I'm reminded of how the repercussions of this 1066 battle at Hastings are with us today in Britain. Gregory Clark in 'The Son also rises' shows by genealogical tracking how, following this successful French invasion, the fami

Is this the UK or US edition? It's always easy fun to have a go at the Daily Mail which presumably you read regularly else you wouldn't be commenting. Its sin seems to be that it's not a serious broadsheet. It's a tabloi

Not to make money? Is that true in the US? London UK does just that. In toto, the London Councils (2018-2019) took in more than 700 million pounds and spent around 270 million running the service.

True of course. I've seen estimates of about 10% (your link quotes 11%) of children (i.e., 90% of children don't have it) but the obvious question is on what basis what the diagnosis made? You can guarantee that only a few of thos
