Good find mate!

Why is it only in one newspaper though? I am sceptical of The Daily Fail, and The Sun, but sometimes they do bring something decent to the forefront.

Oddly, we're also late for a financial depression too (no joke, it's a 75 year cycle).

Could be interesting watching the world survive a solar cycle maximum and a depression together.

Second choice then haha.

To be fair, it would be fascinating to watch things unravel and see stuff change so drastically.

It would definitely be scary stuff.
