The worst magazine cover ever has given us a brilliant new word meaning dickhead

Yes, not only is there such a publication as Entrepreneur Magazine, but they are trying to make "'trep" a thing

Southern Australia is running out of water fast and Donald Trump thinks China is to blame

A recent academic study predicts that the Australian city of Perth will experience a massive 40% reduction in rainfall

The research concluded that human activity has significantly contributed to the decline in rainfall in Southern Australia. Particularly the manmade increase in greenhouse gases and ozone.

But Donald Trump knows who is really to blame for these so-called "disastrous consequences of climate change":

The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.

Tower Bridge is 120 years old today, but did you know about the time a bus jumped it whilst it was opening?

No, we're not talking about this astonishing special effects sequence from The Spice Girls movie

On 30th December 1952, a number 78 bus was headed north across Tower Bridge just as it was about to open

At the time, when the bridge was about to open one member of staff would ring a bell to clear traffic, then close the gates, then the bridge would open. On this occasion a relief watchman on duty mistakenly started opening the bridge before the all clear had been given - and the bus had already started to cross.

Driver Albert Gunter immediately realised what had happened, and floored the accelerator, crossing a 3 foot gap and dropping 6 feet on to the other side

The bus's conductor broke his leg, but there were no other serious injuries. Gunter got a £10 bonus (the equivalent of about £250 today), and was invited to be the best man at the wedding of one of the passengers, May Walshaw. He modestly insisted that any other driver would have done the same thing.

Happy Birthday Tower Bridge! We hope the next 120 years remain bus almost-disaster free!
