St Ben of Goldacre might like that one. Send him a copy.

Today’s episode of “shampoo science”, a listener’s description, was on Radio Four, You and Yours, maybe Woman’s Hour, the two are interchangeable, where someone who would “bleed internally” if he spent too long in a Wi-Fi zone, warned that men should not keep their mobile phones within reaching distance of their dangly bits.

He proffered loads of reports, including one from the European Parliament, which, he said, overwhelmingly prove that mobiles muck up your sperm.

Somehow I see a link between these two stories.

I can’t stand Christian Concern.  They’ve just sent me a press release about the Dorries/Field abortion amendment, trumpeting some research purporting to show that abortion raises the risk of mental health problems by 81%. See  http://www.christianconcern.com/our-concerns/abortion/study-finds-abortion-raises-risk-of-mental-health-problems-by-81. It turns out, surprise surprise, that the research is severely rickety.  It’s been nicely diced at http://www.ministryoftruth.me.uk/page/2/?s=Coleman, on the Ministry of Truth website.  It’s not obvious to me who runs this website.  Does anybody know?
