Me either! I wish the LibDems would be a bit more vocal about it though.

Do you mean the lack of symmetry about the mid-point of the dimer? I presume that’s because only one of the Rb atoms is excited, the other is in its ground state. Fascinating though!

These 12 new subs will be attack (hunter-killer) submarines to replace the Astute class, not ballistic missile subs like the 4 Vanguards.

Ah, my cup is full. Your illustrations are what made Lone Wolf for me. Never felt the same about the series with other covers/illustrators contributing.

I can recommend "How Migration Really Works" by Hein de Haas as a good primer. It's written by someone who understands the subject deeply. It's a shame that Labour haven't read it.

I’m pretty sure that particular paragraph was satirical. Anyway, a true wargamer would rather spend money on the miniatures…

Sorry to say that R4 current affairs and “analysis” has plummeted dramatically in the last year or so. Very depressing indeed.

Enjoy chap, sounds perfect.

Thanks! Unfortunately those minis seem to be prone to tin pest/lead rot so it’s a bit of a lottery when buying second-hand.

Your artwork is a very major part of what made/makes the Lone Wolf series great in my opinion. Still trying to complete my collection of the Citadel miniatures released at the time…

By definition businesses optimise for profit, nothing else. We shouldn’t entrust them with any critical services whatsoever.
