That might be the case for that trial, but: What's involved in taking part in a vaccine study? If you take part in a vaccine study you'll need to visit the hospital, or other research site, a few times over 6 to 12 months. At these visits, you'll usually: be told about the research...

Or a vaccine that fails clinical trials? Our plans seem to include recognition of vaccinations in at least some other countries. But only if we recognise the vaccine used. Assuming that is reciprocal, Novavax-vaccinated subjects in the UK, will only be regarded as vaccinated when Novavax is...

Afraid the approaches that might help are utterly ignored. For example, if Halfords (or whoever else) became liable for each offence committed on units they sell. With an escalator, one idiot + one offence = 10 to the power one fines, 10 idiots + 10 offences = 10 to the power 10 fines, and so on.

I see a Sage member is calling the government out: Sage adviser claims ministers trying to get as many as possible infected with Covid Exclusive: Prof Robert West says rhetoric about caution is ‘a way of putting blame on public’ A scientist advising the government has accused ministers of...

Trouble is, the phrase "With respect", and many others which superfically appear polite, or very polite, are widely used facetiously. Not saying you did.

Cameron provided the pig's head?

You don't need to put "With respect" - that comes across as if you are just about to insult me. :) I know you have said that. Now I have also said it!

The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, has rejected Boris Johnson’s move to renegotiate the Northern Irish protocol, raising the temperature of a simmering Brexit row. “The EU will continue to be creative and flexible within the protocol framework. But we will not...

I've heard there are some spare robots available from Ocado - maybe they could to the actual shelf-filling (almost magically) for as long as they don't crash and burn.

Just how are they going to achieve this? If it is just a legal requirement, it will get ignored. If it is a technical requirement, it might prove more difficult that many would think. And is likely to be easy enough to work round, even if it takes a while for workable techniques to get well...

Thank goodness, just what we need. A Vera Lynn memorial.

If enclosed, it will make minimal difference to drag. Special rules for special circumstances. If the unit is designed for the purpose, a suitable exemption could be enacted.

We used to see lots of Transits (and other vans and pick-ups) hauling compressors. Don't actually know why it seems so much rarer nowadays! Imagine that, instead of dangling on a classic towbar, the compressor actually attached more like an artic. Maybe the van could have a bit of its floor...

Just one bleeding day! Tory MPs suspended for trying to influence judge in Elphicke case Day’s suspension ordered for MPs who wrote to senior judges before hearing in sexual assault case

I see our local cases have risen from about 25 in April to over 290. Despite summer weather.

Thomas or Oliver? :)

We got rid of Asquith during WW1. Can we please get rid of Johnson... Much of the criticism of Asquith applies to Johnson. Where is our Lloyd George?

They can't even get their own ministers understanding their isolation policies. Does this reflect on the mental capacity of those defining and promulgating the policy or the ministers who fail to understand? No 10 insists it is 'crucial' for people to isolate when pinged, in rebuke to minister...

One of the simplest questions. No. Though it might be possible to come up with imagined situations of such unpleasantness to him that actually seeing him in them would counteract the fundamental visceral reaction to seeing him.

Did you see that Ocado has had another fire at one of their warehouses? Three robots crashed into each other. I can't help wondering the implications of this sort of event. I think most of us would imagine that a purpose-built warehouse, with relatively low top speeds, is an order of magnitude...
