The vitamin B in Vegemite is naturally occurring from the yeast process. It’s not added.

- Comment on ‘We’ve made a mistake’: Peter Dutton backs down on work from home policy 2 weeks ago:
Dutton is a hard right conservative. People like him want crack down on everything, wind back social programs like Medicare, get stuck into workers pay and conditions and screw up our relationship with major trading partners (like China). It’s pretty obvious that when he came out with those brain fart policies, he was speaking from the heart. The upshot is that he will revert as soon as he is PM.

- Comment on The Coalition’s attack on the climate authority is a cynical attempt to put ideology over facts – it must be called out | Kylea Tink 1 month ago:
Politicians are generally loose with the truth but the LNP really take it to a nasty level of lying. It all seems to be about winning the election however it really is about setting up an agenda for radical gutting of our society.
It’s wishful thinking but they may have committed a Shorten manoeuvre where they scare the electorate.

So the wafer and wine are irrelevant and this is merely theatre?
- Comment on NASA Ordered to Remove Anything About 'Women in Leadership' From Its Websites: Report 2 months ago:

- Comment on flouride 5 months ago:
Interesting. The article doesn’t actually say that fluoridation in water supplies is dangerous but that some researchers are questioning. Generally code for lack of scientific evidence. It also finds that early studies may have had a flawed basis (pretty much all early studies have been found wanting by later scientists) but doesn’t refute the results.The study mentioned in the article talks about high levels of fluoridation which I assume is in lab tests however these levels are not the case in water supplies.
The correct way forward is more actual science based studies.
