The Yorkshire retailer had to withdraw its Morrisons Traditional Chicken & Mushroom Pie because some may actually contain fish and mustard. This could pose a health risk to anyone who is allergic to these ingredients which are not labelled on the packs. The 400g pies affected have a use by date of 4th December. The supermarket said: Morrisons is recalling the above product because it may contain mustard and fish that are not declared on the label. "This means the...
The world's deepest living fish has been discovered living in the darkness more than eight kilometres below the surface. Named the Mariana snailfish, the translucent, scaleless fish exist at such depths that the water pressure is the equivalent of an elephant standing on your thumb. They are the top predator in their dark world, living off tiny crustaceans and shrimp at depths nearly as far down as Mount Everest is high. Researchers recover a trap after it landed on the...
A homeless charity has branded a business responsible for a security system that barks at people in a doorway and threatens to call the cops as 'sad'. The bizarre alarm system is triggered when passersby step into the sheltered doorway of an office block in Glasgow. When set-off, a loud voice blares through the speakers, saying: "You have been detected in an unauthorised area, please leave the area or the police will be called - CCTV is recording". A pressure...
Litter on Britain's beaches is up 10 per cent in just one year to its worst ever levels, prompting calls for a tax on waste. More than 700 bits or rubbish were found, on average, on every 100 metres cleaned as conservationists accused many people of treating our shores as a "big dustbin."

New species can develop in as little as two generations and the findings would have left Charles Darwin excited , researchers revealed. Scientists say the arrival 36 years ago of a strange bird to a remote island in the Galapagos provides direct genetic evidence of their claims. The newcomer, which belonged to one species, mated with a member of another species on the small island of Daphne Major in the Pacific Ocean. This produced a new species, known as the...
The price of energy is a topic which has caused great controversy in the UK in recent years. Many believe it to be overpriced, and with utilities serving as one of the main overheads for UK businesses, it is safe to assume that they are paying a fortune for their electricity. With so many different energy sources, including imported energy, nuclear, renewables and fossil fuels such as coal and gas, the cost of energy can differ depending on its source....
A rare copy of the first ever atlas of England and Wales has sold for more than £100,000 at auction. Christopher Saxton was a Yorkshire-born surveyor who is known as the ‘father of English cartography’.
