The Monaco 2050 superyacht private-jet set - Telegraph
Couldn't get the link up from the Guardian, sorry about that. The Telegraph has nothing in its online pages about Bulwark et al; the Govt. must have told them to pull it, as its a pretty bad read I suppose.
But they do have in adverts for super yachts featuring not helicopters but vertical take off jet planes to transport the super-rich about. Which sort of makes me think about where the western world is and its priorities at the moment.
In other newspapers, the plight of North Africa in general is a sobering read.

Not a single column I can see here about the situation facing boat people-so if you are counting on being put off travelling to the coast and heading to Europe, I guess there is nothing to dissuade you. Unless you access the western papers (but not todays Telegraph).
