Scottish & Welsh
devolution has inspired Nottingham's Natural Law Party chairman and Parish
Councillor Andrew Doughty to call for a regional parliament in
Nottingham.
Most bizzarely he also proposes that a "World Tower of Peace" should be built to house the parliament's delegates. The tower would overshadow the city's historic castle. Nottingham's City Planning officials doubt that the tower will go beyond the drawing board. Click below for the latest editorial samples from | ||||||||||||||||||

Edward
Greenwell of the Country Landowners' Association (CLA) says that the
Countryside And Rights of Way Bill "goes too far." Landowners fear that
the bill will only lead to dogs disturbing livestock. Yet the Ramblers'
Association rejects the CLA's concerns.
Ramblers' Association spokesperson Claire Madron feels that there is adequate recourse if ramblers damage land and livestock. The law is otherwise "preventing law-abiding people from using the land," she argues. Click below for the latest editorial samples from | ||||||||||||||||||

Farmers'
incomes have fallen by 45% in the last two years. Subsequently, with no
Government help available, farmers feel ignored and left out of the
e-commerce revolution that could bolster their fortunes.
The e-commerce market is expected to be worth £10bn by the end of the year 2000. Yet the Ministry for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAFF) and the Department of Trade and Industry Industry seem oblivious to farmers' needs to find new ways of marketing their produce.

Boo Hoo It's Dot Gone! | |||||||||||||||||||

The collapse of
e-commerce clothes' trader Boo.com will lead to 300 staff losing their
jobs. The company received 30 offers to buy its business. Yet these offers
were rejected, leading to Europe's first major e-commerce crash. As a
result Boo's staff will only receive redundancy paymentsof just £800
each.
The crash also follows much hype about the industry's future prospects, backed by the Government's initiatives to make Britain the world's centre of e-commece. The result of a collapse in e-commerce stocks has instead added to the market's scepticism. Click below for the latest editorial samples from | ||||||||||||||||||
