The Guardian has an 'explainer' about the India-Pakistan conflict that manages to avoid stating that the border between the countries was originally drawn by an Englishman who had never been to India and signed off on in a hurry by Lord Mountbatten because he had to get back to Britain for a party.

Drax produces electricity by burning wood and trees.
It made record profits of almost £1.1bn last year, received £869m subsidy, £602m in 2023.
Shareholders, execs richer whilst millions can't pay bills.
Corporate welfare is out of control.

It must be awful to be clever, moderate, practical, mature, principled, sensible, thoughtful & adult only to find yourselves making excuses for disabled culling.
While those cranky, falafel munching, childish lefty weirdos were right.

I hate the clocks going backwards and forwards. When I was young, we didn’t even have clocks. If we got hungry, we ate each other. We were poor, but we were happy. Good times. Not that we had time. It hadn’t been invented. We had to make our own time out of string and cholera.
