NHS Dumfries of Galloway has confirmed some children’s mental health records have been published by criminals following a cyber attack.
Can't even get the first line of their story correct. Dumfries AND Galloway
The large wind farm off the coast of Aberdeen could power about 70% of the entire city iirc. That was one of the first large offshore windfarms, they'll only get better and more efficient. If large offshore windfarms become more common, then huge swathes of the country will be powered by them.
If we then become reliant on those windfarms (which appears to be part of the long term plan) then putting control of them in foreign hands gives them power over us such as "oops, a cable broke and now your whole city has gone dark, ease off on foreign policy A, or agree to trade agreement B, and we might be able to fix that cable for you"
It's a nationally critical piece of infrastructure, it's strange to source it out of country.
Of course, a UK company could try that kinda stunt as well, but they then need to answer to UK courts. It's less daunting for foreign state run companies as they can pull out of country easier to avoid repurcussions and have the backing of their government.
Calling what a Republic? Rome? There's no other country implied in this meme, but I bet I know exactly which country you're talking about...
To be fair, Ukraine is part of a defense agreement too. A shame one of the signatories is the aggressor...
Even one of the most revered OG dictators who willingly gave up his power after just 16 days was still an asshole.

A benevolent dictator is still a dictator.
Upper middle class is a made-up term to make those in the working class who earn the most think they're not in the same boat as "the poors". If everything comes crumbling down, they'll be waiting in the food lines like the rest of us. Millionaires and billionaires will not have the same problems.
We've seen from things like the Panama Papers that the rich are far richer than they'd have you believe. I'm sure they'll be just fine being taxed a bit more.
Also, £120 billion of pension money is likely to wind up straight back in the pockets of the same billionaires anyway as they own the major companies that pensioners are going to be buying everything from anyway.
Spreading doom and gloom that we'll just all have to suck it up and suffer the consequences of past decisions is a shite position. Don't repeat past mistakes of letting the rich off with it, eat the rich, enjoy retirement at a reasonable age, spread socialism.
What shit did they pull with their app?
Software as a Service for those ignorant like I was and had to Google what SaaS meant
What a way to phrase the headline. We hopefully won't have any nuclear winters!

Let the people who installed/created it maintain it or let a bunch of new folk do it, which is likely to work best?
The abroad part isn't the issue. We're a global village with the Internet now, after all. It's the outsourcing part that's the issue.
