The GOP has successfully fooled them into voting for them 4 decades and MUCH has to do with #racism.

My latest offering, the Ghost Camera, recounts a ground breaking science experiment that doesn't exactly work, but does something very weird. All observed by the laboratory janitor.

Interesting. The head of UKRI is talking to the Commons Science, Innovation and Tech. Committee tomorrow: hope one of the MPs asks about his dramatic cuts to the astronomy budget.
Re the disastrous cuts to astronomy confirmed by Ian Chapman's letter, the Commons SIT Committee is questioning him tomorrow. I very much hope this is covered... One for
