Shelagh has just had someone talking sense about sugar and artificial sweeteners just now. I hope people take on board what he said about aspartame. Dreadful stuff.

Really.......perhaps some ears are attuned to only hearing what they want to.
I didn't listen to the whole show, but heard plenty of it, even when he was doing the "Marriage/Living together" debate..........I don't think he can stop himself. He was quite flippant and off hand with callers. Gobber only ever seems to discuss the following; Trump 'Farridge' Brexit Marriage Drugs I seem to remember him jumping on the paedo train a while ago and being a big supporter of Labours Tom Watson and giving a lot of airtime to the alleged establishment paedo rings. That particular theme got a lot of coverage, rightly so........until the wheels came off when it was realised that the accuser 'Nick' was not a credible source but a 'certifiable loony tune' as one commentator described him. Interesting though that Gobber gave a minuscule fraction of airtime to the Pakistani grooming gangs in Rochdale, Bradford & Birmingham involving thousands of abused white girls by hundreds of men..............can't think why? Brian said the the rape gangs in Rochdale were the fault of the BNP (do they still exist?) for crying wolf too many times. I know, great journalism. |

Maybe he meant that the number didn't lower his wages. He is, after all, a man who moved to an 85% white enclave as his previous Kilburn abode was too near a council estate. I wonder what it is that threatens him about living in a diverse and multicultural area? Interesting Shelagh and Stig both live in nearby Richmond Park. Sounds like a real haven for today's champagne socialist, metropolitan liberal elite about town. Avoid at all costs.
How did Farage get on last night? I'm rather Faraged out at the moment so will be listening to Iain Lee over on TalkRadio from 10pm this week. I heard a bit of Farage, he was defending the UKIP point of view quite vigorously

You need to watch that predictive text. Earlier it corrected me twice wanting me to say ponder your tour instead of Pont de la Tour the restaurant. Still have trouble getting that wants to say long instead of Pont.
I have tried to go into settings on this tablet to see if I can get rid of it but can't. |

Predictive text is a real pain, it's a shame that it can't get rid of those awful Americanisms that have infiltrated the beautiful English language with such nonsense as;
“Can I get” hearing a 'millennial' ordering a Starbucks coffee is especially annoying “My Bad” when making a mistake and offering a dismissive apology “Least worst option” tell them that their most best option is learning grammar To put a list into alphabetical order is to "alphabetize it" "You do the Math” Math? It's MATHS “Post truth” thanks for offering this one today Bangles, are we talking about my postmans truthfulness or how my garden fence is supported? |

Hilarious piece by the Hopkins. The humour deficient shouldn't bother. You won't get it.

What was said?
There is some research (he did not say this but I have read it) that with people with MS for instance can make symptoms worse. He also spoke about corn syrup used quite a lot in the US. This has been thought to be contributory to obesity. Fructose is also not a good idea although in it's natural state it is a fruit sugar. |

Basically sugar in small quantities is better for you than the chemical sweeteners. He mentioned aspartame which has been researched as being bad all round to put it simply and it is in many products not just diet drinks.

A 1996 report suggested a link between aspartame and an increase in the number of diagnosed brain tumours. However, the study had very little scientific basis and later studies showed that aspartame was in fact safe to consume. http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Goodfood/...aspartame.aspx |

Iain Dale is an excellent broadcaster. He is balanced, informed and sympathetic to callers when need be and strident where necessary. I'm a big fan. He has impeccable contacts and has actually met many of the politicians he talks to and about. A lot better than another presenter who makes a virtue of not actually meeting politicians but pulling out all the stops for the fat tongued Mockney buffoon that is Jamie Oliver. Long may Mr Dale continue.
I'm afraid I will be switching to Mr Whale on TalkRADIO at 7. I'm a fan of Clive but he seems straight jacketed by LBCs strict agenda. |

Sadly, yes. Some of us think it's highly entertaining. He spent most of the hour I heard describing what sounds like his unhealthy food choices and condemning celebs who give advice on exercise and diet. He's got Tom Daley coming in today to record an In Conversation plugging his new book on healthy eating!

Hmm .. I put sweetner pills in my tea instead of sugar or if I am in a cafe their own sweeteners ! Like salt I never add to however it is presented.
