  • Thousands of people are heading to the Cumbrian village of Appleby this week for the annual Horse Fair, one of Europe's main events for the gypsy and traveller communities. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
    Last summer it was cancelled by the pandemic for only the second time in its centuries old tradition.
    But this year it's back on again, complete with mobile Covid vaccination clinics to encourage people to get protected against a virus which has hit the community hard.

    If only travellers were this quaint all year round, but living in a place where they regularly visit, we know when they turn up, crime jumps, and the places where they have stayed are left looking like tips. For people who care so much about freedom, they sure don't have much respect for the places they visit.

      Belief is the Death of Reason.
      There is no need for "Belief" when Science offers a methodologically understandable way of identifying reality.
      If 9 out of 10 people in a Room ALL believe that 1+1 is 9, it does not change reality. The facts remain. Hence why even The Pope has told the world to take The #ClimateCrisis deadly seriously.
      Religion is barely 2000 years old. Mankind has existed for over 3 million years. That is what is at stake.
