Revealed: the free-market groups helping the tobacco industryMore than 100 free-market thinktanks from North America to Europe and south Asia took positions helpful to the tobacco industry or accepted donations, Guardian investigation shows Smoking sucks. Its nasty, smelly, offensive to most others & I hate it. Knowing all this, I have struggled to quit since I started at 12. Anything that controls your body like nicotine I wouldnt wish on anyone & encouraging others to take it up is amoral at best. The tobacco industry is a great analogy for everything that's wrong with the world

Britain's nuclear industry is falling inexorably into Chinese handsIt was November 1985 and thousands of British coal miners had recently returned to work when Margaret Thatcher’s helicopter touched down at Capenhurst in Cheshire. Robin_Pag Couldn't make it up. ALL governments since 1945 should be tried for treason for giving EVERYTHING away for the benefit of corporates but none of the public of this country. Putrid. Robin_Pag With Huawei, it was just the network switches, and thus vast amounts of sensitive information in the hands of another power. With nuclear energy, it's a whole new level. The wonders of capitalism. Invented by the anglo-saxons, perfected by the Chinese.
