Accidental leak of British nuclear submarine secrets

Secret information about the UK's nuclear-powered submarines was published on a website. Due to a technical error paragraphs of a Ministery of Defence report which were appeared to have blacked out, could in fact be read by anyone who copied and pasted them into another document. The document involved was an assessment drawn up by the head of the defence nuclear safety regulator, Commodore Andrew McFarlane, concerning options for the reactors in future submarines to replace the trident fleet. The document has now been properly covered up, but will be considered about the fleet’s ability to withstand a catastrophic accident.

I think that these documents should be treated more careful. This document could be really interesting for enemies of the UK and what can release into something we don’t want to happen. So in my opinion all these information should be kept more save and be checked on their safety system. Hopefully the MoD have act on this accident, so that we can assume that something similar as this is not to happen again.

Grand National 'on a par with bullfighting' after deaths

The Grand National, the most legendary steeplechase of Britain, has been compared to Spanish bullfighting. The organizers have kept responsible of  animal cruelty as 2 horses died during the race last Saturday.  Due to a sweltering heat and an unusual  firm ground only 19 horses finished instead of 40. The animals were so exhausted that even the winning horse was not able to be ridden into the winner's enclosure. The protest group Animal Aid want the event to be banned. They think that the horses who have died on the Grand National since 2000, did not die of accidents but was entirely predicted.

My Opinion:

The Grand National is one of the most famous British traditions which was organized for the first time in 19th century. Same as the bullfighting in Spain this tradition has been going on for years. However, tradition or not, animal safety should have the main priority. From experience I know that sweltering heat asks a lot of energy from the horses.  So in my opinion the organizers should consider the circumstances were in these horses has to perform and then there will be no need  that this tradition should not be banned.
