Alcohol Free "Pub"


I see Jamie Walker has set up Dry, an alcohol free pub in Edinburgh.

He is quoted by The Morning Advertiser as saying:
"A choice hasn't really been given in Edinburgh tp be able to go to an alcohol free space."
Every success and all that, but aren't alcohol free "pubs" called cafes?

The Dangers of Caffeine


As per the Telegraph, commiserations to the two students were nearly killed after they were given enough caffeine for 300 cups of coffee during a botched science experiment.

Northumbria University has been fined £400,000 for the incident in March 2015 which caused Alex Rossetto and Luke Parkin to be rushed to hospital and put on dialysis.

The pair had volunteered to take part in a test aiming to measure the effect of caffeine on exercise, but a basic calculation error meant the second-year students were given 100 times the correct dosage.

Prosecutor Adam Farrer told Newcastle Crown Court that the pair should have been given 0.3g of caffeine in the orange juice mix, but were in fact given 30g.

There is 0.1g in the average cup of coffee.

Newcastle Crown Court heard the calculation had been done on a mobile phone, the decimal point being put in the wrong place and there being no risk assessment for the test.

Given all the health and safety/risk BS we are force fed every day, I am more than "puzzled" as to how an institution of academic excellence managed not only to put the decimal point in the wrong place, but also didn't think to apply common sense wrt the dosage before giving it to the hapless students!

Will Nanny ban caffeine then, given that it is clearly dangerous?

Nanny's Chip Inspector


The other day Nanny's chums from the Food Standards Agency (FSA) stated that crispy roast potatoes and browned toast (starchy foods that are roasted/toasted form acrylamide) cause cancer.

All very well and tedious, except for the fact that there is no proof that there is a link to cancer.

Anyhoo, undeterred by lack of scientific evidence and a general drubbing by all and sundry that the advice is bollocks, Nanny is now gearing up to enforce a "no burn" rule in pubs, cafes and restaurants.

The Telegraph reports that under a new European Union food hygiene directive, due to be adopted in the UK by the the end of 2017 (ermm aren't we leaving?), pubs and restaurants will be told to take reasonable steps to reduce acrylamide in food or face enforcement measures.

It means those eateries continuing to serve "high acrylamide" foods, such as brown roast potatoes or burned Yorkshire puddings, could be visited by the Food Standards Agency's enforcement officers and face hefty fines.Restaurants will be offered a guide full of tips on how to reduce acrylamide in food which will also be used by the FSA's enforcement team to gauge whether levels are unacceptably high.

The guide will include colour charts designed to be kept in kitchens to show chefs which shades of yellow and brown are safe for cooked chips and potatoes to match.

It will also advise chefs to buy types of potatoes which are low in starch and blanch chips and potatoes before frying or roasting, and cooking them at a lower heat and for less time.

Were this 1 April I would have assumed that this was a joke, but it isn't!!

Well I don't know about anyone else, but if I want dark brown tatties etc in a restaurant I will order and eat them, and if I don't I won't. I don't need Nanny stepping in to help me order food when eating out!

Snowflakes Ban Plato


Oh dear, I see that so called "higher education" is attracting more and more intolerant idiots.

The student snowflake union at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) has got its collective knickers in a twist over the contents of of courses that deal with philosophy. It seems that that figures such as Plato, Descartes and Immanuel Kant are offensive to the snowflakes.

For why?

Coz they is white!


The snowflakes in the union insist that when studying philosophy “the majority of philosophers on our courses” should be from Africa and Asia.

The snowflakes claim this is part of their wider campaign to “decolonise” the university, as it seeks to “address the structural and epistemological legacy of colonialism”.

Unsurprisingly, more intelligent people have think that this is bollocks. Sir Roger Scruton, the philosopher, said the demands suggest “ignorance”.

He is quoted by the Telegraph:
You can't rule out a whole area of intellectual endeavour without having investigated it and clearly they haven't investigated what they mean by white philosophy.

If they think there is a colonial context from which Kant's Critique of Pure Reason arose, I would like to hear it."
Unfortunately, Sir Roger's reasoning may well be ignored, even so called "educated" people (or those who seek to be "educated") can be remarkably bigoted and cretinous.

Oh and by the way, in 2014 Nathan P. Gilmour (Associate Professor of English and Composition Culture Director, Emmanuel College Cambridge) wrote an article pointing out that Plato was not in fact "white".
"That’s what’s insidious about declaring Plato “White” too easily: such a move threatens to obscure the contingency of history, in which the man Plato was not “White” because that term takes its twenty-first-century meaning not from skin-coloring but from a centuries-long (but not THAT many centuries!) narrative of Capitalist-formed human slavery, nationalist-based empire-building, and–I grant this point–attempts to co-opt texts like those of Homer and Euripides and Plato as parts of a “Western Canon,” a movement that claims them as part of a project of “civilization” undeniably tied up in the story of how northern and western Europeans became “White” as opposed to the Asian and African and American tribes over whom they won military supremacy."
Maybe the snowflakes should read that first beofre unleashing their 21st century prejudices on a long dead philosopher.

Educashun - Getting Dumber Generation By Generation


According to research in Iceland, people are becoming dumber.

As per the Guardian the research from deCODE, a genetics firm in Reykjavik, finds that groups of genes that predispose people to spend more years in education became a little rarer in the country from 1910 to 1975.

The scientists used a database of more than 100,000 Icelanders to see how dozens of gene variants that affect educational attainment appeared in the population over time. They found a shallow decline over the 65 year period, implying a downturn in the natural inclination to rack up qualifications.

But the genes involved in education affected fertility too. Those who carried more “education genes” tended to have fewer children than others. This led the scientists to propose that the genes had become rarer in the population because, for all their qualifications, better educated people had contributed less than others to the Icelandic gene pool.

Now whether this is true or not, the effects of environment/educational systems also play a very large part in people's ambitons and ability/desire to learn.

However, the sad fact in the Britain is that ambition, competiton (academic/sports) and the desire to better oneself have all but been erradicted by Nanny.

Oxfam's Policy of Envy



Oxfam, instead of looking for pro active means to promote growth that helps bring people out of poverty, instead has decided to decry those individuals who themselves have contributed in bucket loads to charity.

The politics of envy is an easy card to play, but an unworthy one!

Oh, and by the way, Oxfam has net assets of Euro391M as at March 2015. Oxfam should lead by example and disburse the liquid portion of those assets!

Oh, one more thing, Oxfam's list excludes many very wealthy people eg George Soros!

AHA Hates Booze And Talks Bollocks


Nanny is no longer content with just having a go at fag packets and advertising, she has now turned her gimlet eye upon booze adverts.

Nanny's chums from Alcohol Health Alliance (no I have never heard of them either!) - an umbrella group of more than 40 UK health NGOs, including the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges - have called for a ban on alcohol advertising in the UK, in light of new research that claims the industry’s marketing practices encourage young people to drink.

Prof Sir Ian Gilmore, chair of AHA, said:
It is clear that self-regulation is not working and we welcome calls for greater action from governments to protect children from exposure to alcohol marketing.

We know that alcohol marketing contains content and messages that appeal to children, and that due to exposure to this advertising, children drink more, and start drinking at an earlier age.
All very "caring" and "won't someone think of the children" no doubt, but it transpires that AHA are talking utter bollocks, as per the Guardian recent data showing that levels of youth drinking in the UK are the lowest on record, with only about 17% of children aged eight to 15 admitting to ever drinking alcohol.

In other words, AHA are either massively misinformed or are lying!

You Are What You Eat


According to a recent study by the LSE traditional meals recommended by parents are now simply too much for a less-active generation.

Errmm, small point here, previous generations ate home cooked meals consisting of meat, spuds and veg. It would seem that many in the modern world now eat pre cooked, fast food, high sugar/fat shite. In other words, people are not eating the same type of food as was eaten by their parents.

Could that be a factor in the porkiness epidemic??

Snowflake Alert - The Oncoming Madness


Nanny is reforming how universities are ranked via the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF), whereby universities will be awarded gold, silver or bronze medals on the basis of a range of factors including student satisfaction, teaching excellence and preparation for the world of work.

Universities are currently ranked based on quality of research output.

This will pressurise universities to pander to the demands of "snowflake" students, and universities will give in to student demands, however unreasonable they may be.

As we have seen, "safe space" and "no platform" movements have swept across campuses including a campaign to ban Germaine Greer from giving a speech over her "offensive" comments.

Baroness Wolf, a professor at King’s College London (KCL), is quoted by the Telegraph:
Universities are increasingly nervous about doing anything that will create overt dissatisfaction among students because they are being told that student satisfaction is key.

It has had a real effect on the willingness of universities to stand up to student demands which in the past have been removing statues, safe spaces and no-platforming. This whole movement is a direct threat to academic standards and the ability of universities to stand up for freedom of speech.

The student satisfaction measure is fantastically dangerous. The way to make students happy is not asking them to do any work and giving them a high grade.

This whole movement is a direct threat to academic standards and the ability of universities to stand up for freedom of speech.


This will reduce standards and undermine quality.  I just think this is totally mad, and destructive of everything universities stand for.”
This will end in tears!

The Dangers of Detox

As we enter the post Xmas period of depression, the media is awash with detox, diets and other health bollocks.

How amusing and refreshing to see that doctors are warning about the dangers of detox and excess water consumption.

My advice is simple, if you want to detox then ensure that you drink good quality vodka not the cheap shit!
