"a public realm that is saturated with the reality of climate change, with the prospect of hotter days, of droughts and hosepipe bans, floods and food shortages.To want this is not alarmist: it is both accurate and helpful." No doubt this will materialise, but how bad will things have to get first?

Huh? A leak is an unauthorized disclosure of information, typically to a sympathetic media outlet - sufficiently high profile and an inquiry ensues, "who leaked this information?" This was an official announcement on the Prem's own website

When an org like the Premier League drops the word "sham" in an official announcement about one of its highest-profile clubs (multiple times!) I think we can presume they're pretty confident in the findings of the commission

I would encourage everybody to read the document. Despite some redactions, it's not long or complex. And it is extremely damning. From the moment they bought the club, City's owners implemented a scheme to cheat on a massive scale. resources.premierleague.pulselive.com/premierleagu...

The Top 100 TV shows list - I understand that it’s a US paper, so it’s going to have at least a big English -language bias, but I fail to see how you can talk about 21st-century TV without including The Killing (original Danish version).

What on earth is happening?
  This had become the new normal. RNLI crew members had been forced to take their permits off their cars after their tyres have been repeatedly slashed. Most of them have been pilloried at the school gates or turned away from local pubs. One man who worked in search and rescue had been beaten unconscious and hospitalised, recognised for TV interviews he had done.

Totally agree, activating e.g. the air-con on a new car requires way more switching of concentration than good old analogue controls, & then the "advanced driver-assistance system" kicks in and tells me off!

I think on quite a basic level "you must not use a touchscreen device while operating your vehicle" was ruined as an instruction once "operating your vehicle" required using a touchscreen.

So, been thinking about this on & off since yesterday - we're talking Robson, Cantona, Schmeichel, Keane, Rooney et al, yeah? (To limit ourselves to players purchased rather than developed) If so, who's the best "recent" example of a "Manchester United" player bought, Van Persie?
