This is to do with the gravitational pull of the magnetic North Pole apparently.
 
Same as its quicker flying West to East than East to West as the wind is behind you.

No, the DUP banned the southern pole magnetic field, as it comes from the south.
Theresa May signed off on it apparently to form the current government.

Sure the South sea cone snail has the most powerful neurotoxin known to man, acts within 0.2 seconds.

usually means you are dead before you even you'd been stung

In having a look at Wikipedia about these lads, I discovered that they have isolated a painkiller from the magical cone sea snail that is 1000 times more powerful than morphine.

Cole Porter wrote his songs backwards.

The first thing he wrote was the last line.

He then wrote the rest of the song like a crossword puzzle filling in the blanks to get to that final line.
