An old man is walking along a river with a bucket of fish, when a game warden stops him and asks, "Do you have a license to catch those fish?" The old man says, "No sir, I don't. These are my pet fish."  "Pet fish?!" the warden replies, skeptical. "How is that?"  The man

There are moments when a country is forced to look directly at the consequences of its own fear. The Nottingham murders are one of those moments. An inquiry has now heard that Valdo Calocane was not sectioned after a violent psychotic episode because professionals were concerned

@HywelDdaHB is perpetrating a great evil upon the people of Pembrokeshire in the further removal of accessible essential hospital services. They are rewriting history and gaslighting us, but their proposals will cost lives. We need to be cut free from this coercive board.

People walk away from wrecks saying “thank God I was in a Volvo”. No one walks away from a car saying “thank God I was in a Skoda - we almost left granny behind!”

When you switch off my wife’s car, it gives you the message “Goodbye, [name], got everything? Mobile phone? Everyone out of the car?” Can modern cars get any more insufferably fucking irritating? A beep if you’ve left the lights on is helpful. This is just insulting.

1866: Cotton seeds are agricultural waste. After extracting cotton fiber, farmers are left with millions of tons of seeds containing oil that's toxic to humans. Gossypol, a natural pesticide in cotton, makes the oil inedible. The seeds are fed to cattle in small amounts or simply

California's Central Valley produces 80% of the world's almonds. Each almond requires 3.2 gallons of actual irrigation water to grow. Not rainfall. Actual tap water pumped from aquifers. One gallon of almond milk requires 162 gallons of irrigation water. Compare that to dairy

The UK Labour Party my forensic take, no varnish, no mercy Let me be crystal clear from the outset, the modern Labour Party is not a workers’ party. It’s a managerial wing of the blob wearing a red rosette as a game. I grew up being told Labour was for people like us, grafters,
