Balance isn't the aim of journalism. Accuracy is.
As we can see with full horror now, those who were neutral about Putin weren't being objective.

The elected representatives of 27 EU countries applaud Zelensky (video link)
I reported from this place for 30 years and never saw it speak with one, very loud voice like this before. Putin has done what no one else achieved - brought the whole of our continent together, united

β‘οΈZelensky: A state that commits war crimes against civilians can't be a member of the UN Security Council.

Right now, Putin is plunging Europe into its darkest time since 1939. Any government hoping to sit this out is naΓ―ve. Donβt repeat mistakes of the past. Hit Russia with severe sanctions now. Help Ukraine with military and financial support. Together we can #StopRussianAggression.

No idea which motive drove him.
That needs sorting in own right.
But a thought:
Publication bias is equivalent to multiple testing cherry picking
Remove ephasis on "significance" so long as study is well powered =
Less bias, less motive, fairer field.

Thoughts: @UKLabour. Remove JC; interim leader Keir Starmer or Emily Thornberry; keep positive NHS policies; loose blind idealism [would you press button]; more women; new polices pragmatic and compassionate; take centre & left; not New Labour or Old Labour; loose Seumas Milne.
Final hour and a bit; time to coat up, head out, and hit up the polling stations. Love a good vote, hope you do too :)

Also all UK nationals loose EU citizenship, the hard-boarder in Ireland may return, adult social care providers likely hit hard. Iβve been won over - Brexit looks great [unless you need medicine, dislike delays, like choice]! [9/9]
7 - βCertain types of fresh food supply will decreaseβ. [This will] βreduce availability and choice β¦ and increase priceβ. βLow income groups will be disproportionately affected by any price rises in food or fuelβ [8/9]
6 - βThe reliance of medicines and medical productsβ supply chains on the short straits crossing make them particularly vulnerable to severe extended delays; three-quarters of medicines come via the short straitsβ; [7/9]
5 - βThere will likely be significant electricity price increases for consumersβ; [6/9]
4 - βIt is likely that delays [to travelling citizens] will occur for UK arrivals and departures at EU airports and portsβ; [5/9]
