What caused the Great Depression?

Most people would say the stock market crash of 1929. That was probably the No. 1 factor, but the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930 made it worse. The act raised tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods by almost 60%. /1

Today in history, 1960: Harper Lee publishes her first novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. Noted for its treatment of a child’s awakening to racism in the South, the book won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. It was an immediate success, eventually selling more than 40 million copies.

Great to visit our Urban Traffic Control Centre team in the Town Hall — the nerve centre keeping Sheffield moving.

Congestion could cost the UK £21bn a year by 2030. Tackling it is all part of our plan for quicker public transport, fewer delays and a better-connected city

All of the Trump administration officials in question who are attorneys must be disbarred.

This is a sprawling conspiracy to undermine U.S. rule of law that involves attorneys, and that is something my profession cannot allow.

There should be massive state bar investigations across the board here.
