Drax: UK power station owner cuts down primary forests in Canada

  • That is not how statistics work my friend.

  • The American style super manicured laws with sprinklers and all maybe, but your average home lawn that gets cut on average once a month and is the home to all sorts of wild life no way.

  • Tax the crap out of it, make it uneconomical for those who don't need it.

  • They literally kill the soil under them too.

  • I am not even that much of a lefty but I find them exhausting

  • yeah it's all these little things, but it was easy to know what to do, go to the ticket office and ask.

  • This so much, nine times out of ten I know what I want and need and the ticket machine is best. But if I am doing something a bit strange the ticket office is used to make sure I get the right (and cheapest) option.

  • We already have some of the most expensive trains in Europe. I don't think this really a valid argument.

  • I think there is room for both, infract I feel our train stations are woefully understaffed already. The reason there was someone to help you in Japan is they had enough staff to have a ticket office open, and to have people manning the ticket machines during busy times. Especially in the big stations. The current plans say they are to move staff to be "roaming" but it's clear the real plan is to remove all the staff they can.

  • It's a start... but I fear it's just them trying to avoid the first lot of legal challenges

  • Or at least a week where someone actually gets convicted of one of these crimes and faces punishment?

  • just enough shows to keep me for now, but it's close

  • Why is this guy still getting news time?

  • Likewise we should have strict rules on how much of your front garden can be covered, and the amount of permeability that coverage can have.

  • An apology is the least he can do.

  • nothing to see here commoners move along now, business needs to be doing business things.

  • It's been well known for a long time, even just a few trees down a road can make a HUGE difference to the local temperature.
