The Race to Find a Measles Treatment as Infections Surge
The measles vaccine was so effective the disease was considered eliminated in the U.S., but a resurgence of outbreaks is spurring a need for drugs.
Just the shear stupidity of this. βLetβs spend billions to find a treatment for something that is really hard to treat (number of effective anti-virals for acute infections can be counted on a few fingers) when we have an amazingly effective and cheap preventative alreadyβ

False flagged shadow tanker NOBLE WALKER has last day unimpeded passed through Danish territorial waters and will likely enter Germany in 2h.
She is about to do her fourth ~100k ton oil delivery last 12 months.
Given that she is without a flag she is ripe for picking had there been actual will.

82% of Brits want to renationalise water, Labour ruling it out, and media ignoring that eg the Greens with the same number of MPs also want to renationalise water means, that this is how Reform UK wins the next election

London has benefitted massively from ULEZ and you have to salute Sadiq for pushing it through in the face of stiff opposition from the boring old climate change deniers and the right wing media.

Dear Mr. Clegg
I have started a business, selling the contents of your house
I knew when I launched I did not have legal access your house
Without this access my company will not be profitable
Others have told me I have a flawed business model, but I disagree
Please advise how I should proceed

"The UK is now trapped in a pincer movement: on one flank, tech-giant lobbying seeks to erode the stateβs capacity to regulate; on the other, these same corporations are inching ever deeper into essential public services."

Does Canadaβs future lie in the European Union?
Canada is geopolitically vulnerable β relying too much on its traditional trading partners
"Canada possesses natural resources that are crucial to the European energy transition: lithium, cobalt and nickel. Enhanced collaboration would ensure a secure and sustainable supply to Europe while promoting strategic industries on both sides of the Atlantic."

Hold on, so Steve Witkoff was participating in the Signal group discussing war plans against Houthis while being physically in Moscow, perhaps even in the Kremlin? He met Putin late on March 13. Obviously the odds of Russia not compromising any device he would bring there are pretty slim.
