Policy, Immigration, Telecoms or Trade & Industry? Independence would give us control of all of it.

Did you know that Westminster controls 74% of Scotland's revenue, 37% of its spending, and tightly limits Scotland's ability to borrow? Imagine what we could achieve if we controlled all of it as normal countries do.

Now watch as unionist campaigns, mostly funded by deep pockets of their party head offices in England, wind up criticism of ScotGov by attacking things that are actually controlled by *Westminster*. They are counting on your ignorance about what's devolved and what isn't. Don't let them fool you.

Similarly, historians will retch at Zelensky’s treatment in the Oval Office & beyond. We all moved on to the next abomination without even stopping for sandwiches…

Roman Oleksiv who was severely injured in the russian missile attack on Vinnytsia downtown in 2022 took part in the Boston marathon. He ran 5km along with his dad in order to raise funds for the Unbroken medical center. A truly unbreakable boy.

It’s a mark of how completely normalised the corruption & depravity have become that we barely bat an eyelid at the thought of two *property developers*, one Trump’s nepo baby son-in-law, being sent to represent the USA in peace negotiations with Iran. Sometimes it all hits you afresh.

The Druzhba oil pipeline will resume operations by the end of April — Ukraine expects reciprocal steps from Budapest, specifically the release of a €90 billion EU loan, — Zelenskyy

We love the library!

It’s not that these people still exist. That’s just biology. It’s that they are still being paid to shit in their own hands & start clapping.

This makes the scale of Rayner's alleged error - for which Reform hauled her over the coals - look like monopoly money

President Stubb:

“I would prefer in the long run to see Ukraine in NATO. You know, I know for political reasons some people have problems with that. But let's think about it really serious. The Russian threat is not going away. So what then gives us comfort? In my mind, it's Ukraine.”

A block of 8 flats (probably a 50s or 60s council block) that have had an additional storey with pitch roof added. The white balcony walls have had holes added covered by black railings, in a nautical style

Another angle is the extra storey with pitched roof on the block of flats

Really love the updates to this block of flats. An extra storey on top (with a pitched roof 😍) and very nice curved railings breaking up the balcony walls

We are within touching distance of an SNP majority and securing a referendum on independence, and the power is in your hands.

Don’t sit this opportunity out. Make sure you are registered to vote - the deadline is midnight tomorrow.

Labour blasted as leaflet falsely claims Scottish NHS 'no longer free' SCOTTISH Labour have been accused of “spreading lies about Scotland’s NHS” after an election leaflet said the healthcare service is “no…

Once again Labour resorts to fabrication in their election leaflets for Scotland. Do the folk back at Labour HQ who create and distribute these things think no one here will notice or care?

January 6 was a violent assault on our democracy, and those responsible must be held accountable.

Erasing these convictions undermines the rule of law and disrespects the law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line defending the Capitol.

"A [Russian] missile hit and killed my son in that room," - Ihor, dad of 11-year-old Maksym, victim of a Russian strike.

Russia killed Maksym and three more people in Kyiv today, and injured 62 more.

Deepest condolences.

I really hope tomorrow’s cocktail isn’t …

If that is true then someone somewhere is in deep xxxx

Essential problem with Scottish Labour is that - for reasons that have had precisely zero to do with them - at every stage that they've got to the vital stage where an opposition starts to ask itself serious questions they've been bailed out by events.

"The country's had enough of chaos!"

Wes Streeting rules out Scottish independence, telling @lewisgoodall.com that there will be no fresh referendum even if the SNP get a majority.

@LBC tweets on X: "The country has had enough of chaos!" Wes Streeting rules out Scottish independence, telling Lewis Goodall that there will be no fresh referendum even if the SNP get a majority. Headline: Wes Streeting rules out Scottish independence

"The country" should be allowed to decide that all by itself.

We asked Mr Tice for comment.

It would be nice if politicians responded to reports like this with something like: that looks interesting; I'll look into it, and thanks for bringing it to my attention.

But instead we got the usual deflection:

The EU is dead if they don't find a way to change decision-making from unanimity to a qualified majority. Even if Orban loses, russia will soon buy a new little helper among the European leaders. The problem is far deeper than Orban.

So the US–Iran talks failed. Why? The world's best negotiators were involved.

Why didn't they give it their best shot — handing over Florida to Iran? Shouldn't be a big deal — the same people insisted just a few days ago that any land is "just a few square kilometers".

Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.

Chessmen at NMS National Museums Scotland - National Museums Scotland

195 years ago, on the 11th of April 1831, the Lewis chessmen were first exhibited at a meeting of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland shortly after being rediscovered. The pieces wee made between 1150 and 1200 and commonly believed to have been made in Norway. #otd #history 🗃️
