Hardly surprising Airbus are threatening us today when they've taken billions in EU funding. bbc.co.uk/news/business-4412…
EU paid Airbus billions in illegal subsidies, WTO rules

So sad to hear of the death of Koko the gorilla. She did more than perhaps any other animal to demonstrate that the divide between animals and humans is an imaginary one theguardian.com/world/2018/j…

Amazing, I loved this photo too. Why would a photographer fraudulently go to such lengths? xitter.cf/NHM_WPY/status/9897785…

It's with great sadness we're letting you know that after a careful investigation into the image 'The night raider', we have disqualified the photograph. It was the winner of the 2017 Animals in Their Environment category. More info here: bit.ly/WPYdisqualification

Both our main political parties risking self-immolation as they jointly take country into decline and marginalisaton. Corbyns cowardice over #Brexit as rank as Blair’s over Iraq. May in thrall to #Rees-mogg #Farage and Johnson. History will be savage.

It's difficult to imagine a more small-minded, insular, out of touch front page than this. This is the Brexit mentality.
