I wouldn't wipe my arse with anything printed in the Guardian. It is anti-nuclear be it weapons or power generation. It's happy to support the benefits of nuclear isotopes generated in reactors for therapy use in the NHS though.

As for the toxic radiation plume - how exactly is that going to happen ? The waste is held under water. There are no reactors there to have a catastrophic explosion with material spreading anything high into the atmosphere.

It's no secret that Sellafield is aging and it has a legacy to clean up that will take many decades, it's been covered many times before.

But comparing it to Chernobyl is lazy, scaremongering journalism.

Oh and number of people killed or maimed or who suffered damage in the Windscale fire in the 1950s : zero. There have been projections of deaths due to emissions of the fire but they are purely statistical in nature and would not even register in cancer death numbers.

This is a UK/Australian study. Healthcare is free in those countries at point of delivery.

Don't be a prick and place the instant race card. The cold, hard fact is immigration is running way ahead of the economies ability to absorb them. In Australia we are in a unique position where immigration is pretty well 100% comprised of people who will contribute positively to the economy and society.

If AirBNB is banned those houses and apartments will not magically go into the rental market.

Let's not mention rampant immigration into Australia which is one of the primary drivers.

House builders are going gang busters after COVID just to beat the backlog. On the current population growth statistics Australia cannot build houses fast enough in the next 5 years to get even close to the immigration numbers as we don't have the trades, supplier base or even anywhere for imported tradespeople to even stay. Concrete and brick suppliers would require massive investment NOW to meet future demand but in the current economic climate are very wary.

Even the left's wet dream of the fall of capitalism would not solve the housing problem right now or even in the next 10 years unless they go down the Stalinist approach of liquidating large chunks of the population [which in Australia at the moment according to the left would be the Jews]

The British and French Governments only failed with the investment. Concorde made buckets of money for BA before 9/11, Air France not so much as it wasn't flying on a lucrative route plus BA pulled out the stops to market, promo flights etc.

Air France/French Government decided to stop so Airbus duly fell into line and Maintenance Support was sunsetted. That meant BA could not fly anymore no matter what as Airbus inherited the maintenance support decades earlier.

Ironically Airbus and Rolls Royce still sit on lots of patents especially around the clever engine ramp door systems which was made Concorde really possible.

True but being keen and then stepping away from BA/Air France and their [then] generous salaries, pensions etc would be a big step.

Death sentence for all offences in the UK was removed some decades ago including Treason.

It was never going to happen - Airbus had given notice of maintenance support withdrawal so no Concorde anywhere was going to fly again after that no matter how much money was flying around. Air France and the French Government didn't want to fly them anymore and in BA there was a strong movement with the same opinion although Concorde also had it's vocal supporters.

It's the same story for Branson's stunt : he knew there was zero chance of it happening.

Plus you would need Concorde rated Pilots, Cabin Crew, maintenance engineers : you would need to headhunt from BA or Air France.

Very large German companies don't go in for extortion.

It's beyond dispute that NVidia hired someone who was found guilty of stealing proprietary code from Valeo.

The courts will decide whether NVidia gained any advantage.

Very large companies tend to be VERY protective of their IP and any sniff of IP theft.

And Slashdot continues to post more shite that the Editors can't be bothered to look at.

As opposed to Chairman Dan who had coppers kicking front doors in because someone didn't agree with him.

Meanwhile everyone in the UK, Australia and most of Europe is scratching their heads wondering how you can run up huge debts for medical treatment.

Why would you need a Trauma team for a suspected broken ankle ? One it's an Orthopaedic job and two it's not where near urgent or life threatening.

If the ports don't get knocked out because of a cyber attack they are usually shutdown as the Dockers Union tries to extract even more money for doing f-all.

The Painters and Dockers [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federated_Ship_Painters_and_Dockers_Union] was involved in organised crime and even murder for decades before it disappeared. During WW2 the thievery and refusal to work was so bad the US Military took over ship unloading and threatened to shoot them.
