| Sugar industry withheld research effects of sucrose 50 years ago, study claims Posted: 21 Nov 2017 11:41 AM PST Researchers say negative health impacts of sucrose could have been combated sooner had research been released – but industry bodies dispute the findings Sugar's demise from childhood staple to public enemy can be seen everywhere. Chocolate bars are shrinking, sugary drinks are set to be taxed and our recommended daily sugar intake has been slashed in half. But the battle against sugar might have begun sooner if the industry hadn't kept secrets to protect its commercial interests, according to new findings. In 1967, when scientists were arguing over the link between sugar consumption and increased risk of heart disease, researchers now claim that the International Sugar Research Foundation (ISRF) withheld findings that rats that were fed a high-sugar diet had higher levels of triglycerides (a fat found in the blood) than those fed starch. In a move researchers from the University of California at San Francisco have compared to the tobacco industry's self-preservation tactics, the foundation stopped funding the project.

"We're working on detecting this kind of scenario ... and de-ranking those kinds of sites," Schmidt said, in response to a question at an event in Halifax, Canada. "It's basically RT and Sputnik. We're well aware and we're trying to engineer the systems to prevent it." Continue reading... |

The actor and Oscar-winning director, who has faced repeated damaging allegations of racist and misogynistic behaviour, said: "Things got shaken up a little bit and there is a lot of light being thrown into places where there were shadows and that is kind of healthy. It's painful, but I think pain is a precursor to change." Continue reading... |

| Did Vote Leave commit a crime over its funding? Democracy demands to know | Jolyon Maugham Posted: 22 Nov 2017 01:00 AM PST The Electoral Commission must urgently and robustly investigate the question of whether or not the 'will of the people' was bought Late last year, the Electoral Commission started an investigation into a striking set of circumstances. In February 2016 Steve Baker MP, lobbying for Vote Leave to be designated the "official" leave campaign, sent a round robin email asking recipients to support it, because it claimed to have found a loophole in the spending rules. "It is open to the Vote Leave family to create separate legal entities each of which could spend £700k: Vote Leave will be able to spend as much money as is necessary to win the referendum," he wrote. But Baker – now a minister in the Department for Exiting the European Union (DExEU) – got it wrong. The law that protects our democracy from capture appears to make this behaviour illegal: when a sockpuppet signs your cheques, the spending still counts as yours. Continue reading... |
| Brian Eno and Roger Waters scorn Nick Cave's 'principled stand' to play in Israel Posted: 21 Nov 2017 04:45 PM PST Australian labelled 'naive' and 'arrogant' after he accused pro-boycott campaigners of trying to bully and censor musicians High-profile artists including Brian Eno, Roger Waters and Ken Loach have hit back at Nick Cave after the musician defended his tour of Israel as a "principled stand" against people trying to "bully" and "censor" musicians. Eno, Waters and Loach are among a group of artists who have joined the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement, a global campaign that aims to increase pressure on Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories, and lobbies artists, academics and businesses to refrain from engaging with or touring in Israel. Elvis Costello and Lauryn Hill are among the high-profile artists who have cancelled shows following pressure from the movement. Continue reading... |
| Robert Mugabe’s departure ushers in a heady new era for Zimbabwe | Knox Chitiyo Posted: 22 Nov 2017 02:02 AM PST Zimbabwe is experiencing an almost unprecedented convergence. Mnangagwa is set to be the new president – and millions will tune in to hear his first speech The ecstatic scenes said it all – Zimbabweans around the world are celebrating the resignation of Robert Mugabe as president. In January 1980, hundreds of thousands of Zimbabweans thronged Zimbabwe Grounds stadium in Highfields township, Harare, to welcome Mugabe back from exile. In March 1980, with reggae icon Bob Marley and Britain's Prince Charles in attendance, thousands filled Rufaro Stadium to witness the handover from Rhodesia to the new nation of Zimbabwe. Thirty-seven years later, the largest crowds Harare has ever witnessed flooded the streets once again; not to welcome Mugabe in, but to see him out. One simple, taut phrase summed up the day's events: "This is our second independence day." How did it come to this? Continue reading... |

| 'I fear a German Trump': Merkel's struggles lead to thoughts of what next Posted: 21 Nov 2017 09:00 PM PST Some in Berlin see Angela Merkel as the calm hand that Germany needs and are unsettled by the prospect of new elections Petra Leitholdt was far from enthusiastic about the prospect of new elections in Germany. "It's just a waste of time, energy and resources," the 51-year-old said, standing on the bustling market square of Hermannplatz in the Neukölln district of Berlin. "I for one wouldn't vote any differently than I did on September 24. I weighed up my options then and would make the same decision if there was another vote. But I think Angela Merkel will come out on top again anyway, although maybe strengthened." Continue reading... |

| Chinese censor feted by Mark Zuckerberg is accused of corruption Posted: 21 Nov 2017 07:17 PM PST Lu Wei, powerful and flamboyant former head of China's Cyberspace Administration, is accused of 'serious disciplinary violations' The former top official for internet censorship in China, who travelled to the heart of Silicon Valley to promote China's vision for the web, is under investigation for corruption, the Communist party's anti-corruption agency has said.

| 'Shocking' political rhetoric on refugees aims to poison debate, UN official warns Posted: 21 Nov 2017 11:00 PM PST Special representative Louise Arbour attacks politicians' anti-migrant language and lack of awareness on issues such as remittances, worth $429bn in 2016 The language used to describe people caught up in the migration crisis has been attacked by a special representative of the UN as "deliberately invidious" and aimed at poisoning public debate. Using terms such as "illegal" rather than "irregular" migrants, or "hordes, waves and swarms" rather than simply "large numbers", conveniently obscures the vulnerabilities that come from being a foreigner, said Louise Arbour, the UN secretary general's special representative for international migration.

| I escaped war in Syria and am now free to dream – but other kids aren't so lucky | Bilal Rwaeh Posted: 21 Nov 2017 08:28 AM PST On World Children's Day, the Guardian invited a young Syrian refugee now living in the UK to tell us the stories we should be covering. Unsurprisingly, Bilal's focus was on refugees, and the need for children to catch up on missed education I am Bilal and I am from Syria. I have been here one year. When I came to the UK I couldn't speak English and it was very important to connect with people. On our journey from Syria we went into Turkey illegally with no passport. It was very dangerous because we didn't know where we were going and on the way there were four mountains. Many families lost their children in this way. Children walk more quickly than adults and sometimes the Turkish army would catch the parents or the children separately and people would get lost. My family were very lucky – my mother, father and two brothers – that we all stayed together. I knew nobody in Turkey but we had to leave Syria. Continue reading... |
