Healthy Trousers


Interesting juxtaposition of news stories on the BBC News website this morning.

  1. Bacon and sausages linked to breast cancer, and
  2. Costa advert banned for urging customers to buy a bacon roll rather than an avocado.
No idea who or what Tinchy Stryder is. Sounds like a brand of children's trousers.

By the way, in answer to Boris Johnson's assertion that when 95% of world growth is forecast to be generated outside of the EU, we shouldn't shackle ourselves to the EU. Well, why start from a position of weakness as an isolated country, rather than as a member of the world's largest trading block? The man is a dangerous demagogue and those who fawn on him are fools.

By the way, an increase from 1 to 2 is 100% growth. More pertinent is the volume and value of trade. Boris' use of growth is a deliberate deceit.
