Yet another statistic to add to the grim toll, just a few hundred yards from where I live, we heard the Air Ambulance circling overhead last night but didn't know it was for this. RIP...
The killings are unbelievable. I remember in the 1970's when there was a fatal stabbing (football fan) during a fight. It was a huge event. People talked about it for years. Now it happens every day. That is not progress
The Labour Party don't know how lucky they are to have people the calibre of Trevor Philips as a member, he would have made a far better Mayor than the virtue-signalling muppet currently in post, but it seems independent free-thinkers are on their hit-list, file under 'You couldn't make it up'...
In Cabinet, you have to toe the line or resign. In the party, members should be afforded free speech. Not in Comrade Corbyn's party.
How is Dom getting on with his call for random super-intelligent oddballs who just happen to always be far right cranks to shake up politics?
US agrees to take a bite of beef exports Monday, 9 March 2020 Beef from the UK could soon be heading to America after government officials agreed the next step of an export deal worth around £66 million over the first five years. The US has today agreed equivalence of standards on the UK’s disease control measures following a three-week inspection last summer. It means that after the final administrative details are carried out, beef can be shipped to the US. It comes after an ongoing process of negotiations between the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB) in partnership with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), APHA, FSA, Quality Meat Scotland (QMS) and Hybu Cig Cymru – Meat Promotion Wales (HCC) and other organisations including UKECP. The inspections in August 2019 included tours of five beef sites, four pork and lamb, as well as several laboratories. It came hot on the heels of a visit by delegates from the US sheep industry, organised by AHDB. AHDB International Market Development Director Dr Phil Hadley said: “This is another fantastic boost for industry. Today’s announcement is a crucial step in our ambitions to gain market access for our beef and lamb, to go with our existing pork trade, to the all-important US market. “We have worked collaboratively with industry and government to get this agreement and we will continue to work to get this partnership over the line and to see our products in the US market. Once the final administrative details are carried out, commercial trade will begin.” The inspection in the summer was part financed from the £2 million fund of AHDB red meat levies ring-fenced for collaborative projects which is managed by Britain’s three meat levy bodies: AHDB, HCC and QMS. The fund is an interim arrangement while a long-term solution is sought on the issue of levies being collected at point of slaughter in England for animals which have been reared in Scotland and Wales.
please log in to view this image Captain Cheese @Haggisontoast 6 years ago Salmond told us oil would be $113, this morning it nearly bottomed at $31 and he’s in court facing multiple charges of sexual assault. Thank goodness it was a NO vote #dodgedabullet twice.
The SNationalistP are a nasty party with some twisted agenda. I also remember the @@@@ he used to talk. Another one for the history basket
He's got about 10 women making allegations against him and some of them senior. He'll be lucky to get off this. The women are all over the age of consent, so we can be confident Prince Andrew isn't involved
mmm not happy the government won this vote today. I wouldn't want Huawei to be involved with us this much. still they only won by 24 votes and there is another chance in the future.
Bobby I know you obviously don't like Boris but you seem to complain about everything he does good or bad. I am just stating that this is a wrong decision.
