I’m not a steel industry insider, and I don’t claim any particular expertise in the industry, but what I do know is that leading economies must retain the ability to produce virgin steel. Has anyone considered that the Chinese and Indian owners of our blast furnaces may be closing them down so that the UK is no longer a competitor in the market and will become even more reliant on steel produced in India and China, whose production processes rely on fossil fuel?
We should never have sold our steel industry to foreign interests and must now step in to prevent the dismantling of a strategic asset.

I hadn't seen the resemblance before between Dougal the beloved children's cartoon character from the 1970s & Liz Truss the utterly incompetent former UK PM from 49 days in 2022.
Many thanks to @supertanskiii

This was so moving. Spontaneously stopped off at the London Bridge station organ to play a couple of pieces for the Queen. This lovely security guard, Marcella, asked if I could play Lascia ch'io pianga. Turns out she trained as a singer! ❤️😭

Hugh Grant tweeted a request at activists protesting outside Westminster to play the Benny Hill theme on their loudspeakers; when they did it became the soundtrack for street interviews with leading Tories trying explain the situation to the British people

I see no reason for the NHS to have Diversity Managers.
My GP is Nigerian.
His Locum is Indian.
My Gynaecologist is Chinese.
My Dentist and Physio-therapist are Eastern European.
There's no more diverse place too work in Britain than the NHS.
