The BBC has run a story claiming UK spring temperatures are up 1.8?C. It's alarmist agitprop straight from a Green Blob press release and it doesn't check out when you look at the facts, says Chris Morrison.

The Javaad Alipoor Company is a theatre company with a woke "nine-point manifesto that drives everything we do". Inevitably, the Arts Council is stuffing it with taxpayers' cash. Why do we fund this crap?

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Sunday April 06, 2003 14:30author by Kevin-Scott Report this post to the editors

An American convoy containing Kurds and American special forces is bombed by an American aircraft.

John Simpson was standing 10 -12 feet away from where the bomb hit and broadcast the incident by satellite phone moments after the attack.

He was injured, bleeding through an ear reporting on a “scene from hell” as he counted 10 bodies and 8-10 vehicles burning.

US military claimed: "Coalition aircraft were conducting close air support missions at the time, and were in coordination with ground forces,"
