Brexit, for once some facts.
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
Probably cause we are surrounded by water with cold air drifting down from the north and warm up from the south, lots of precipitation etc, those Tornados are only tiny though. I saw a small one many years ago in Westbury I think it was whilst on a train, It was sucking all the dust up from farm fields as it moved across.
From that link:
During that period the country experienced an average of 34 tornadoes every year.
Whereas...
An average of 132 tornadoes touch Texas soil each year. The annual total varies considerably, and certain areas are struck more often than others. Tornadoes occur with greatest frequency in the Red River Valley of North Texas.

Certainly seems more likely, can't imagine how Manchester University arrived at their conclusion, but I remember it getting a lot of publicity when it was first announced a few years ago. Strange that it wasn't challenged then.
But of course the Texas numbers might be Trump facts.

I guess it depends on what you see as a Tornado, size wind speed etc.

Britain's 'Tornado Alley' revealed: Home Counties most at risk
Scientists have studied the most vulnerable tornado locations in Britain. London to Reading was found to have a 6% chance of a tornado (artist's illustration shown).
Maybe if we worked it out as tornadoes per square mile?Certainly seems more likely, can't imagine how Manchester University arrived at their conclusion, but I remember it getting a lot of publicity when it was first announced a few years ago. Strange that it wasn't challenged then.

Texas is BIG!
How about taking a leaf from Hancock's guide to statistics and counting tornadoes more than once if more than one person saw them?
And fail to identify 33% of them.
Strange that Soundwave - a few weeks ago you seemed to be denying that that there was a problem with Covid-19 and that hospitals were empty. Changed your mind now?

The Germans are doing so well that they can go on holiday from Monday. I believe 11000 are due to fly to Majorca, and more to other destinations.
I think you are right and I’m wrong on this one. I don’t agree with him, but I do like to hear other opinions. It’s essential.
As we get closer to No Deal is some common sense finally staring to emerge from this government.
Brexit: Checks on EU imports to be phased-in amid coronavirus crisis
Ministers say it will give firms "time to adjust" as UK formally rules out extending transition period.

Given this evidence regarding how inept the government is, how can anyone, anywhere, possible believe that they will make a good & successful job of Brexit?
In fact, inept isn’t the right word, it doesn’t adequately describe how badly the government is performing. The terrifying thing is that Matt Handcock stands at the podium, waving his arms around & applauding himself, set against a backdrop of nearly 70000 dead.
Does this mean that stuff coming in from the EU will be waved through tariff free because it’s difficult to check, and we’ve got nobody clever enough to work out how to do it? But our stuff going into the EU will be checked and subject to tariffs, because they are clever and can work it out?As we get closer to No Deal is some common sense finally staring to emerge from this government.

This sounds like another instalment of the COVID Franchise:- Coronavirus 2 The Massive Trade Fuckup. Featuring Alok Sharma & Directed by Boris Johnson.
Have you noticed he can't say the words up or down now without moving his right arm up or down even when up or down is related to something totally different to CV.
I bet there are times when he thinks to himself why on earth did I agree to join BJs shambles cabinet. I could have had a nice cushy number like Jeremy Hunt, heading up some parliamentary committee. Get to ask the Government some awkward questions, make myself look a hero and land myself some profitable directorships when all this is over.
