Built on the old Whitmans Laboratories site in Frenchmans Road, it opens tomorrow at 8am. In other news, as The Two Ronnies would put it: November 1st to 4th 2022, Rishi Sunak announces he will not attend COP27, then U-turns to say he will; 8th November, in the US the much promised red wave became a trickle as the Republicans gained a narrow majority in the House and the Democrats retained the thinnest of majorities in the Senate; 11th the Ukrainians retake the city of Kherson; 13th, 8 dead in Istanbul bombing; 15th, the population of the world reaches 8 billion; November 20th, the FIFA World Cup begins in Qatar; 24th, widespread anti-lockdown protests in China; and 30th, the late Queen's lady-in-waiting Lady Susan Hussey has apologised and resigned after she repeatedly asked a black British charity boss where she was "really" from.
