Intel Not Considering UK Chip Factory After Brexit
Intel not considering UK chip factory after Brexit:
The boss of Intel says the US chipmaker is no longer considering building a factory in the UK because of Brexit.
Pat Gelsinger told the BBC that before the UK left the EU, the country "would have been a site that we would have considered".
[...] Intel wants to boost its output amid a global chip shortage that has hit the supply of cars and other goods.
[...] "I have no idea whether we would have had a superior site from the UK," he said. "But we now have about 70 proposals for sites across Europe from maybe 10 different countries.
UK Public Now Eating Significantly Less Meat
UK public now eating significantly less meat:
[...] The new study, published in the journal the Lancet Planetary Health, revealed that while most people are eating less red and processed meat compared to a decade ago, they are eating more white meat.
High consumption of red and processed meat can increase the risk of health problems including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and even certain cancers.
Meat production also has a higher environmental impact - producing more planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions - than other types of agriculture and food production.

Stupid brinkmanship over Jahnson wanting to renege on the Brexit deal he signed - at any cost. Pretty much guaranteed that the UK will soon lose both Northern Ireland and Scotland within 15 years.
And lets not forget it's still Plague Island.

If they were smart they'd just turn Scotland loose with a hearty pat on the back - and send the scots irish (Northern Ireland) with them. Let Scotland chew on that while the UK settles down to chat with the Free Wales Army and the Oo-arr-eh (Free Kernow!).
Lothian question? Solved!
