Possible it’s changed since you cancelled but when I signed up last month the email address (which@which.co.uk) was printed in the jacket around the first magazine they sent. When I emailed to cancel I got a response literally within minute

The "unfavourable trade deal" would be of the kind that could command more support in Parliament, i.e. was more favourable to HMG's position (presumably with the Irish backstop removed, for one). By definition that would mean

Difficult to imagine a jury would have been found which hadn't seen their faces in order to give them a fair trial. The press could have been responsible for the two of them walking free even if there were evidence they had done it.

I think the confusion is around the administrative area versus the geographical - e.g. Upton is a village in its own right, within the parish of Upton-by-Chester [4], on the outskirts of the city of Chester, but within the City of Chester

R-134A has a global warming potential of 1550 over 100 years [1], i.e. about 45 times more effective than methane, so while it's not eating the ozone layer you probably shouldn't be spraying it around by the tonne either. Edit: an
