£6.5 million to confirm the f--king obvious! Who is paying for that?
Us?


Also didn't notice "part of"?

As in:
"The wave was produced ..." as part of a £6.5m project financed by
cutting useless little bits of more interesting weather items such as
Weatherview as well as closing down the regional weather centres.."?

"non-producer"?
