well said Sir.
This is not news, and the 'report' makes it clear that the BBC are not making any accusations of wrongdoing.
This is an advert for tonight's Panorama, disguised as news. The BBC do this a lot...
and in the interests of fairness, I have the opposing view:
I don't like granite, gneiss, or rock of any kind as a work surface. Its prime disadvantage is that it's very hard, so you have to be...
I do both- I have an Echo-only subscription to Amazon Music Unlimited (£3.99 a month) and Apple Music, which works fine. If I'm honest Apple works better for me. Just say "Alexa, pair" and it finds...
Don't automatically fall for the DE evangelism. I did, and I wished I hadn't. Some love them. I don't. I don't even like the Mach 3 as the blade head follows the handle, it isn't planted on the end...
I try to read this blog every day. Today's entry is about a horologist and clocks. I know this is a watch site, but it interested me, so it may interest others. The rest of the blog is a good read as...
Google Ventile jackets. Cotton, so quieter, and age nicely.
Most probably bought by Philippe Stern. In which case it's a sensible purchase for marketing purposes. His company, so he protects his brand, obtains free press coverage, readers will infer...

singers who... just sing. No silly Joe Cocker-style facial histrionics, please, just sing the...
I have owned a 1964 Series 2, with an SD1 v8 engine, and an almost pristine lightweight, and helped restore a few series ones. I can honestly say Land Rovers are the crappest vehicles ever. I have...
I'd use boiled linseed oil rather than Danish or linseed, as the latter types take ages to go off. Boiled linseed will be much faster to cure- important if you plan on more than one coat... The...
When you re-insulate, make sure you put in a moisture barrier on the 'hot' side, otherwise all the nice moist air from the house will mean condensation on the rafters, and this will rot them. I've...
Ok then... Depends to an extent on where you're staying, as Brum is still a little more spread out than you'd think.
Mailbox: Marco Pierre White's steakhouse at the top of the Cube: fantastic views,...
Very good. I got it even if nobody else did...;-)
I think there are a number of improvements that can be made to both the network and the users. It's a huge national resource that needs more efficient use.

My experience has been that the body will overcome the virus eventually. I believe it's possible to aid the process by convincing oneself of their imminent banishment by folk cures (rub one with a...
It's behaviour like this that was a large part of the decision I made to sell my (inherited) Rolex.
Ironic.
I would echo this- your pension is the best savings plan you have. As such, you should be smashing the sh** out of it. Increase your contributions to the most you can afford. You can always reduce...
Yes, I think you're right. I'm not up to speed on Datejust 2s. I'm not even sure whether the newer ones have the fluted bezel as a rule, whether it's a different ref for the plain one, or what... In...
Apologies if I've transgressed; I'm reluctant to post the price on this part of the forum as it's not the sales forum.
Just trying to help the OP. If you can let me know a better way, please let...
If you insulate, also add a moisture barrier, or you'll get lots of lovely damp on the cold side. Always add the vapour/moisture barrier on the 'hot' side. The govt. telling people to add wodges of...
sorry- messed up the link, and seem unable to edit. You should be able to navigate to the site with the text that's there... apologies!

Brad Pitt, tank warfare at the latter stages of WW2. Very, very good. Highly recommended.
