The only shock about the UK Home Secretary Priti Patel’sdecision regarding Julian Assange was that it did not come sooner.
In April, Chief Magistrate Senior District Judge Paul Goldspring expressed the view that he was’duty-bound‘to send the case toPriti Patelto decide on whether to extradite the WikiLeaks founder to the United States to face 18 charges, 17 grafted from the U.S.Espionage Act of 1917.
Patel, for her part, was never exercised by the more sordid details of the case.Her approach to matters of justice is one of premature adjudication: the guilty are everywhereand only multiply. When it came toWikiLeaks, such fine points of law and fact as a shaky indictment based on fabricated evidence, meditations on assassination, and a genuine, diagnosed risk of self-harmwere piffling distractions.

My partner was always banging on about heritage horse drawn canal boats and their place in English History, I’m Scottish, I kind of get it now. After my girls dream of sharing a canal boat was burnt & set afloat by drunks on the River Lea, she spotted an advert, all I kept hearing was ‘Starcross, Starcross’ like an earworm, didn’t pay much attention but time went past, again ‘Starcross, Starcross.. still for sale’ ‘ok, babe we’ll check out Starcross’, owners sounded lovely hmmmm…. got their cat ‘Whiskey’ out of the tree before we boarded Starcross for viewing, my first thoughts ‘its like a block of flats that fell over, with a thatched roof’ or a ‘an old country pub, turned into a bowling alley that floats, its 71ft long, not including the outboard engine, it was more like a ritual, where he mentioned that they were in a position of choosing the new custodians and mentioned that I could be in the runnings as I was hands on and good at DIY as well as a qualified mechanic. All seemed cozy enough we could not see any reason not to invest in this beautiful floating cottage, for what my girl termed ‘a drama free life’. She was able to obtain a loan for half and I was able to get the other half, we felt secure as in we had done checks, surveyed, freshly caulked and blacked, these people seemed genuinely concerned for the welfare of Starcross.
DO YOU WANNA HEAR A CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHTMARE!
Firstly our Volkwagon camper van engine siezed up on the M1, a car we hired got towed away and when eventually presented to view our boat it was lisping, we ran down only to find she had submerged to the bottom of the Grand Union Canal, even the log burner was submerged
We turned up the day before Christmas eve, with all our stuff to ready us for Christmas on the boat, we noticed straight away from the bridge at Apsley Lock that there was something strange about the boat it was lisping, we made our way to her and this is what we found… https://youtu.be/T_cORc5cAOM
The start of a year long trial and tribulations, it was mid pandemic we were unable to get any support if any type of rescue, what was supposed to be a festive celebration became ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’…. this blog a document of our journey.
Due to my partner being an absolute wizz with mechanics and an added obsession for vintage vehicles and mainly bicycles, I’ve decided to start a website to send people to view what we have and keep a record of progression of vintage & classics that he brings back to life from the brink, he has a passion for engineering that beyond me, a problem solver.
In a new report using estimated spread of highly toxic and radioactive particles has been reported in a new study. Looking at an area close to the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster zone throws some light on a previously ignored aspect of possible health effects.
Over the past 9 years, the nuclear industry has reported on the dose of radiation (as found in bananas) as the primary danger to the health and well being of the citizens of the Fukushima Prefecture and surrounding prefectures. Using debatable measuring techniques they tell us that there are no major health effects. The dose method of measurement itself has been widely debated among UNSCEAR members and the…

Film from 1956, the joys of living underground, vintage B/W film, the beginning of the end of civilization.
“I feel immense pain, and my art is how I scream.” This man uses street art to remind people that Fukushima’s nuclear disaster is far from over.
An Interview with 281_Anti Nuke
October 1, 2013
The stickers went up a few months after Japan’s triple disaster in 2011—an earthquake and tsunami that took twenty thousand lives, and an ongoing nuclear crisis that threatens more. They first appeared along the shabby backstreets of Shibuya, in downtown Tokyo, a place that offers some of the very few canvasses for graffiti in a city not given to celebrating street art. The British expat photographer and filmmaker Adrian Storey couldn’t ignore them. “Being a foreigner, there was a sort of brief period after 3/11 when there was this sense of community in Tokyo that I haven’t felt before,” Storey says. “Then it kind of went away, and people just went back to shopping. I…

The Saudi Government has accelerated research into nuclear programmes and has begun building a team of experts, according to a new report by.
Labelled a nuclear ”newcomer” the Saudi Kingdom is pushing to arm itself with new technologies, the Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) said.
The Washington DC-based group wrote since nuclear action was scaled back in Iran, it has increased in the Saudi kingdom.
Iran signed a landmark nuclear deal with world powers including the US, the UK, France and Russia in 2015.
Huge economic sanctions on Iran were lifted as a result of it restricting its sensitive nuclear activities.
The deal limited Iran’s sensitive nuclear program and subjected it to greater international monitoring.
But in nearby Said Arabia, a new threat is growing, it is claimed.
The organisation which monitors global proliferation issues (ISIS) said: “Saudi Arabia is in the early stages of nuclear development.

Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. is aiming to integrate its nuclear and power transmission and distribution businesses with other utilities to free up funds to use in dealing with the aftermath of the Fukushima disaster.
According to TEPCO’s revised business turnaround plan announced Wednesday, the company will establish a consortium with other utilities to quickly facilitate its reorganization and integration plan.
The utility’s first major revision to the business turnaround plan since its formulation in January 2014 follows Japan’s industry ministry doubling its estimated total cost of the nuclear disaster cleanup to an estimated 22 trillion yen ($197 billion).
Once it finishes the overall revision, possibly in April, TEPCO intends to obtain government approval for the plan.
Under the revised plan, TEPCO is aiming to boost management efficiency and increase productivity to free up funds, and it will decide whether to postpone…
