RSPCA alarmed as new badger culling trials set to go ahead

The RSPCA have said they are alarmed that the badger cull, to try and eradicate bovine TB, is to be restarted in early September after the last one was called off after it was found to be ineffective and inhumane. The RSPCA say that the government should focus on better cattle control measures and cattle husbandry instead of culling the local wildlife. Aug 23, 2016

Where did it all go wrong for Xiaomi?

Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi, dubbed the ‘Apple of the East’, was once the most valuable startup in the world.
