Protest at Queens visit to the Nuclear Death Park in Rotherham

On 18th October the Queen's visited Sheffield and the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre in the Advanced Manufacturing Park at Catcliffe, was greeted by protestors.
The press release for the event didn't mention the arms industry related work that takes place there but simply stated that, "The Nuclear AMRC is a new collaboration between the University of Sheffield and the University of Manchester, with the backing of the Government and leading companies involved in building the new generation of civil nuclear power stations."
The day before, Stuart Parkinson, executive director of Scientists for Global Responsibility, speaking at the Sheffield CND AGM exposed the often used argument about job creation for facilities of this nature — only 3,000 are employed in the defence sector in the Yorkshire and Humberside region and the money invested could generate far more jobs in sustainable industries.

More information from the newswire:
"This sick global research facility is the experiment centre of heavy construction, nuclear, aerospace and defense corporations. Boeing, Rolls Royce, BAE, and UK and US Military all have their talons in this centre supported by the Sheffield and Manchester Uni's. Casting Technology International one of the businesses already operating at the park makes parts for 'drones' (unmanned aerial and ground vehicles) on site as well as other defence hardware for such instruments of death as the Taranis Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle, the Joint Strike Fighter, the M777 Lightweight Howitzer and the Future Naval Gun."
And also from the newswire:
"We say........."
"SHUT IT DOWN - The Advanced Manufacturing Park in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. In this little town they have built a death park that is home to Rolls Royce, The AMP Technology Centre or its other name The Advanced (NUCLEAR) Manufacturing Research Centre with Boeing, CAMTEC and others including sheffield and manchester uni's. (please stand up and say something on this topic local students!!!)"
"Amongst other shit they are making parts for unmanned land and air drones and carrying out nuclear research BOO! The parts are for US and UK military and we all know they cause death and destuction. As you read on you will find that they are also making a 3D replica of king tut. The root of this park is next generation military shit greedy technology much like avatar"
"The park is inviting companies to rent space for free for 18 months as part of their drive to get similar businesses on board. They are offering huge spaces big enough for a lovely party."
"Here's the ad, 'UK Strategic Partnership, Yorkshire Forward and the AMP Project Team are delighted to be able to offer 18 months of rent free accommodation in the newly completed Evolution @ the AMP development - brand new 'Grade A' manufacturing space from 300 to 1100 square metres.We can also offer assistance with making this space suit your business' bespoke requirements. The AMP Team would be pleased to discuss this initiative with you - this initiative is time limited and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis."
"Local papers only report the positive advances made in miltary tech and nuclear research and the 500 jobs that the park supposably created."
"Local people have held a stall at Rotherham show to try and raise awareness."

MALENKI, Ginevra Amara
by Ginevra Malenki Fri Aug 17, 2012 6:59 am
GINEVRA AMARA MALENKI
FULL NAME: Ginevra Amara malenki
NICKNAMES: Gin.
AGE: 20.
ALLEGIANCE: Neutral.
HOGWARTS HOUSE: Ex.Ravenclaw.
CLASSES: N/A
WAND: 12 inch Dragon Heartstring and Black Laurel
PLAY BY: Ashley Benson. (Frieda no long wants her face to be used )
HAIR COLOR: Blonde.
EYE COLOR: Blue.
BODY TYPE: Slim, average height and slightly underweight.
GENERAL APPEARANCE: Ginevra is a natural blonde. Her hair steams down to just below her chest, naturally waving out in whatever direction it pleases. The sun highlights it shades of light brown during the summer, allowing them to begin fading into more of a darkened tone during the winter. Her eyes are a deep sea blue, deep and revealing all emotions that she doesn't reveal on the outside. If aware of how to read them right, it is the access to her heart and soul. Her body is averaged height, standing at approximately 5'6. From the stress that she has been through over the past few years, Ginevra has lost weight causing her to go just below the healthy rate for her age and height range. Fully aware of this, there still isn't much thought put towards it. The clothing she dresses herself in is simple. She always covers herself up to keep it classy, typically wearing darker shades of blue, her favorite color, as well as her alumni Hogwarts house. Her face is kept natural, not wearing make-up unless she has an important day to attend at work. It hasn't been long since she returned from her disappearance, so often she doesn't look overly well-kept due to getting settled on top of the new schedule she has gotten herself into.

QUIRKS:
-pursing lips when annoyed
- zoning out during deep thought
BOGGART: Most fear death. Ginevra, however, feels causing the death of another person. From the day she became a werewolf, she knew that it was a possibility. Although she may wish that some weren't alive on days that they annoyed her to a good enough extent, it wasn't a honest wish, only anger.
PATRONUS: The best memory to date was when she celebrated her sisters eleventh birthday. Coming from a half-blood family with her father being a muggle, it wasn't definite that either of them would develop magic. Being nine when her sister was eleven, she had spent that day sitting by her sister crying because she had not received her acceptance letter to Hogwarts. This memory didn't have its importance because she was the only one that would go on to learn magic, but because in that moment her mother and father walked in, both still proud of their daughter, supportive of whatever lifestyle that was going to be taken in her path. She realized then that everything seemed complete and that really, all in life she needed was to be there with people that loved and supported her.
DEMENTOR: Ginevra's worst memory is when her father was killed. Although they both died at a young age, Ginevra had him as her first ever loss and it cut her deep, shaping views she would later on adapt.
VERITASERUM: It was her fault she was turned into a werewolf. She was running from the truth where she knew would be reckless and by the tim she noticed the full moon, she hadn't a care to keep aware of her suroundings.
MIRROR OF ERISED: To love and be loved back.
PERSONALITY: Never would anyone actually understand a girl like Ginevra. She is confusing, stubborn, temperamental, protective, moody and overall, just herself. The blonde is the type to stick up for those who won't for themselves, tell anyone off that looks at her the "wrong" way and roll her eyes at those who think she is going to follow along with a crowd. If anything, she is an individual beyond all else. Don't get her wrong, though, as she has her sweet side as well. Ginevra is a very understanding, trustworthy person. She believes that people should have their chance to say what has to be said and therefore will always listen. Being guarded, those who aren't already close to her tend to be blocked out of anything personal. Ginevra isn't one for being questioned, though doesn't mind questioning when curious enough. Ginevra has bi-polar, and though she will not admit to it, that is the reason she has so many mood changes unpredictably. She refuses treatment for the need to feel like she is 100% her- whoever that is. There isn't more than an inch of her body that is girly. She hates being treated like she can't do something herself because her muscles are smaller and her chest is bigger. Very colorful words would be used to those who assumed ahead of time, having developed a mouth over the years. Being a healer, Ginevra knows when to hold her tongue and keep the bedside manner that is appropriate. Work is about the only thing that keeps her sane, as helping people is what brought her back from reality after disappearing for two years to avoid the true feelings she was developed. A tip right now, never argue with this girl. She will not give up until she has proven her point and that is definitely proven easily. Ginevra's also very protective. All her life she has been very selfless. There isn't a day where she would think twice about putting herself in danger just to make sure nothing happened to someone she cared about. Ginevra tends to be motherly, on top of that. She is great at healing and doesn't abide by waiting when someone is hurt- as long as she is sure she knows how to do it. She's not stupid. Ginevra knows when she should give up; unless it involves her. Anything that has to do with her never really crosses her mind to the extent that it should. To put in simply, she doesn't always take care of herself as much as she should.
To sum it all up, she is like a box of crayons. Her good traits shine like a shade of yellow or pink where her bad ones range from grey to black.

OTHER POSSESSIONS:
Early Years: Ginevra had once not been alone in the world. She was born on the night of March Tenth to two loving parents, Julie and Travis Malenki. She seemed to be exactly what they wanted. The hair color, the eye color, and the gender- everything was there on this little girl, and they couldn't be happier about it. Was it really a surprise that happiness didn't last forever? Voldemort was still around when she was growing up, but her parents never worried too much. Her dad was a muggle, and that was something she wasn't ashamed of. Ginevra grew up to be proud of where she came from. Her mother taught her everything she needed to know in one world, and her dad for the other. It was all fair, and when the time came for her to go to Hogwarts, she did. Ginevra was the one child, out of two that Julie and Travis had, which would obtain inherited powers. Ginevra had a sister that was two years older than she was. Her name was Brittney Jayne Malenki. The two of them were best friends but Brittney was a squib, getting no powers when it came her time. Ginevra had the luxery of living by a park. They were held up in the muggle world so that her father would be comfortable, hough in a country home so her mum could 'be herself' without being noticed. The childhood was happy and although it's distant now, it is still cherrished none the less.
Hogwarts Years: Hogwarts was an amazing place. Magical, different and full of surprises. Oh boy did she hate surprises. Friends came easily at a young age, still innocent and full of smiles. Ginevra was sorted into the house of Ravenclaw, away from the majority of friends that she would met. No matter, though, as she made do with what was thrown her way. It was in her second year that she met a third year named Darren, a boy that would soon become her best friend against all odds. Ginevra's third year was when she really changed, though. Her father's murder hit her hard and she was glad she had never actually mentioned that she had a sister to anyone, not even her best friend. It wasn't because she was ashamed either, no, as like her dad she treasured everything about them. It was when her dad died at the age of thirteen right in front of her eyes that she learned it wasn't safe for anyone to know. Her dad had been killed because he was a muggle, and that would never be right with her. After this occurrence, Ginevra had joined the Death Eaters for revenge. She was so good at hiding things that she never did give away a thing, and even if it was life endangering, there wasn't a day that she ever cared. It was all for her dad. But eventually things did go wrong and her sister was found out about, and killed not to long after. Ginevra went on refuge quite a few times in her life and it wasn't until her mother disappeared that she knew she was alone. All she had left was her long-time best friend, who was a year older than she was, to trust, as everyone else just never went through with her anymore. She was paranoid and aggressive, who would want to be around that? But Ginevra knew there were much worse things than being alone. These were the later years of her Hogwarts experience, ending with her seventh year where she finished her exams and disappeared for the next two years, not to be heard of with a reason as to why she was doing this.
Adulthood: Recently reappearing, Ginevra got a job as a Healer to begin her new life where she had last left off. The only difference? She is back where she never gave reasoning as to why she disappeared. Those reasons being that she was attacked by a werewolf and barely lived to tell the tale, and shortly after when she talked to her best friend about what was going on with her life, the feelings she didn't want to sum up started to burrow to the surface. She couldn't take it and therefore darted. After two years of schooling in a different scenery, she is back to face the consequences that came with possibly leaving the imprint that she had been killed or kidnapped. In her mind, leaving without a warning left minds to wander to the best and the worst and away from her being weak, scared and emotional. Three things that she hated more than anything else in the world- minus the fact that she was now a werewolf. Being neutral to all sides, she feels that it is not her place to get into the drama. All it brought her in the past was darkness but now, being back the question is, will she be sucked back into her old, more childish habits or will she stand up and learn from her past mistakes.

OTHER CHARACTERS: newp.
PURPOSE OF CHARACTER: um, to roleplay with?
In her hand was a very thin object, long and skinny with a little box-shaped screen on the front. From one moment to the next it was the same, her eyes just watching it, but just a moment later- not just the screen changed, but her life. Jade Harper was standing in her dorm's bathroom with a pregnancy test in her hand. Anybody who knew this girl would think it was crazy for her of all people to be holding one of these at the age of fifteen. Jade was an innocent girl, she was nervous around guys and hadn't shown any interest in them! Well, minus the guy she had been dating for the last while. It had been kept on the down low but of course, she had always been the centre of attention at first, which she had hated and still did. Not being recognized was what she had preferred, and what she still did. So now as she stood there, alone, at six in the morning with a test that had a pink plus sign on the screen, she took a deep breath and steadied herself on the kitchen counter, not sure what she was going to do next. Jade felt queasy, like she was going to faint but somehow she was managing to keep herself up and still good. Stuffing the test in her silk robes pocket, she was fully aware that she would need it for proof because no one would believe her, at least not if they were in their right minds. The first person she would think of going to would be her brother, but since he didn't go to Hogwarts she really couldn't. Beauxbatons was way too far and she was not about to 'rebel' even more by just running away from Hogwarts. This was bad enough as it started, especially since she had a real hard feeling that the father wouldn't want to be a father this young. Knowing that abortion was not an option, she was pro-choice and her choice was to never kill a thing in the world- that was her sisters' way. Searching frantically through her clothes, she just threw on a pair of neon green short shorts that were a flannel pajama material before adding a white top to that just so that she wasn't going out in just her robe. Taking the robe off, she wrote an owl to the only person she could think of other than her boy: Cale Bradley. He was about one of the only people she actually trusted to keep this secret and not yell at her, saying how stupid she was. Sure, he could end up doing that and she did know it was true. The thing was, she just wasn't sure what she expected to get from him, the information she now knew was just something she couldn't keep to herself. This was just too much.
Since they were in the same house, she didn't really have to go anywhere to get to him. The owl only had to go knock on the other side of the tower's window, so it wasn't far and she didn't feel bad for sending it this early in the morning. Making her way down to the common room, she was very thankful to see that no one was an early-morning person like she was. This had to be the most peaceful time of the whole day, since a lot of people were night-owls and stayed up all night, unable to sleep. She was like that as well, but she also couldn't sleep in. Waiting, she didn't sit down on the chairs and she definitely hadn't brought her book down to read. Every morning Jade usually did have her own routine. First she would wake up, go to the bathroom and then head for a shower. After getting clean she would go down and eat while the hall was still quiet and near empty, if not empty. The wide space around her always was comforting. When full, she would head back up to the common room and read part of her book, if not most. She owned so many that she would be set to read at least one each day. The thing was, ever since she had started dating the man she was, she had less time to read, therefore when she did get the chance she spent it quite concentrated. Literature was a big part of who this girl was as a person. It was only when people started to come down into the common room when she bookmarked her page and placed it back up in the dorm, where she would get dressed and make sure her hair looked decent. Of course, her hair always did but that wasn't the point. Even if she didn't have to try to be attractive it made her feel more normal to just assure everything was in place and she was happy with what she was. Sometimes she wasn't happy, and she actually felt ugly still. It was only normal for girls to feel ugly, but a veela? Probably not, which was why Jade wasn't like your everyday person, or even the person you'd expect to get out of her when first meeting, or hearing about her from someone you were friends with. She had even been told in the past she wasn't what they had expected to meet. Jade took this as neither a bad or good thing either, since she didn't want to think about how much of a possibility of it being a bad thing it was. Turning her head, she had thought she heard a noise, but was wrong.
Since her mind was playing tricks on her constantly, she could tell that she was very paranoid. The biggest part of this all would be the fact that she really didn't want the news to get around. Jade had made a decision just now that was making her feel guilty as ever. The thing was, she wasn't sure what she was going to do by herself but what she did know was the fact that she wasn't going to put the life of a child onto another. She should have been smarter; she should have made sure there was protection. Before that moment, she had thought that it would be common sense to just slip on a condom before entering for the guy but with them, it had all happened so fast that she wasn't sure what had occurred at first. Jade knew she had been so caught up in the moment that it was perfect just as it was. Now that it was all over she could see how much of a.. wrong doing it was. Most people would have just started that as a 'mistake,' since it was the most practical word. Jade, on the other hand, found it rude to state it in such a way. No child, unborn or born, should be considered as a mistake, even if you hadn't planned it. Jade herself saw life as a miracle and this wasn't going to change it, no matter how hell-like her life would probably be stress-wise, as well as emotionally. Just talking over what she had already ruled over in her head with a friend would help, though. The one thing that was most important she was rather iffy about telling him, so right now she was not too sure whether or not it would be mentioned. Jade knew that people judged and it was one thing that she didn't want to happen to her. Jade was a very self-conscious person and the paranoia was already making her think that when she was talking to Cale someone who overhear. Shaking her head, she didn't like that idea at all. Deciding once he came down that they wouldn't stay in the common room, she just hoped he was willing to go walking outside with her. It was a little moist because of the fresh rainfall that had occurred the night before, though it wasn't the end of the world or anything like that. Continuing her pacing, Jade was uneasy as ever.

This is amusing
London has been dubbed the world's "talent capital". The accolade has been awarded by business advisers Deloitte after a survey of 22 high-value sectors ranging from banking to telecoms and digital media.
The results put London comfortably in the lead, with 1.5m people apparently employed in the "high skill" sectors, compared with 1.2m in New York, 784,000 in Los Angeles, and 630,000 in Hong Kong.
Deloitte researchers delved into official employment data in the cities to arrive at the conclusion that London employed the most people in 12 of the sectors, such as banking, legal services and digital media, while New York was ahead of the field in just seven.
The amusement comes from the fact that various leftoids keep telling us that we must build a high wage, high skill economy. But they absolutely hate London which is a high wage high skill economy.
Sorta time to make up your minds about what you actually want, eh?

When lefties mean high skill, they mean lots of unionised workers bashing metal in factories on which 1930s Soviet propaganda posters were based.
Andrew M November 11, 2013 at 10:59 am
The same Deloitte report also claims that 57% of their own highly skilled workforce hope to work outside of London in the next five to 10 years. Hardly a ringing endorsement of the status quo.

The question is whether this is some kind of marvellous free market activity, or a regional boom clustering around the source of State patronage and largesse. Capital cities have traditionally attracted such people- Dick Wittington and all that- because of the presence of the Royal household, parliament, etc. In a modern state which pours government money in a constant torrent, it is hardly surprising if the people in receipt of it, either directly or indirectly, are doing rather well.

Ian B,
Indeed. If government pours close to a billion quid into a swimming pool in London, where are the architects going to be? Llaneli, or London? When the opera house gets a new paint job are you going to be hiring painters from Dundee, or somewhere in the South East?
The £10bn/annum of housing benefit and £3bn subsidy to London Transport per annum shouldn't be overlooked either. Or projects with big spending like £10bn on the Olympics, £12bn on Crossrail, or however many billions HS1 was and HS2 is.
There's some free market activity in London. The digital media thing they mentioned? There's a load of CG houses in London. It's one of the centres of it in the world, and some of that is about hip people like being in London. Although, if we cut the 50% arts subsidy to London that makes it hipper, what would be the result?
Jim November 11, 2013 at 1:05 pm
The South East produces far more tax revenue than it receives in government spending, even accounting for London being the capital of the UK. If you towed it off into the North Sea and left the rest of the UK to whatever tax revenue it could raise itself, we (the rest of the UK) would be considerably worse off.
Rather old figures, but show the basics:

The Stigler November 11, 2013 at 1:43 pm
The report captures spending as being the region it's designed for, and takes no account of which region does the work, which is what Ian and I are talking about.
If some minister for public health thinks up some nonsense fake charity and throws millions at it, it might be for the country, but where are the web design team going to be? In Aberdeen, or somewhere near London? OK, you might outsource the coding somewhere else, but the design team that have to do face-to-face meetings with the Whitehall team are going to be based near London.
Ian B November 11, 2013 at 2:11 pm
Jim, it's not just government spending. I'll put on my Austrian Economics hat here, and point to the fact that a major form of State patronage is the State-sponsored inflationary (central) banking system which is in London. Government borrowing, interest payments, quantitative easing, bailouts, fractional reserve, the right to print money. It's a lot of wonga.
The "neoliberal" stylee is strongly mercantilist. The notionally private sector companies benefitting from that cluster around the source of the patronage. This is all very hard to measure in quantitative terms, but it must at the very least be a significant effect. To put it mildly.
sam November 11, 2013 at 2:22 pm
The problem with high skill high wage economies is obviously that they discriminate against the low skilled and indolent who can't live there, which is terrible in leftoid world. Also London has a higher-than-average proportion of the 'wrong' kind of immigrant – namely the type that works hard, pays taxes but wishes they were lower, resents rather than depends upon government intervention, learns english, and doesn't commit lots of crime which is clearly society's fault.
Well you lot can pretend we'd all be better off without the SE if you like, I for one are very happy there's so much wealth creation going on there, some of which finds its way spread across the rest of the UK, especially as London is a total shit hole I wouldn't live in if you paid me. So the fact I don't have to live there to benefit from it is a double bonus.
BenSix November 11, 2013 at 2:32 pm
Which leftists hate London? As far as I can tell, they love London: its multiculturalism; its radical politics and its artistic depth. I think London is overrated in all of those senses, though it would be foolish to deny its economic importance.
Jim, the question is how much of it is actually wealth creation- in the sense of you get more consumer goods and services at the end of it- and how much of it is statist money transfers that look good for the GDP figure, which is something different.
It's possibly worth quoting Tim's (correct) slogan- "Jobs are a cost, not a benefit"- and consider that in terms of whether some minority in one place are earning a lot of money is automatically indicative of economic good. People often think naively that rising prices are indicative of economic good times; as with the cheers when house prices rise. Well, incomes are prices too, and we just shouldn't automatically assume that bankers, lawyers and the like earning more money is a benefit, rather than a cost.
Was just going to post there; but I'll add that lawyers is a very good example which should cause our eyebrows to raise. The law is always a cost; having to pay for a lawyer never increases your economic activity. So if lawyers are earning more money, that's not a Good Thing at all. Every penny paid to a lawyer is, in terms of national production, money down the drain.
In that sense, the law is like healthcare. We wouldn't be glad that doctors have more work. We should be sad that more people are ill.
"The problem with high skill high wage economies is obviously that they discriminate against the low skilled and indolent who can't live there, which is terrible in leftoid world. "
Let me know when some Londoners start designing chips for iPhones, F1 cars or the next Airbus.
My experience of working with London companies, going on London conferences and going to London restaurants is that the place is hugely overrated. When you eat at a 1* Michelin restaurant in London, you're getting the same thing as a 1* Michelin restaurant in Wiltshire. Except that you're paying more because the restaurant is having to pay London rents. I know software freelancers that have worked in Bristol and then London, and they charge much more for London. They aren't doing anything different, though.
And that's why I'm highly skeptical of London as a free market location except in a few specialist areas. Using a London company is just not better value than using companies outside London.
Andrew M November 11, 2013 at 4:04 pm
Stig,
There's no reason to choose a London company over a provincial one if they both provide the same product or service. The trouble is that many things simply can't be bought outside London. If you need a team of international lawyers to draft a contract between you and a Chinese supplier, you won't find it in Wiltshire.
Just look at "revealed preferences". London's property market (both residential and commercial) is phenomenally expensive precisely because millions of individuals and businesses want to be there.
Which is why we get a chicken and egg situation of wondering why everyone is crowding into one little area of the country.
The point maybe is this; Britain used to be a polycentric economy, with economic centres all over. Great industrial cities, coal fields, the potteries, ports in the North, all over. Now, everyone's clustering desperately around the Square Mile.
So then we might ask what is so special about that one location, and one reasonable suggestion (which is basically the Austrian view) is that that is where the government is pouring the money in. As I said above, there is always some cachet about the capital city, but something has gone into overdrive over recent decades. I don't think in unreasonable to say that London is rapidly turning into a city of two classes; an oligarchy and its servants. We really should analyse why.
Andrew M,
OK, I sort of get that. And curators at the Science Museum. And the sort of security specialists that sit in COBRA meetings with the PM.
But if it's full of all these high value specialists, why do they need so much in housing benefit and London underground subsidies from the rest of the country?
There's definitely been centralisation over the last few decades because of how we've changed spending in the country from being localised to nationalised.
It used to be that rates were a large part of people's taxation, as that then went on local services, like schools and repairing roads. So, if people lived in an expensive place, they had to pay for the expensive road cleaners and teachers.
We've changed that so that most local government spending now comes from general taxation, and as a result, London is the third recipient per head from the Barnett formula after Scotland and Northern Ireland, getting over £2000/head more than the South West.
Then there's housing benefit, which replaced people building council houses and that also comes from central government which didn't exist so much in the days of council housing, and so of course, that's another massive transfer of wealth from the rest of the country to London that didn't used to be there.
All of this will distort the value of land in an area, which means house prices will go up.
It's unsustainable on its present course. People in the provinces are rebelling in enough numbers against the current metrocentric Conservatives and towards UKIP that spending on London will have to fall.
Runcie Balspune November 11, 2013 at 8:12 pm
Stigler, I'm sure you realise that the "high skilled, high waged" types don't actually _live_ in London, and why would they, it's a real sh*t hole.
(ex-Hackney resident).
It's worth comparing with other parts of the world. New York City is going from strength to strength, despite being as expensive as London, and it's neither the national capital (Washington DC) nor even the state capital (Albany). Toronto attracts all of Canada's wealth and talent, despite it not being the capital. Likewise Sydney for Australia. Even Barcelona is generally doing better than Madrid.
Runcie,
London isn't a great place if you're British and have other options; but if you're arriving fresh off the Easyjet flight from a collapsing southern European economy, it's the only place to be. Your average Greek worker would rather live in north London and commute to Milton Keynes than the other way around, because he or she values being close to the Greek community there.
Even a native Brit might prefer living in London (and having a short commute & low travel costs) rather than living in the home counties and spending 2-3 hours a day in standing room only.
john77 November 11, 2013 at 10:07 pm
Communication is the reason why London dominates – the road and rail network radiates from London and government is based in London. Can any of you remember the fuss when the elected politicians wanted to relocate chunks of the civil service to the provinces? I can – and that when one set of victims were offered a choice of Glasgow, Teesside or Liverpool they voted 1) Teeside 2) Glasgow, 3) Liverpool: so Wilson sent them to Liverpool. The Civil Service wants to commute into London from Surrey.
A minority of finance (Lloyd's) is in London for historic reasons but nearly all major LSE-quoted companies have to have an office in London from which to talk to the government and investors and the press. LSE dominates UK investment thanks to being in walking distance of the Bank of England prior to the creation of the internet.
Being the capital is not the only thing that London has going for it but it makes a lot of difference – Washington DC, Canberra, Brasilia, St Petersburg, Novosibirsk are all major cities built on waste ground as national (regional for Novosibirsk) capitals whose existence is solely due to being a capital (admittedly Canberra is only 0.37m but it is already the largest inland city in Oz).
One of the reasons London is so expensive is the amount of dodgy foreign money coming in…any Russian or Nigerian who has looted state or private coffers and wants a nice, easy place to move his ill-gotten gains to out of reach of those who they've just ripped off looks to London. Not as hot as Dubai, and nobody asks any awkward questions. Or if you want to spend some of your billions on a nice comfortable pad for sonny when he's "studying" abroad? Buy in London, every time. Paris is nice, but you need to speak French, so not as convenient.
I've met some of these people, and they never decide to buy in Liverpool. It's always London, and in Zone 1.
Oh, and how much of the Middle East oil wealth finds its way into London? Lots. No wonder the place is expensive.
Offshore Observer November 12, 2013 at 12:48 am
Jim the country you have described already exists: Singapore.
Andrew M-
New York is the USA's financial centre. Toronto is Canada's financial centre. Sydney is Australia's financial centre. There seems to be a bit of a trend here.
When you eat at a 1* Michelin restaurant in London, you're getting the same thing as a 1* Michelin restaurant in Wiltshire.
Probably too late for you to read this reply, Stig, but notwithstanding your other points, this one is not true. Not true at all.
Speaking with a certain amount of experience, you will always pay more for decent food outside London. Any London restaurant has to contend with every other restaurant in walking, taxi and tube radius. If they have a Michelin star but they overcharge, then they are competing with someone with two or even three. Even in Bray and Ludlow, there is some competition. But your Wiltshire restaurant (the Harrow?) has a captive audience. The nearest competition in any sense will be a half hour drive away or more. People will go there specially, and suck up whatever the prices are.
I have eaten very well outside London. But almost never more cheaply.

essays Evaluation Essays Genetically Modified Food
Genetically modified foods (GM foods) are foods that are produced from genetically modified organisms. These organisms have introduced changes into their DNA through genetic engineering methods. There are other methods too through which foods can be modified; such include selective breeding, plant breeding, and animal breeding. Simply put, genetically modified foods are transgenic plant products, examples include soybean, corn, canola and cottonseed oil. Genetic modification was originally introduced so as to increase crop yield as a means of solving world hunger problems. However, GM foods have raised a lot of questions, or even, if that is the best way to address the issue. This paper is going to discuss the GM foods issue, it will then Identify and briefly evaluate different sides to the issue. (The positives and negatives) and then conclude by giving evidence based on the findings.
Debate on genetically modified food
Genetically modified foods have brought in a big debate lately in the news, public organizations and public interest groups have actively been protesting about the effects of these foods, The term GM foods refers to mainly crop plants created for human and animal consumption. These crops are enhanced in the laboratory to acquire desired traits such as improved resistance to herbicide or increased nutritional content. Originally this was done by conventional plant breeding methods until it was realized that this could be time consuming and apparently not accurate, which finally lead to Genetic engineering which is accurate and can create plants with the exact desired traits. A plant geneticist can get a gene such as those conferring insect resistance, desired nutrients or drought tolerance from one plant and insert it in another plant. The newly acquired plant will gain tolerance to drought, be resistant to drought or insects depending with the nature of the trait organism inserted in the plant. However, it's not only from plants that these genes can be transferred but also genes from non-plants organisms.
The best example is the use of B.t (Bacillus thuringiensis) which is a naturally occurring bacterium that produces crystal protein harmful to insect larvae (Whitman, 2011). The debate about genetically modified foods is most intense in Japan and Europe, Where the public concern is also very high is in the United States where genetically modified foods are widely grown and the introduction of these was less resisted. The key disputed areas of genetically engineered foods include; food safety, the effects of these crops in the natural ecosystem, gene flow into crops that are not genetically improved, moral and religious perceptions have been raised, and corporate control of food supplied. Though, not a single situation of harm to humans has been documented. In 2006, 252 million acres of transgenic crops were planted in more than 22 countries where by the majority of these plants were herbicide and insect resistant crops, the majority was soybean, oilseed or canola corn or maize, and alfalfa. There are other crops that are grown for commercial purposes like sweet potatoes which are resistant to viruses.
These can be used as an additional surplus to most of the Africans continent harvest. Rice rich in iron and vitamins that decimate chronic malnutrition in Asian countries and a variety of other crops with abilities to tolerant extreme conditions can also planted (U. S Department of Energy office of science, 2008). Scientists responsible for genetically modifying foods have promised meeting the 21st century greatest challenge towards curbing the food shortages throughout the world but just like all other scientists, they face challenges trying to convince the world that these crops are for the good, genetically modified foods have set backs both positive and negative the ones known and unknown.
The controversies surrounding GM foods and crops focus mostly on human and environmental safety, labeling and consumer preference, intellectual property rights, matters to deal with ethics, food security, poverty eradication and reduction and environmental conservation. An example of such body that wants to ensure the safety of the GM products is FDA (Federal food Drug authority) that evaluates the process of bioengineered plants so as to ensure the safety of new products and also allow the use new food products and its use ( Maryanski,2009). I would be glad to point out the benefits and the negative impacts of GM products.
GM Products: Benefits and Controversies
According to Science Daily (2010) many farmers in the U. S who grow genetically modified crops are experiencing substantial economic and environmental improvements. These includes; lower costs of production, limited pests infestation thus reducing the cost of buying pesticide, and improved crop production compared to the crop that are not genetically engineered.. Many American farmers are enjoying high profit margins because of using genetically modified seedlings; through this they are able to reduce environmental impacts while in the farm and off the farm. Environmental benefits are realized because the water quality improved due to less insecticide and herbicide use that attach in water ways and soil especially after being sprayed in the farms. Moreover, farmers who grow herbicide resistant plants less often to control weeds are able practice conservation tillage which improves the quality of soil, water filtration and reduces erosion since the soil is not lose to be swept away easily during the rainy seasons. However there is no laid down infrastructure to track and analyze the effects of genetically modified products on water quality. The world population is doubling in the years to come.
GM foods promise to meet these needs in a number of ways:
Pest resistance- crop losses from insect pests is a major problem leading to financial challenges for farmers and starvation in the third world countries, foods that have been treated with pesticides may also be harmful to the human health and a run-off of agricultural waste from the use of pesticides may poison water thus causing harm to man and the environment. The growing methods of GM foods such as B.t can help eliminate pesticide
Herbicide tolerance for some crops, it can be very cost effective by not removing weeds through the conventional methods such as tilling especially most farmers will spray a lot of herbicides to kill weeds which is a time consuming exercise and expensive process taking in mind that these herbicides could have negative impacts to humans and the environment as well. Genetically engineered crops that have been developed with traits to tolerate herbicides may be found to be cost effective economically and the environment too may not be exposed to these waste that may be harmful.
Disease tolerance where by the GM foods engineers are working to develop or create plants with genetically-engineered resistance organisms to viruses, fungi and bacteria.
Drought tolerance where the crops are able to thrive in areas unsuited for plant cultivation like places where the rains are short like arid and semi arid areas
Cold resistance- extreme coldness is not good to plants as this kills the micro-organisms responsible to help crops germinate for instance unexpected frost can destroy sensitive seedlings. An anti frost gene from cold water fish has been developed for plats like tobacco and potatoes, the anti frost gene is able to tolerate cold temperatures that normally unmodified seeds.
Nutrition especially these crops can alleviate malnutrition in Third World countries where people are extremely impoverished and survive by just a single meal to see another day such as rice as the main staple food. Rice contains starch; therefore it does not contain all the necessary nutrients to prevent malnutrition but if it can be genetically engineered to contain additional nutrients that mean the problem of malnutrition will be solved. According to Whitman, D. Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Institute of Plant Sciences have created a strain of "golden" rice that contains a high content of beta-carotene which is vitamin A13.
Pharmaceuticals-the cost of medicine and vaccine production are often costly to produce and mostly require special storage condition that may not be available in the developing countries. But through GM crops researchers are working to produce edible vaccines in tomatoes and which will not pose great risks for instance in transportation like shipping them to third world countries, this includes storage and the process of administering like the inject able vaccines
Phytomediation- this is a process of trying to clean up heavy metal pollution from the contaminated soil by developing genetically modified plants or crops that can clean up the environment. Other benefits that have been noted include;
Farmers who have adopted the use of genetically modified crops enjoy lower costs of production and higher yields in most cases, because of the lower cost experienced in insects and weed control and fewer insect damage, these farmers gain more economic benefits. According to Daily Science (2010) the high costs realized from the genetically modified seeds are not obviously offset financially by lower production costs or higher harvests. For instance farmers in areas infested with fewer insects and weed problems may not have much improvement in terms of reducing crop losses. None the less, research shows that farmers would value greater flexibility in spraying pesticides that these crops provides, among o0ther benefits there is increased safety to their workers due to reduced exposure to pesticides that may be harmful.
Although farmers have expressed high preference towards crops that are genetically modified, they have been adversely affected by propriety patent-protection terms involved in genetically modified seeds by the U.S market seed authority making the buying of conventional seeds even harder or those that have specific GE traits . However, with the exception of consolidation, there are other effects experienced from the genetically modified crops on social factors of farming, these include labor farm infrastructure and community viability. However, the range of effects on GE crops should be determined; this should examine the impacts on industries that rely on GE products.
Among the limitations to be discussed are for instance the safety of the humans and the health impacts, this includes the allergens, transfer of antibiotic resistance markers and other unknown effects that may be directed to mankind which have not been researched, as regards to safety there are also environmental impacts caused due unintended transfer of transgenic organisms through cross-pollination, other impacts are to the soil microbes and the loss of the flora and fauna biodiversity.
Accessing and intellectual property is also a controversy due to the domination in the world food industry by a few companies thus hindering the diversity thus increasing to dependence on industrialized nations by developing countries leading to bio-piracy where by other companies will compete to produce similar products that are substandard or foreign exploitation of natural resources.
About matters concerning ethics, the major disputes are related to violation of natural organism's intrinsic values that is caused due to the transfer of gene that have some specific traits to original or conventional crops which in turn tempers with the nature by mixing genes among different species. It is also not ethical to consuming animal genes or the other way round which is totally against nature which can be stressful especially to animals.
Another limitation is labeling which is not mandatory in some countries for instance the United States which may lead to mixing of GM crops with non-GM products which confounds with the labeling attempts.
Genetically modified crops have limitations in regards to resistance to insect, according to a report produced by Daily science, (2010). Two types of insects have developed resistance to Bt, due to this there has been a few economic and agronomic consequences, These means that practice to pest reduction has not stopped this calls for farmers grow or plant conventional crops alongside genetically modified plants in areas where these type of insects are. Even more there are genetically engineered crops that have developed resistance to herbicides (glyphosate which is the main component in weed killing leading to more weed more weed problems as with time due to mutation, these plants become resistant to glyphosate unless the farmers use or introduce weed and insect management practices. Other limitations of genetically modified crops facing the production of genetically modified crops are for example the government not being supportive to research institutions by helping them to develop GE traits that could be able to deliver valuable public benefits by providing few market incentives for private sectors to develop. Examples include crops with less likelihood of producing off-farm water pollution or plants that are resistant to changing climatic conditions. These will increase food for the growing population.
Genetically modified foods have the capacity to solve the world's many hunger problems and alleviate malnutrition; GM crops can also protect the environment from harmful chemicals produced from the use of pesticides and herbicides. Though most governments face very many challenges, it is the duty of the government to regulate measures governing especially areas like ensuring the safety of these crops by for instance safety testing, international policy and food labeling. Most individuals, researchers and other non governmental bodies feel that genetically modified crops is the future we cannot be able to avoid considering the immense benefits that can be achieved. However we must approach all these with a lot of care to avoid causing unintended harm to humans and the environment as a result of being carried away by the desire of embracing this new technology.
