Was the cure for diabetes just discovered? 💉 In a recent clinical study, scientists used embryonic stem cells to grow insulin-producing pancreatic cells and transplanted them into 14 people with type 1 diabetes. 🧪
This, the finest news story ever published, has once again appeared in my inbox, and it would be rude not to share it.
![THRASHED BY A LADY CYCLIST. WHO IS NOTED FOR HER ATHLETIC POWERS. [SUBJECT OF ILLUSTRATION.] AN extraordinary scene was witnessed on Seturday morning in Peel Lane, a thoroughfare connecting Little Hulton with lyldesley, in which the principal participants were a young lady cyclist and a youth of nineteen or twenty. The lady was riding at a good pace, and when in a quiet part of the road the young man, who had apparently been imbibing, stepped into the roadway, and, addressing some insulting remarks to the cyclist, made as if he intended pulling her of the machine. She immediately alighted caught hold of the astonished youth, and gave him& sound thrashing, using her tists in scientitie fashion, to the delight of several colliers who were passing. The young man made off, and the cyclist, who is believed to be a Bolton lady noted for her athletic powers, rode off towards Tylesley.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:irlrdb4p2swljzcdjbhc54gd/bafkreiedp7arp6qkhtp5sx5uff7ba3ps4cneoyinnff36wfppwdicwwrj4@jpeg "Click to view full size")

Border Force staff represented by PCS Union have proposed practical solutions to prevent dangerous Channel crossings. Visa schemes, based on the Ukrainian scheme, could help restore order to a chaotic system. It’s time for solutions that treat people with dignity and respect.
Each day I am astounded and mortified by this country’s descent into open and brazen racism I am equally astounded and mortified that rather than push back on the malign forces taking us to these dark places - an elected Labour government appears more interested in trying to learn from them

Ydych chi'n ei chael hi’n anodd talu'r biliau? Nid chi yw’r unig rai. Mae Plaid Cymru yn galw ar Lywodraeth y DU i gymryd camau brys i helpu pobl sy'n teimlo'r pwysau oherwydd costau byw cynyddol. Dyma beth ddylai Llafur ei wneud.
Are you struggling to pay the bills? You’re not alone. Plaid Cymru is calling on the UK Government to take urgent action to help people who are feeling the squeeze from rising living costs. Here’s what Labour should do.

Can't remember the last time I saw a picture of the anti-racist protesters in the media. This article was the same.
It has nothing to do with 'the boats' and everything to do with racism. We're becoming like America. Racist couple filmed yelling abuse at NHS nurse walking in park with family flip.it/s8mIzl
Perfect 👌🏼
I post my thoughts on here, which is pretty much the same thing.
What I don't understand about dubbed voices in 'foreign language' film and tv. Why don't they use English speaking actors from that country instead of the ill fitting and sometimes ridiculous American speaking actors? Surely that makes more sense. To be honest I usually go with the subtitles.
Oh, and when talking about all the sport available on the BBC during the Hundred cricket coverage, absolutely zero mention of the Rugby World Cup. But hey, they have baseball 🤷🤦🏼 The @bbciplayer.bsky.social is completely ignored.
Well I would have liked to watch every game of the Rugby World Cup, but thanks to @bbciplayer.bsky.social I'm looking at a blank screen for NZ v Japan. It's bad enough they tucked it away off the terrestrial channels. Sexist nonsense.
Say 'when', it'll make everyone feel better.
This Saturday 10 years ago we were in Clitheroe. C pushed 4 yr old Alice on the park swings and I sat and read Rob Young's glowing review of PAOC. Basking in the late summer sunshine and buoyed by the success of AVIH I sat back and waited for more reviews to roll in. And waited. And waited. And....
He's in Murdoch's pocket, was never go to happen. Until media barons are illegal along with lobbyists and wealthy donors, it'll never change. Anyway, have a lovely Sunday 😄
Wait until you hear about The Great Pottery Throw down and The Great British Sewing Bee. You'll be hooked (pardon the pun) Decent people making lovely things.
A fantastic game in York last night and an excellent achievement by the USA Eagles. Obviously that orange prick in the White House won't recognise them as they're one of the many things he fears. Strong, talented women.
I've been saying for a while, I'd love to see her at open side, or even one of those new fangled mobile no.8s. Wouldn't affect her 7s career either.
This is what Reform will do, strip assets from workers and the community, steal the money or pass it to their mates. It's the Trump playbook. www.itv.com/news/central...

No, Lord Falconer. Labour should stop pandering to this nonsense. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
P.s. I'd love to see Ilona Maher at open side.
Absolutely hosing it down here in the Valleys. Spent the day titting about, cleaning, made a chilli, listening to 'Prog' albums. I use the quotation marks as subjective: Calibro 45 PLANK Boards Of Canada Field Music Ohsees Make your own minds up (if indeed anyone actually reads this)
I'm absolutely loving this Rugby World Cup, some of the results are very one sided, but that will change. Just seeing these women loving every minute on the pitch makes it absolutely worthwhile, great crowds as well. In this absolute shit show of a world, it's absolutely heart warming.
Yet politicians that do the same get a seat in the Lords.
In which case, he should be able to see a deranged, duplicitous cunt when he looks in a mirror.
If I had a time machine, obviously I'd go back first to make a fortune betting on FA Cup Final results. Then, with said fortune, I'd go back again to all the gigs you post about.

The UK Crown Estate made a profit of over a BILLION pounds in 24/25. Welsh communities should benefit from our natural resources, not the treasury nor the crown. While Labour block the devolution of the Crown Estate, Plaid Cymru will always fight for Wales' interests.
She really is
Farage owns four homes: Family home (£1M, retained after his divorce) Two beachside homes in Kent (via his comp. Thorn In The Side Ltd) One investment property in Surrey (rented out) Radio silence from media about this but uproar about Angela Rayner’s two homes & ministerial home #NigelFarage
They do Absolutely what they want, as I've said elsewhere, the BBC desperately miss the Tories and as they're virtually unelectable they have Reform as a surrogate. Their latest dogwhistle is how they keep mentioning that the school shooter in the US 'identifies as a woman', completely unnecessary.
Must be so hard typing without fingers, well played.
Again, well played Flipboard. You can almost read my mind.
No you're not.
Well played, Flipboard.
So THAT'S what Wet Leg were singing about!
100% the car wins.
Think I saw Ozempic Vulva on the NME stage at Glastonbury in '92.
This seems even more important today following the wall to wall coverage given to Farage throughout the day. Read, share, comment 👍 talkingwales.co.uk?p=1095&=1
No10 spokesman not prepared to criticise anything about Farage speech today. Not his description of "invasion", not his prediction that the UK on brink of civil war, not plans to pay the Taliban or Iran to take back migrants, or indeed to rule out doing so themselves.
Nigel Farage tells his press conference that his deportations will save the UK "hundreds of billions" of pounds. He knows he can make literally anything up at this point and not be called out for it
"Are asylum seekers the biggest political issue in Britain?" Asks radio 4. "We interview man who is determined to make it the biggest issue in Britain. And make it a headline every morning until it definitely is"
I was just saying this to someone else, the amount of Farage/immigrant/small boats coverage on their news outlets is disgraceful. Sky and BBC really miss the Tories, but as they're unelectable at the moment, they've turned to Reform as their sweethearts.
This is the way. 👏🏼😂

100% staged. P.s. Not a conspiracy theorist
These are the cycle hangars that BUT MY CAR said were taking up vital parking spaces and nobody’s going to use them anyway. They should put in more.

If the BBC actually cared about the Rugby World Cup 2025 they wouldn't be squirreling games away on the iPlayer or the 'red button' God forbid that people should miss A Place In The Country or repeats of The Great British Sewing Bee. This wouldn't happen with the men's tournament.
Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:

Check this shit! Earlier today, ICE tried to break into private property in Lynwood, California — no judicial warrant, no authority. Acting like thugs, not federal agents. Spoiler alert: Lynwood does not play. This trio of goons got sent packing.
Funnily enough, I was just thinking that. Also, whilst scrolling through the news on my phone, all three from the BBC: '11,000 asylum applications' 'Most asylum hotels in Labour run council areas' 'Why are so many St George flags going up across England?' They're cheerleading for Reform.
Wholeheartedly agree 🧐
Such a great picture

I feel the same. I have great fears that they'll do well in the local elections here in Wales. Plaid Cymru are doing their best to counter, but Labour are so England-centric and have lost touch with The Valleys

Plaid Cymru will invest in the arts and culture, and ensure these sectors are central to our ambition to build a healthier, wealthier Wales. 🎨🏴💚
Hmmmm.
@chrishawkinsdj.bsky.social So THAT'S what Weg Leg were singing about!

It’s time for ambition. It’s time for new leadership. It’s time for Plaid Cymru. 🏴 ✊ Help us elect a pro-Wales government next year by joining Plaid Cymru today: partyof.wales/join #Wales #Welsh #WelshPolitics
Who’s behind the Centre for Migration Control? This so-called “research organisation” has been cited in The Sun, The Telegraph, The Times and Express - but it appears to be run by one man with a Brexit campaign past, publishing opaque and selective data and wild claims about migrants. 🧵 1/2
100 years of standing up for Wales. A party rooted in our communities - not in London. Next year, let’s write a new chapter with a Plaid Cymru government putting the interests of Wales first, every single time. 💚
