The Clock is Ticking for the Twelve Million Mark, but How Fast?


Heritage Action's Heritage Journal has a thought-provoking post based on its Erosion Counter figures (pay especial attention to the metal detector disguised as a walking stick - the marketers do not explain how having "detected" something, one would go about getting it out of the ground "without attracting interest". The piece concludes:
Sooner or later someone, irrespective of vested interest, embarrassment or professional loyalty, is going to have to finally openly admit to the public what they increasingly express privately – that the British have made a big mistake and it needs to be rectified. Or will the gap between the breathlessly enthusiastic press releases and the grubby net reality simply be allowed to grow ever wider?
