Thanks for uploading, this is a lot more "dry and academic" than "Plymouth News Caravan", but isn't bad. The news stories include:

Floods in the UK

Political Debate on artificial insemination

Floods in a country which no longer exists

US President Criticized by US Citizens

Crappy middle east republics and their politics

Car crush in Cuban car race.



Of course, I don't know how much of it is true and how much is lies, but it's not as bad as what the BBC news is like now.



EDIT: NO, I don't watch Al Jazeera. Stop making assuptions.
