And it is being repeated on every BBC news broadcast exactly as it is written here.

Quote
The drought that has affected parts of England since June will last into next summer if there is insufficient winter rain, the Environment Agency has said.

Well who would have thought it possible. If we don't have enough rain then we'll have a drought but if we have sufficient rain then we will not have a drought.

Are we paying these people for this shit?  cussing:

I would also hazard that, should we have insufficient rain until next summer, the drought may well last beyond next summer.

Had they thought of that, or am I now an 'Expert'?

You may indeed append the title Drought Expert among your many others ....

 I suspect it should go the the right of the CDM and Bar but to the left of the AOB membership
