amazon was fined for putting cargos of lithium batteries in hold of normal passenger aircraft .

Here in Scunthorpe the Brexit calamity continues.

- The Steelworks took on extra workers (not a surprise when many current workers are old)
- The chicken plant is expanding to take on another 300 workers.

Ah @Tomo I see the enviros dodgy claims about the power station deaths were tacked right on the end of that BBC article.

More Snippets from The Times : Amber Rudd was director of offshore firms 1998-2000
Greens caught Red Handed
Caroline Lucas advertsied for a press officer
Trouble was the salary was less than the £10/hour which is Green party minimum wage policy
..Solved by cutting the hours from 37.5/week to 34.5/week
- The KenLoach film aboutCorbyn (Youtube) is dull
- Aaronovitch is praising Merkel for taking million refugees and therefore taking pressure off other countries .

@Tomo Re:Aberthaw power station ..apologies I must have skimmed and missed the hype
Times : page 5 quotes RWE saying from now on we'll use mostly foreign coal ...(will they be forgiven their 7 years of lawbreaking ? I guess so..NoX rate was double allowed limit..Well that is not so bad, cos you could have a power station double the size which complied ..but in effect you'd have the same level of NoX pollution.
Course bringing coal from Australia, Russia USA will use a lot of dirty bunker fuel.

Ross Lea & ACK

The likes of George Soros and Jeremy Grantham have been banking on Green Blob issues. If they lose out financially, who cares?

ACK
Please don't start me on the bloated and corrupt world banking system. It seems Soros is trying to influence the US Presidential Election after failing to win the UK referendum for the Remain side.

Don't want to push this further but human incompetence caused both the disaster and economic woes. What would have happened if Lehman Brothers had been rescued like Lloyds and RBS? Who can tell?

Was it the Herald ? I got my Free Enterprises mixed up ? I was in Dover at the time in fact the person due to buy my house died in the disaster.

ACK

The spirit disaster was cause by human error, by not ensuring the bow door was secure before going to full speed ahead nothing to do with the vessels design. Similar to reducing the interest rate when there was not need. A pragmatic wait and see would have been much better.

ACK SandyS & Ross Lea

If Global Warming is to be likened to a Super Tanker, Hillary has abandoned ship. The Guardian is in a panic, because nobody cares.

I do not care too much for Trump either, but given Hillary's support for Green Blob destruction of economies, and their shared love of personal financial self betterment, Hillary's position looks a bit shaky.
