Painkillers Help Depression?


Now here's an interesting thing, it seems that taking two painkillers a day can reduce the symptoms of depression, a study has suggested. The findings have prompted calls for trials on whether over-the-counter pills could be prescribed for mental health disorders.

Scientists reviewed 26 previous studies to look at the effect of anti-inflammatory drugs, including ibuprofen and aspirin, on the symptoms of “major depressive disorder”. These include low moods and the inability to feel pleasure.

Researchers from the University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, China, found that the drugs were 79 per cent more effective at eliminating symptoms and 52 per cent more effective at reducing their overall severity than a placebo.

The problem, I suspect, will come when Nanny will decide that because those with depression may need a prescription to obtain painkillers (that are currently sold "over the counter") then all painkillers will be subjected to an "only by prescription" order irrespective of the reason for needing the painkiller.

Or am I being just a tad too cynical?

The Dangers of Poppies


As loyal readers know Nanny always manages to stay one step ahead of the health and safety game, by moving the goal posts.

Case in point being her ban on large sized poppies being attached to lampposts in Stalybriudge Greater Manchester.

Last year large scale poppies were attached to the lampposts, and residents assumed the same would happen this year. Unfortunately, Nanny has moved the goalposts.

The Sun reports that shopkeeper Peter Taylor was astonished to receive the refusal letter which read:
I regret that we are not able to support your request . . . last year was a ‘one-off’ to commemorate the centenary for the end of the First World War.

The council has stringent health and safety guidelines it has to comply with including stress and push testing of lamp columns.

This is a service we would need to procure and we do not have the budget for it.
For the record, each poppy weighs no more that a plastic picnic plate.

Parish Councillor Neil Allsopp is quoted:
It’s a ludicrous decision. This is when we recognise the sacrifice that men and women made for this country.

I can’t believe the mentality and the lack of feeling of the people behind it. May they hang their heads in shame.”
Thameside District Council have not provided a comment.

Oxford University Bans Clapping


It seems that mankind's tradition (it goes back to at least the 6th century BC) of clapping when showing approval has fallen foul of Nanny and her minions.

Students at the University of Oxford have voted to ‘replace clapping’ with a silent wave because it ‘could trigger anxiety’.

They are instead being told to use ‘jazz hands’, where they wave their hands in the air.

The new rules will apply at student union events, and if successful, rolled out to other societies and events.

This makes the students of Oxford look utterly ridiculous.

How did mankind survive before 21st century Nanny and her minions came along?

Irn-Bru Sticks Two Fingers Up To Nanny



Nanny's sugar tax levy had forced Irn-Bru to mess with its recipe, much the the consternation of its loyal customers.

As such, the company has decided to stick two fingers upo to Nanny and produce a limited batch of its original recipe (containing sugar) from 1901.

Robin Barr, who unearthed the recipe, is quoted by STV:

"The 1901 recipe has aged beautifully over the last 118 years.

For a limited time, we'll be producing a premium 'old and unimproved' Irn-Bru 1901 just as it was enjoyed by our first fans.

This is Irn-Bru as you've never tasted it. It's a chance to enjoy a unique and authentic piece of Scottish history - but don't hang about, we don't think it will be around for long."

Nanny Wants Shops To Hide Booze


Edinburgh's Deputy Council Leader, Cammy Day, is taking his Nanny instructions from the Children's Parliament (and no, I don't mean Westminster).

The Children’s Parliament issued a report in which children as young as nine voiced concern about the high visibility of alcohol in everyday life. The Children’s Parliament report published last month called for alcohol to be made less visible in shops and on TV, and the removal of adverts from billboards and an end to alcohol firms sponsoring events where children are present.

Day is seeking a meeting with Community Safety Minister Ash Denham on the issue.

Well here's the thing:

1 What the fuck is the Children's Parliament (other than a PR exercise)?

2 This is an adult world, run by adults. The visibility of alcohol in shops is not a matter of concern for children.

3 Hiding the booze won't change people's consumption in any way!

Ban Air Miles To Reduce Flying


It seems that a report by Nanny's climate change advisers recommends that air miles schemes should be banned because they encourage excessive flying.

The ban would affect millions of customers of British Airways, Virgin Atlantic and other airlines that have loyalty programmes. The report by Imperial College London for the Committee on Climate Change says that frequent flyers, who earn the most air miles, should be targeted as Nanny seeks to meet its emissions reduction targets.

Call me old fashioned, but wouldn't a simpler way to reduce flying be to tax it more?

Those of us with air miles know full well that they are not particularly useful as many flights (particularly at popular times) don't accept them, as such you invariably find that your air miles have aged off the system or you end up using them on vodka.

Nanny To Ban Eating on Public Transport


Professor Dame Sally Davies, Nanny's Chief Medical Officer and food nazi, wants to ban people eating on public transport.

For why?

Seemingly it will make us slimmer.

Well, if I could be bothered to waste my time on thinking up various reasons why this is bollocks list them here (eg it won't work people will remain fat, some people need to eat on public transport eg diabetics, it is unenforceable etc etc).

However, I will simply save my time and yours by saying:

FUCK OFF TO NANNY!

Meat Doesn't Pose a Cancer Risk


Despite the world and his wife lecturing us that meat causes cancer, and that we must cut down, new research indicates that it makes bugger all difference to the chances of you getting cancer if you cut down on meat eating or not!

Colour me "surprised"..NOT!

Needless to say, Nanny and her acolytes are not best pleased when confronted with facts.

The World Health Organization has classified red and processed meats as cancer-causing. Public health bodies worldwide urge people to limit their intake of red and processed meat to reduce their cancer risk. The NHS advises that people who eat 90g of meat a day – equivalent to three thin slices of roast meat – should cut down to 70g.

As such, these lecturing busybodies will ignore science and continue to tell us to cut down.

Oh, and let us not forget that Nanny has a new string to her anti-meat bow, namely the alleged environmental impact of eating meat.

Sigh!
