OK, the notion that Chinese lenders (State lenders? Is there any other in China?) have equity rights in a critical utility - Thames Water - is madness. It sounds like something that could happen here, but the US has CFIUS - the Committee on Foreign Investment in the US - that looks at critical infrastructure investments and can bar them under US federal law. We are certainly capable of screwing up utilities ourselves - Flint, MI and Montgomery (?) AL come to mind, but at least when fixed we don't need to pay China lenders! {we pay enough in T-Bill interest to them, but that is another issue.

Hello Northumberland!

TY, as always Michelle, for the wonderful line-up of articles. I wish I could say I was shocked.

Scotland is truly a mess. And I'm very sorry to "hear" about the result of Puberty Blockers.

And schools? Of course, it's down to the teachers and their unions. Of course schools play a large part in the increase in gender confusion. Perhaps they can correct their policies. I agree that it's a national scandal.

Sorry to hear about the Thames. That was interesting about the King.

TY again, and here's to wishing You best o' luck on Your writing. That's a great cover. Congrats.
