The weekend approaches and so a new one of this to take us off into the wild blue yonder!

    A low key look by the BBC’s Gavin Hewitt at probably one of the most important and interesting questions in politics at the moment: Europe braces for first EU-wide vote since 2008 crash In many countries this will be a referendum on the European project. Many voters will have the chance to support parties disenchanted with Brussels and all its powers. The last few years have seen the … Continue reading →

    A couple of Tweets from Roger that shed new light on ‘science’ and certainty:         So Roger thinks ‘expert groups’ may be lying to us about just how certain they are about their projections…due to the politics…and Roger himself objects to claims of ‘certainty’ or over confidence in ‘the numbers’….though not when economist Stern tells us we are all going to die in 100 months … Continue reading →

Regional daily loses thousands of sales with gay kiss splash and then… Gay Birmingham teacher quits primary school after parents complain
