## Resource

As the US keeps 'negotiating with itself' (Iran's words...) we ask tentatively what impact the ongoing conflict will have on our wallets, purses and digital wealth stores. Plus, a look at new research revealing perhaps too much about the sort of people who are actual *members* of a political party. Spoiier alert: they're outnumbered handsomely by the number of criminals out there, not that there's any link between politics and crime of course. No siree. And, of course, Naomi, Alex and Kenny bring you your regular prescription of glee courtesy of Wokey Dokey, and Grin And Share It.
