As a Yorkie myself I can say with authority that Yorkshire Tea is not only pure crap but it's not from Yorkshire either. Should be banned from calling it that. It's like Newcastle Brown Ale that's brewed in Tadcaster, Yorkshire and not Newcastle. Fosters is brewed in the UK so it's not Australian. Unless Yorkshire Tea use Yorkshire tea leaves then it's just a meaningless name that they use and nothing to do with Yorkshire.
I didn't know there were tea plantations in Yorkshire. Cool.

I hear they have palm trees growing on the Yorkshire Moors too. Global warming is certainly having a rapid impact.

You do realise the planet has been getting warming for millions of years before global warming hysteria was invented !
In another few million years it will be frozen over once again going round and round in a cycle.

Well, actually, no it hasn't.

We do, technically, still live in an ice age.

You do realise that education is not a curse?

Your post and the research I have undertaken leads me to conclude that animal welfare and food standards are decidedly lax in Indonesia and high in Trumpland.
If Indonesia's roadside 'Macken Stalls' are anything like those I remember in Singapore/Malaysia then standards could vary. I recall that "Pop's Curry Shop" in Jalan Kayu, Singapore was regularly put "Off Limits" by The RAF Police because of dodgy ingredients :sick:

Thank Christ for that. Does that mean I can now ignore the last warnings from the US Global Change Research Programme, run by the American Government?

Don't take my word for it ask a former IPCC scientist.
