Couldn't make it up. BBC reports: 'The US and UK F-35s - which were initially scheduled to also take part (in the flypast) - have been forced to stand down due to poor weather.' Just as well it's always sunny when we go to war.
5 years of repeated EA visits before prosecution. Fined £760 for each offence. Something badly wrong. gov.uk/government/news/man-p…

Latest EPR producer list shows 6,140 producers have registered, coincidentally, virtually the same as have registered under the 2007 regs (6,143). @asda seems to be the only major supermarket missing from both lists.....
Woeful 2007 regs producer packaging data numbers published. Compared to same time last year, 200 less producers registered, nearly 1m less tonnes recorded, plastic av. per registration down 11%. npwd.environment-agency.gov.…

Particularly useful was the current timeline for the introduction of various policies - long and complex.
