Nitazenes are a new category of synthetic opioids, also known as 2-benzyl ben-z-im-i-da-zole. These little delights were first uncovered in the European drug markets in 2019 and in Scotland in 2021. They were created in the 1950s to serve as opioid analgesics—that’s painkillers, to you an’ me. Wisely so, they were never approved for marketing. This…

In this episode, I’m talking about artificial intelligence, or, as it’s commonly branded, A.I. In a 1993 essay, the science fiction author Vernor Vinge warned us that ‘Within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence.’ He went on to say that such a thing would be like the ‘rise of human life on earth.’ Wha…

Ethics is the essential guideline for a just society, promoting, if possible, the good stuff that’s essential to human well-being, and it proposes guiding principles to generate an ethical culture.

Do we choose to live in a house, a flat, or an apartment? Do we wave at our neighbours every morning, like Jim Carrey in The Truman Show, before jaunting off to d…

In the 14th century, a cluster of landowners, churchmen, knights, and aristocrats were pulled together in order to form a regulatory body called the House of Commons, and then, just to make all those swanky henchmen and stand-outs feel they'd got a place in the pecking order, they formed the House of Lords! Today, the House of Lords has around 800 …

I’ve seen first-hand the mental and physical effects of disposable vapes, also known as electronic cigarettes. I have seen a rapid increase in addiction, leading to violence and the early onset of breathing problems. The government has been slow to tackle the issue. I have written to my Member of Parliament, Sir Iain Duncan Smith, to ask what measu…

The ‘British Post Office Scandal’, also known as the ‘Horizon Scandal', has been labelled as, perhaps, the grossest injustice of all time. This is the persecution of post-masters for crimes that they didn’t commit. For those of you not familiar with this, and there are some of you out there who didn’t watch the ground-breaking, ghastly, and powerfu…

Donald Trump is a polarising public figure. As a former president of the United States of America, he brought in policies that many did not agree with but others loved. At one point in time, he had the world at his feet, and then he suddenly fell from grace. He faces a multitude of state and federal indictments, and as of 30th May 2024, he became t…
