    Doxed

    On the subject of stupid computer programs… Google Street surveys Brook Street, London W1 and at number 25 – the Handel Hendrix House – blurs the face on an advertising poster of world famous rock guitar mega star Jimmy Hendrix

    Is it ‘cos he is black…?

    Nope, bewigged eighteenth century George Frideric Handel, German-British Baroque composer, gets the same pixelated treatment.

    Legislation laid today puts the UK on the path to become the first major economy to set net zero emissions target in law.

    12 June 2019

    Prime Minister Theresa May said:

    As the first country to legislate for long-term climate targets, we can be truly proud of our record in tackling climate change. We have made huge progress in growing our economy and the jobs market while slashing emissions.

    Now is the time to go further and faster to safeguard the environment for our children. This country led the world in innovation during the Industrial Revolution, and now we must lead the world to a cleaner, greener form of growth.

    Standing by is not an option. Reaching net zero by 2050 is an ambitious target, but it is crucial that we achieve it to ensure we protect our planet for future generations.

    Opinion Polls form opinion, they do not find opinion… HA HA AHAHA

    Comment ““51% of Brits say restoring freedom of movement an acceptable price for rejoining the EU, which drops down to only 31% when it is accurately called “removing limits on immigration”.
    And this is why Rejoiniac polls are bogus, because the questions are slanted to prompt the desired answer.”
