Ten years ago, Charity Engine began donating computing time - over 200 million hours so far - to the Institute for Protein Design's brilliant Rosetta @ Home project.

Its founder, David Baker, won the 2024 Nobel Prize for Chemistry.

Jail is too good for the monsters doing this to children
Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

400,000 children dead and counting, already 20x more than in Gaza.

Projected to reach over 4 MILLION.

More dead children than in every war, pandemic and famine this century, COMBINED.

All thanks to one man. Can you guess who?

Meta earns $3.5 billion every six months from showing Faceboon and Instagram users 15 billion “higher legal risk” scam ad impressions a day, internal documents state.

That haul vastly exceeds how much the company expects regulators
To fine it for running scam ads.

Angles and Saxons came from northern Europe in the 5th Century after the Romans left Britain.

Before then, and going back to the Iron Age, our indigenous peoples were Celtic Britons and, in Scotland, the Picts.

If we're talking about repatriating foreigners, let's start with racist Anglo-Saxons
Nigel Farage's favoured Mayoral candidate for Doncaster said black people cannot be English.

Reform councillor Alexander Jones claimed being English requires Anglo-Saxon ‘lineage’.

The messages were deleted after questions were raised by Byline Times

"The Shire is the Greater London area, like Hertfordshire and Oxfordshire" - Musk

Hertfordshire isn't part of Greater London.

Neither is Oxfordshire.

And finally, Tolkien based The Shire on a little village in Warwickshire, over 100 miles away from any of them.

THIS MAN IS A PANGALACTIC MORON
Elon Musk, "These lovely small towns in England, Scotland and Ireland, they've been living their lives quietly. They're like hobbits"

"And so one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500 and start raping the kids"

When the Express and Mail scream blue murder, then you know the Govt did something right.

Credit where it's due:
The Renter's Rights Bill is now law - meaning from early next year, renters in Luton North will have the protections Labour promised at the election. 🏠

This govt believes everyone has the right to live in a safe home, protected from exploitation and malpractice. This new Act delivers on that.

Watch with sound OFF.

Sometimes the body language is all you need
Farage is asked about another two of his MEPs, who made the same pro-Russia statements that Nathan Gill has now pled guilty to being bribed to make.

"Opinions are opinions."

Farage's defence seems to be that they arrived at those views independently and it has nowt to do with him.

Hmm. 🤔 ~AA

Yes, Reform are racist.

Yes, Reform are corrupt.

Reform voters don't care.

But what those voters do care about, once they learn the awful truth, is that

REFORM CANNOT GOVERN EVEN A SINGLE COUNCIL.

Keep spreading the word, they hate it
Nigel Farage’s Flagship Kent Council is in trouble.

He will be considering Linden Kemkaran’s future.
