The Environment Agency definition of a floodplain for planning purposes.Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.0 -
The UKIP chap who said the floods were a punishment from God as revenge for the gay marriage bill has been asked to leave the party. I can only assume this will incur the wrath of God even more - I'm going to start work on an Arc.
At least UKIP have got this unpleasantness behind them now and can stop being diverted by unfavourable press attention. Oh hang on..A man who served as UKIP's Commonwealth spokesman for a year is the former leader of a kidnapping gang in Pakistan, BBC Newsnight has revealed.
Mujeeb ur Rehman Bhutto's gang were behind a high-profile kidnapping in Karachi in 2004 and he then took a £56,000 ransom payment in Manchester.
In 2005, Bhutto, of Leeds, admitted being the gang's "boss" and was jailed for seven years by a UK court.
UKIP said Bhutto, 35, had "recently" resigned his party membership.
