While the politicians wrangle in the halls of the Bella Center in Copenhagen, outside the protestors get the heavy handed police treatment.

My father tells me that when he was a lad they had colder winters with more snow than we do now but I can’t say that I’m acutely aware of winters being shorter or warmer than when I was young. But what is normal? …read more
