The Met Reporter.: UK is more corrupt than Qatar.

Sunday 14 November 2010

UK is more corrupt than Qatar.

The 2010 International Corruption Index, a controversial assessment of perceived levels of corruption placed UK in 20th position below Qatar, a gas/oil export country. This is a step down from the UK's 2009 result.

The famous Eye Witness at the Triangle news report. 1911 New York

Eyewitness at the Triangle

by William G. Shepherd

I was walking through Washington Square when a puff of smoke issuing from the factory building caught my eye. I reached the building before the alarm was turned in. I saw every feature of the tragedy visible from outside the building. I learned a new sound--a more horrible sound than description can picture. It was the thud of a speeding, living body on a stone sidewalk.

Thud—dead, thud—dead, thud—dead, thud—dead. Sixty-two thud—deads.
