This is an interesting study but historians came to this same conclusion a decade or more ago.
Climate data offers clues to what might have happened to people of the Indus River Valley during the civilization’s existence between 3000 and 1000 B.C. and how that might relate to our own warming world.
Scientists may have solved why this ancient, advanced civilization vanished

Unsurprising given other similar arguments they've made recently but still shocking to see figures within government argue that scrapping the two-child benefit cap would be bad because it would increase racism. A new thing to blame ethnic minorities for in this country!

I maybe wouldn't claim to be the biggest fan of Rachel Reeves, but to be fair, she showed admirable patience with Laura Kuenssberg as she wrecked a potentially interesting interview in the name of chasing a gotcha

Having read the legislation, I'm concerned about the potential for a future government to use it to punish welfare recipients supporting groups of which it disapproves. In the UK, thousands of people have been arrested under "anti-terrorism legislation" for holding signs supporting Palestine Action.

How absurd is it that people in the UK are still being arrested under “terrorism” charges for supporting Palestine Action, a non-violent group that disrupted the weapons industry, yet you can support the occupation in the UK, a pro-violent group committing terrorism daily, and be completely fine.

From all that I have seen, Palestine Action is just a group of people who want another group of people to NOT BE MURDERED INDISCRIMINATELY.
There is nothing threatening about that unless you like to MURDER INDISCRIMINATELY.
