This is London Calling.

The president was reflecting the very high stakes that they're in play right now, Martha,

when you have modern nuclear power and the leader of that modern nuclear power

willing to use irresponsible rhetoric the way that Mr. Putin has several times

in just the last week or two as well as the high tensions in Ukraine over just the course

of the last few days. So the president I think was accurately reflecting the

fact that the states are very high right now.

Welcome to London Calling with me James Delling Pot and my very good friend Mr Toby Young. I think Toby you're going to have to do the heavy lifting this week, because I'm still feeling a bit a bit ropey. I don't know why.

It's, what have you got like a winter cold?

No, no, I had I'm but I think something else.

My latest theory I my latest obsession is is mercury poisoning. I just as you know they they contrive to kill us every

which way and I think that yeah there are all these kind of ticking time bombs in

in the bodies of those of us who are sensitive to this kind of thing.

How would you have got mercury just from mercury and fish that kind of thing?

amalgam, amalgam fillings.

Oh, okay, yeah it it astonishes me that some of the things that they do for example

they put mercury in your mouth when you know heavy metals and have always been it's not a new thing that mercury is bad for you you think

about the mad hatter the reason the mad hatter was mad was because he was

poisoned by the mercury that gets gets you know in the in the hat-making process yes and

similarly similarly the idea that even now dentists will tell you that fluoride

is a good thing when in fact it's an industrial waste product which would never be allowed anywhere near a human body.

So I don't know, yeah, this is my working theory and I'm I'm not feeling good whatever is calling but that's
