Labour Election Petition Struck Out

The good news is that Labour's Election petition in Aston against the Lib Dem by-election victors was "struck out" at 10am today.

What this means is that the Judges decided that even if Labour could prove the allegations that they had made that this would not have resulted in them winning an election petition.

The fact is that Labour's petition was merely a copy of the one I wrote without the Wyrlie incident. Not only that, but they haven't paid me a copyright fee.

Amazing, isn't it? When anybody else raises a suggestion about election malpractice, the failure of that claim is 'good news.'

I would have thought that somebody with your apparent commitment to combatting electoral fraud would have been more supportive.

Oh hang on a sec - the LibDems won in Aston didn't they?

Are you sure that their campaign was without blemish?

Its the long genes that stop working

People who read my blog will be aware that I have for some time argued that most (if not all) diseases of aging are caused by cells not being able to produce enough of the right proteins. What happens is that certain genes stop functioning because of a metabolic imbalance. I was, however, mystified as to why it was always particular genes that stopped working. Recently, however, there have been three papers produced: Aging is associated with a systemic length-associated transcriptome imbalance Age- or lifestyle-induced accumulation of genotoxicity is associated with a generalized shutdown of long gene transcription and Gene Size Matters: An Analysis of Gene Length in the Human Genome From these it is obvious to see that the genes that stop working are the longer ones. To me it is therefore obvious that if there is a shortage of nuclear Acetyl-CoA then it would mean that the probability of longer Genes being transcribed would be reduced to a greater extent than shorter ones.
