Interesting. Extracts:

A blood test that can help detect more than 90 per cent of prostate cancer cases is now available in Britain.

Currently, men who visit their GP with symptoms, such as trouble urinating, have a test that is around 55 per cent accurate…

The new test, available privately, can pick up signs of the cancer by identifying abnormalities in gene activity. Patients must fill in a form with their doctor and have a blood sample taken, which will be sent to a lab in the US for testing.

Early trials of the Prostate Screening EpiSwitch found that, when used alongside the standard test, 94 per cent of cases were picked up…

It is not yet available on the NHS and would need to be trialled on a broad range of men to ensure it is accurate, before it can be considered by regulators.

Our thanks to Groan for this. An extract:

Morgan was quick to suggest this was another example of a ‘woke’ corporate company embracing the idea of cancelling men from leading roles, as he suggested Raducanu was misguided to sign up to take part in the campaign. “Of course, we all know, the best way to improve the aspirations of women is by trashing men,” said Morgan sarcastically on his Talk TV show. “As Emma said, women don’t need men at all. She certainly didn’t need men to get to where she is today… except from her father, who manages her career and her five coaches who are all male. “Then there is her agent Max Eisenbud who is very, very good at maximising her income… despite the fact he is a man. “And then in a final twist of this tale of virtue signalling treachery, it turns out the chairman, chief executive and chief financial officer on HSBC’s board of directors are all men too.”

A piece on the BBC website. By using a photograph of a woman, the BBC has unwittingly pointed to a truism. Women take more days off work than men, regardless of whether or not they have children to care for. Surprisingly, the BBC article fails to mention this long-established factoid.

Our thanks to Elizabeth Hobson for this gem (video, 5:37) from 2021, edited by Bearing, an Australian. I’ve just added it to the comedy channel on the Laughing at Feminists website, which has 155 gems.
