 The article discusses how a Labour candidate, Huw Thomas, apologized for telling people to throw "Tipp-Ex" over cars displaying England flags during the 2006 World Cup. He suggested that it was a casual racist comment and not meant to be taken seriously. However, his apology sparked a debate about racism and immigration in Wales. Research found that hugging can lower blood pressure, reduce stress, and boost oxytocin levels. A study also showed that after just ten seconds of hugging, levels of various hormones changed. Another study found that hugs can lower cortisol levels and increase feelings of trust and relaxation. The article concludes by mentioning that what we do with our iPads is important and that we should use them wisely.
