I think the fact that it is now being commonly referred to as 'Osborne's punishment budget' has put paid to any vestiges of credibility and ambition he may have still had.

A UK shale gas company is considering dumping waste water from fracking in the sea, emails from the company show.

Ineos, which owns the Grangemouth refinery and holds 21 shale licences, many in the north-west, North Yorkshire and
the east Midlands, has said it wants to become the biggest player in the UK’s nascent shale gas industry.

Dangerous activities such as this must be stopped by law and leadership must protect life, land, air and water. I must insist. It's not
idealogical, my dictatorial pronouncement, it's based upon the laws of physics. The activity described in this article is too dangerous to
allow.

Mr Riots has taken to buying 4 tinnies of lager for £2 from Aldi. Surprisingly it actually tastes pretty good. If this weather continues we might develop a habit - good to know it won't bust our bank.

I don't often drink but sometimes a good ale is perfect after walking or hiking. I get sleepy, literally fall asleep, if I have more than a half.

Not too sunny today - but nice and warm (other people call it hot). I love it! Thanks for asking.

Edited to add -

It needs to be in the mid-upper 80s(F) for me to consider it hot. And I love that, too (more). At the risk of putting everyone off their food and\or drink - I like to sweat. Or perspire. Or glow (that last one always sound a bit unhealthily radioactive).

Agree about the heat. I don't warm up until it's 74. Mid eighties and I might perspire gently.

I've been wearing a cardigan, too (a lightish one, though). And socks. Still, it's a lot better than it has been. It's warm enough for the cat to have taken off her cardie (figuratively speaking). You can tell when they're content with the temperature, can't you? I don't imagine she'd like it as hot as I do.

Mid 80s? Are you sure about that? I find 16C (60F) is T-shirt and shorts weather, 20C (68F) hot and anything over 25C (77F) unnecessary. It's obviously a lot warmer down your way.

It doesn't often get that hot - but I do like it if it does. I used to live abroad so that probably explains it.

60F? That's still winter to me!

I hate celsius. Never really know where I am with it.. 18c in Fahrenheit, is less than 65 degrees.
