Is there a more breathtaking sight than Niagara Falls at full, gushing force? There is, actually - the very same falls drained, as they were in 1969.

Seán Burke Brilliant. The prime motivator for me to seek an alternative to selling my dental practice to a young dentist who would have to borrow from a toxic bank. That alternative was employee ownership. EOA @WalesCoOpCentre Smile Together Kirstie Moons

Fantastic news another #community owned pub in Wales! @WalesCoOpCentre @ClaudiaCSWales Tom Addiscott Enjoy the celebrations, you have worked so hard. #comshares #SocEnt #Believe

I sell a eclectic range of small vintage or antique #collectables .
I concentrate on #coin collecting since that is my own passion but I also sell a wide range of other collectables from #militaria to #banknotes .
There should be something for every collector.

Fabulous day. Inspired by our Integrated Wellbeing Networks Gwent with @WalesCoOpCentre #RiscaHackofKindness and all the wonderful community wellbeing ideas from the groups. Thanks too Community Volunteers Wales. Then a great session on Universal Basic Income through UBI Lab Caerphilly. Radical ideas for wellbeing all round.

The teaching of economics has been a catastrophe. It is a subject that overlooks the real factors that drive prosperity and produces graduates who are more selfish and amoral - many of whom now dominate corporate and political elites
