I am going to do it again...it'll make a fool of me,I'm sure of it,but I am going to talk about the current political situation and how it relates to science.Though,by the time you read this,the current political situation might simply encompass some burning embers where the Houses of Parliament once stood.Despite that,here is what I have been wondering-is organ grinder-in-chicf Dominic Cummings good for UK science? I am by-passing the Prime Minister(I mean Boris,but again by the time you read this etc etc...) here because his flappy,confused and babbling pronouncements on science mean I have no choice but to assume he doesn't know what it is.But Mr Cummings-that Ihomas Cromwell of our age-well,quite the enigma isn't he.Seemingly derided by all sides for many reasons,but 1 suspect that if nothing else he is a man with a plan.What that plan is,well therein lay an incredible amount of room for manoeuvre.But whatever it is,science and technology appear to play a big part.
