Generally an easy going character that believes in fairness. I have a strong dislike of wrongdoing, the right wing press/media, profit before compassion, corporate greed etc. These views are my own

I'm genuinely surprised by these early Phase 2 results for a new lung cancer drug: 90.5% disease control rate! This means tumors shrunk or stopped growing for most patients. It's close to triple standard chemo. Promising stuff to learn about.

Flying is officially on course to account for *almost all* the UK's carbon dioxide emissions by 2050. Heathrow expansion alone would cause more carbon emissions by 2054 than *any other sector of the economy*. So why is it being contemplated? My column.

The expansion of Heathrow would be an expensive disaster for Britain and the world. Burnham needs to block it | George Monbiot
A third runway would fly in the face of reason. If we are to prioritise human life over short-term ‘growth’, we need to use planes less, not more, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Involving both the public and all parties in shaping reforms on how they vote will be crucial.
