The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

offsite link Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

PESTICIDES AND PEOPLE

category international | environment | news report author Wednesday June 18, 2003 18:28author by ollie - katalyzer Report this post to the editors

SHOCK HORROR! CHEMICALS DESIGNED TO ATTACK THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM OF LIVING CREATURES ARE ALSO B

A new report is out, today, which links pesticides and human health/sperm count.

USA Today claims that this is the first time a link has been made.

It isn't the first time, actually ,there are a pletora of pieces of research done on problems with pesticides.

I could link to USA Today, but instead ,check http://www.panna.org , and the story is on the homepage.

In particular, for one of many other, older, pieces of research on the dangers of pesticides, check out this piece of research:

http://www.panna.org/resources/panups/panup_20030131.dv.html

Which outlines, to quote, 'concentrations of pesticide metabolites six times lower than children eating conventional produce'.

Many others also on the independent Irish-maintained site:
