Excited to share a new article of mine on menopause, drawn from my on-going research in clinical psychology. I argue it’s a major developmental transition on par with puberty, shaped by culture as much as biology. Grateful for anyone who takes a look! www.zmescience.com/feature-post...

I'm not a historian but I am a political scientist and in my professional opinion saying Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history is less controversial than saying 2+2=4 or Victor Wembanyama is tall.

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.

Nigel Farage is actually quoted as saying that the Home Secretary ‘sounds like a Reform supporter’ with these horrible policies. She probably thinks that’s a good thing - most right minded people think it’s a disgrace.
Just wilful performative cruelty that is entirely out of step with the majority of British people.
