Sounds wonderful - but I think maps are fascinating things.British Library explores 20th century maps in new exhibition
A Soviet plan of Brighton, Tolkien’s Middle-earth and a Guardian spoof are part of Maps and the 20th Century: Drawing the Line
There is much that will stop visitors in their tracks, from the funny to the chilling, and the Brighton map could be a bit of both. “It is incredibly interesting because it is so detailed,” said the show’s lead curator, Tom Harper. “It shows individual houses … it is a wonderful thing. The existence of this map does not mean that the Soviet Union was going to invade Brighton. It is military intelligence – it is just in case.”(Guardian)

We were doing exactly the same thing as the soviets - I had a tour of the Mapping and Charting Establishment at Feltham (oh, the glamour!) when I was a student in the early 90's and they showed us some of the types of material they used to build their intelligence. Much of it was pretty basic, including visitor maps of obscure Chinese cities, sent back in diplomatic bags from around the world.PorFavor wrote:Sounds wonderful - but I think maps are fascinating things.British Library explores 20th century maps in new exhibition

The majority calmly discussed the EU, made a decision, and voted against it. And yet they’ve been ceaselessly defamed as ‘low information’ and ‘racist’ and have watched as their decision has been undermined and held up and relentlessly delegitimised by academics, lawmen and politicians. What must we do to make ourselves heard? To be taken seriously? If the ballot box doesn’t work, maybe it’s time for the streets?

Oh, and there's papers saying that May will call a snap election.
Which she can't.
Do newspapers employ anyone with any legal background now or are they being deliberately dim?

News Release: Churches say Benefit Cap is “damaging” and overwhelmingly targets families with children
Today’s statistics revealed that only 14% of families capped were unemployed and claiming Jobseekers Allowance. The same number of families received benefit because they were assessed as being unable to work due to illness or disability; others are unable to work due to caring responsibilities for children or disabled adults.
NB carers are NOT going to be exempt,only receivers of Carers Allowance,receivers of income support as a carer are not.
