PETITION: STOP ARMING ISRAEL

We must pressure our government to cancel our arms export licence to Israel, which was worth £180m in the period 2008-2012.Recent UK military exports to Israel include F16 fighter jet components, assault rifles, armoured vehicles and ammunition. 31 different UK companies export arms to Israel.
The UK government issued military export licenses to Israel worth £7.8bn in 2013, although this figure is much higher than previous years due export of equipment that the Israeli government claims is for Israeli civilian infrastructure.
Tell our government to 'Stop Arming Israel', sign the petition to hand in to Hugh Robertson, Minister for Middle East.

Korean Food Guide: 44 Things to Eat in Seoul, South Korea and Where to Try Them

Before our trips to Korea, my knowledge of Korean food was pretty much limited to  kimchi ,  bulgogi , and  japchae . My exposure to the cuisine never really went beyond that in spite of having several Korean friends, including a Korean roommate for a couple of years. I think part of it is due to how damn good Korean barbecue is. It’s so delicious that it was pretty much all I ever looked for when eating at Korean restaurants.

Things like  ganjang gejang ,  jokbal , and  naengmyeon aren’t as well known outside of Korea but they are dishes well worth flying for. Ganjang gejang was particularly memorable. After waiting...
