Lying with science: a guide to myth debunking
The shamelessness of the apocaholics is increasingly blatant. They know that even if a story of impending doom is thoroughly debunked, the correction comes too late.

Unfortunately it looks like Dr Grossman hasn’t actually bothered to read the Department of Health’s reports on no deal planning herself, which leave her lurid claims looking rather limp. The Government has already taken measures to open new shipping channels and procure freight capacity to ensure that all medical supplies can still get smoothly in and out of the UK even if there is increased friction at the border.
Theresa May‘s pledge to protect workers‘ rights after Brexit ‚could persuade up to 70 Labour MPs to back her deal‘
Theresa May’s pledge to protect workers’ rights after Brexit could persuade up to 70 Labour MPs to back her deal, it was claimed last night.

A permanent UK-EU customs union would create worse problems that those it would supposedly solve
It should go without saying that if the EU know we will not leave without a deal, then they have no incentive to change the backstop. And with no change to the backstop, the Withdrawal Agreement as it stands looks dead in the water.
Attention now is likely to switch to whether Theresa May will reverse her long-standing promise to leave the Customs Union with the aim of tempting enough Labour MPs to back a Withdrawal Agreement.

Brexit must be delayed even if Theresa May gets deal through parliament this month, Barnier says
Theresa May will have to delay Brexit even if she gets her exit plan through parliament this month, Michel Barnier has said.

GILETS JAUNES : LES BLESSÉS QUI DÉRANGENT
(27.2.2019) Ils ont perdu un œil, une main, un bout de visage, ou leurs dents. En une fraction de seconde, leur vie a été bouleversée, parfois brisée parce qu‘ils marchaient pacifiquement au sein ou aux abords d‘une manifestation. Ils sont plus de 2000 selon les chiffres officiels à avoir été blessés par les forces de l’ordre pendant les manifestations des gilets jaunes. Nous sommes allés à la rencontre d’une trentaine de ces blessés graves à travers la France au cours des dernières semaines.

Rede: Wir sind nicht gegen das Urheberrecht. Wir sind aber gegen verpflichtende Uploadfilter
Und wir befürchten, dass darunter auch schnell legitimier zivilgesellschaftliche Protest wie am Hambacher Wald oder Ende Gelände drunter fallen könnte.
Denn sowohl der Energiekonzern RWE als auch die NRW-Regierung sprachen in diesem Zusammenhang von Terrorvorwürfen. Werden Klimaproteste dann zukünftig direkt beim Hochladen gefiltert und finden in unserer Realität dann nicht mehr statt?
Enfin ! ? Après des semaines de „le mouvement s‘essouffle“, l‘envoyé spécial de #CNEWS à Paris se lâche ! „Il y‘a Énormément de #GiletsJaunes “ ! ? #ActeXVI #Acte16
