Quotations

"All scientific work is incomplete - whether it be observational or experimental. All scientific work is liable to be upset or modified by advancing knowledge. That does not confer upon us a freedom to ignore the knowledge we already have or postpone the action that it appears to demand at a given time."

Sir Austin Bradford Hill, as quoted at Toxipedia. Submitted by Steve Simon.

Labour's betrayal of British workers.
Nearly every one of 1.67m jobs created
since 1997 has gone to a foreigner

Immigration was at the centre of the
election campaign today as it emerged
that virtually every extra job created
under Labour has gone to a foreign
worker.

Figures suggested an extraordinary 98,5
per cent of 1.67milion new posts where
taken by immigrants.

The ONS figures show the total number of
people in work in both the private and
the public sector has risen from around
25.7million in 1997 to 27.4milllion at the
end of last year, an increase of 1.67million

But the number of workers born abroad
has increased dramatically by 1.64million
from 1.9million to 3.5 million.
