Stunning footage from earlier today, when the new Kilauea eruption covered the USGS Webcam 3, which is situated in the Halemaʻumaʻu crater near the southern rim of the much larger Kilauea caldera.
This *isn't* what the people of Pompeii saw.
But it's not very far off.

Young people have been at the sharp end of a Brexit they didn't vote for, which has taken away freedoms that other generations took for granted."

The ECHR creates a backstop of legal appeals against changes to UK Laws.
Without it the Government could scrap the State Pension, Minimum Wage, Working Hour Limits and Paid Holiday in 1 day and there is nothing you could do.
This is exactly what Farage would do.
