France is a NATO member.

Looks like Dr Micheal Mosley has gone missing in Greece. Fingers crossed they find him.

Crazy. Hope he is alright.

Cameras on your bike are a good way to get evidence.
I got front and back in my car after an asshole sideswiped me and took off.

Tory scum dishonours are brave lads:

Despite the content being terrible, that's a lovely looking chart

Yes, that's nice data visualisation.
Don't think it'll help with the just weather crowd.

+1 on the nice chart.

I don't understand how people can think a hundred years of pumping ever more noxious fumes into the atmosphere can't possibly have effected the climate...

Cameras on your bike are a good way to get evidence

But you need them on your body for the assholes who steal your bike

Tour of Britain team bikes stolen. "Lifeplus-Wahoo riders said all 14 of their Ribble Endurance SLR bikes were taken from their mechanic's van as they slept at the Macdonald Hill Valley Hotel in Whitchurch, Shropshire" https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9xxng9w1zjo

Sadly I have resorted to this.

I was riding with a go pro strapped to my chest for a long time, then realised the hassle of dealing with the battery wasn’t worth it unless it was a special occasion like certain holidays or festival time when people might be drinking more, or bad weather.

Plus there’s some stupid police rule about needing video covering 2 minutes pre and post incident. Like, wtaf, what sort of rule or wording is that?

Beautiful design. I’m irked at how the headlines aren’t really describing what the graph is saying. Records haven’t just been broken, they’ve being absolutely smashed for 12 months straight.

I never went anyway without the cyclic or however it's spelt front and back. Was a great for this.

That graph is absolutely terrifying

But not terrifying enough to stop the production of petrol/diesel, turn off coal and nuclear power stations worldwide, change agricultural practices and stop rivers and seas.

Even when it’s 50 degrees here, the question won’t be how can we fix the environment it’ll be can we turn the air con up?

Even when it’s 50 degrees here, the question won’t be how can we fix the environment it’ll be can we turn the air con up?

Also: why is food increasingly scarce and expensive? Why are petrol prices up? Can we stop wildfires in urban areas?

And of course a chorus of (expletives) will blame the Labour Party for all of the above.

nuclear power stations worldwide

I thought these weren’t as problematic as gas or coal burning facilities?

They are fine as long as you have the money and expertise to store nuclear waste securely for hundreds of years.

Bye Felicia.

Yay

Is it really that good?

Under a liquidation, the families, who have not yet received any of the payment owed by Jones, are less likely to see any money

^ beat me to it. It just sounds like he’s hell-bent on ensuring the families see no money.
