    Reasons to leave the UK number 4,973

    https://news.sky.com/story/scientist...-2030-11186098

    A mini ice age that would freeze major rivers could hit Britain in less than two decades, according to research from universities in the UK and Russia.

    A mathematical model of the Sun's magnetic activity suggests temperatures could start dropping here from 2021, with the potential for winter skating on the River Thames by 2030.

    A team led by maths professor Valentina Zharkova at Northumbria University built on work from Moscow to predict the movements of two magnetic waves produced by the Sun.

    It predicts rapidly decreasing magnetic waves for three solar cycles beginning in 2021 and lasting 33 years.


    Hate the cold, time to emigrate.

    So, how many more reasons do you need before you actually leave?

    (And before you ask, yes, I left Old Blightly many, many moons ago. )

      Leaving isn't the problem. No one needs any more reasons to leave this country.

      The question is where to go.

            I blame Global Warming innit?

                So it would hit the UK only? France would be fine?

                So the UK can re-open the coal mines and burn them all and it will be fine?

                    On the plus side, no need for another Thames Crossing. We can all drive across the surface.
