Removing British Summer Time would leave GMT unchanged, so the clocks would be the same in Winter as they are now.

Control of militias matters, absolutely. Now tell me why those militias wouldn't immediately depose their billionaire and take what wealth he has for themselves.
The tariffs are hurting America because American manufacturing - like all manufacturing around the world - depends on global supply chains. Do you think those container ships are still going to be doing business as usual after the collapse?
They may think that they're being smart but, if society collapses, their money will be worth nothing. If anything, they have more to lose than anyone.
No - the nicks are on the end, similar to the plastic versions, so the thread is slipping along the clean edges.
I tried those as well, but gave up immediately. I just use little squares of card, with two nicks cut in one end. Wind the thread / floss around and tuck the loose end in the nick to hold it. Works much better. I also find it's much quicker to unwind thread from - it doesn't have those blobs on the corners, so you can just pull the thread to the side and it unwinds.
You don't have to make it harder to drive. It's a question of separating the cars from the bikes. Designate some streets for bikes and some for cars. That is better for both.
Where they cross, some junctions should prioritise cars and some bikes.
Also separate the pedestrians from the bikes on the same basis.
Having checked, it seems that the Fairtrade standards now allow producers that are not cooperatives.
OK, I missed that one, but it is also slightly strange, right? Since neither Lipton nor Twinings use the Fairtrade mark, why do they have it? Who else do they supply?
Still, I have to accept that Fairtrade International didn't reply "no, that isn't one of ours" when asked for comment.
The article repeatedly lumps Rainforest Alliance and Fair Trade together, but they are not the same at all, and I didn't see any examples of inspection failures for Fair Trade.
To be certified for Fair Trade, the producers must be a cooperative. That is relatively easy to check and it means that there is no-one to impose harsh conditions on the workers.
I think we have to thank people like this for demonstrating that losing your collection isn't just a theoretical risk.
Retreats? After Trump stacked the court, it has done nothing but advance his agenda. They're on the attack.
