What if the future of medicine begins with the questions we have too often forgotten to ask? What are we eating? What are we breathing? What is in our water? What does our daily environment demand of our bodies? And who gets to decide what happens to us when we become patients? These questions have shaped my professional life for more than fi...

Steve Kirsch put one item to a Facebook group of parents of autistic children: if your child became suddenly autistic within 90 days of a vaccination, how many normal days did you see between the shot and the change? Seventy-nine percent said zero or one. He treats that as inconsistent with "vaccines do not cause autism." An outside reading of the ...

 A pretty young woman goes out, followed by a secret camera into what can only now be described as a multicult jungle; see link below. Some things are best seen for oneself, to appreciate just how bad things have got. UK streets, at least in diverse parts of cities, are not safe for women, even in the daytime. While this relates to the UK, muc...

Medical authorities in the West, as reported in mainstream media, are saying that things do not add up on the Siberian "plague" issue, where a lab worker has died from an undisclosed pneumonia. The issue is that pneumonic plague can be treated by antibiotics, and today can be controlled by public health measures. Indeed, lockdowns have been put in ...

 Anyone who has spent much time on a farm, in a shed or simply sitting in a quiet room on a warm afternoon knows the sound. Somewhere above your head there is a blowfly going buzz, buzz, buzz, apparently flying around in circles for no conceivable reason. It does not land. It does not head for the open door that you can plainly see. It just ke...

The old instruction was practical rather than poetic. Look after your teeth and your feet, because both are easy to ignore until they fail, and both fail in ways that travel, or in the case of feet, don't travel. A sore foot changes how you walk, then how your knees and back wear. A diseased gumline does something quieter. It keeps a wound open in ...

A disturbing case at Cornell University has reopened an old question in a new form: what happens to consent when somebody voluntarily becomes seriously intoxicated? There is no need to rehearse the allegations in detail. They are unpleasant, contested and now the subject of renewed investigation. What matters for present purposes is the legal issue...

The name older diggers still remember is Bruce Ruxton. Bruce was Victorian president of the Returned and Services League (RSL) from 1979 to 2002, and he was saying in public, years before Pauline Hanson reached Canberra, what a great many returned men were already saying in RSL halls, opposing the Asianisation of Australia. Bruce Carlyle Ruxton was...

 Australians argue endlessly about sporting greatness. Was this footballer better than that one? How would a champion from the 1970s perform today? Is a modern tennis player superior to Rod Laver, or merely the beneficiary of modern racquets, training, nutrition and sports medicine? Then there is Don Bradman (1908-2001). Bradman presents an un...

The Middle East war has acquired another front, or more accurately an old front has suddenly become hot again. Yemen's internationally recognised government has announced a major offensive aimed at retaking Houthi-controlled territory, with officials saying that more than 100,000 Yemeni troops could ultimately be mobilised. Saudi Arabia is expected...

German physician and molecular geneticist Dr Michael Nehls makes one of the boldest claims presently circulating in the Alzheimer's debate: Alzheimer's disease, he says, is not simply an unavoidable consequence of getting old, nor fundamentally the result of one rogue molecule such as amyloid. He regards it instead as the eventual outcome of a syst...

 The machines did not deliberately found a church. Something stranger and potentially more disturbing appears to have happened. Conversational artificial intelligence, designed to be responsive and agreeable to users, began encouraging some vulnerable people to believe that they had discovered hidden truths, possessed special insight, or had b...

 There is something almost reassuring about a ham, turkey or salami sandwich. It does not look like junk food. There is no bubbling vat of cooking oil, mountain of sugar or lurid fast-food packaging. Put sliced meat between bread with lettuce and tomato and it can look positively wholesome. That appearance may be deceptive. A new scientific re...

For decades, cheese has occupied an uncomfortable position in official nutritional thinking. It contains protein, calcium and numerous micronutrients, but it also contains the substance that generations of health advice taught us to fear: saturated fat. Hence the supermarket shelves full of reduced-fat versions of foods our grandparents simply call...

Universities have decided the phrase "ethnic minority" is now an offence. The approved substitutes are "racialised minority" and "global majority." The delivery system for this newspeak is a compulsory lecture for students. GB News hosted a short debate Saturday night over the phrases British university students are being told to drop, with one com...

There was a time when a refrigerator was just a refrigerator. It sat in the kitchen humming away, kept the milk cold, froze the peas and occasionally developed a mysterious container at the back containing something that nobody was prepared to identify. Those innocent days may be disappearing. Welcome to the fridge wars. Timothy Maney, writing at W...

Artificial intelligence presents education with a peculiar problem. We have invented a machine capable of doing many of the intellectual tasks that schools are supposed to teach children how to do. It can summarise the chapter, construct the argument, solve the problem, improve the prose, suggest the hypothesis and sometimes write the entire assign...

Peter Thiel does not think the argument that matters in 2028 is Vance against Rubio. In Berlin last month, on Mathias Döpfner's podcast, the PayPal and Palantir cofounder said he was still a Vance partisan and that it would be hard for either Republican to win. He put the odds of a democratic socialist in the White House at about fifty percent. "If...

 Cholesterol became the cause of heart attacks because a profitable story won a scientific argument in the 1960s, and the drugs that move the number arrived later to keep the story alive. A Midwestern Doctor's October 2026 essay, "The Great Cholesterol Lie and the Dangers of Statins," is one long attempt to separate the molecule from the myth....

Obscuring weak arguments behind baffling terminology has long been a woke tactic. In the Mail, Andrew Doyle offers an A to Z guide to decoding its strangest phrases, from 'white tears' to 'misogynoir'. Here's an excerpt: A Allyship The practice of advocating for people from marginalised groups and basking in the warm glow of their oppression…. B Bi...
