Whilst I do really welcome this, I guess it is the end of an era. Undoubtedly it had lots of negative aspects, but it was incredibly important to the lives of many people, coal mining and the Industrial Revolution were crucial to this country. That was a lot of CO2 released though!

You say Mobius strip, I say Macbeth. I think that the UK’s situation with Brexit is comparable with staging Macbeth. The last government and this one are staging it with different actors, props, costumes, emphasis, but the same lines, plot and tragic outcome.

Are they also going to export the shitty water to another country? I mean, instead of pumping it into our rivers? It might be as good or if not better business idea, send our waste water to desertic countries, they can use it to irrigate and fertilise in one go, win win.
