The Wall Street Journal (Europe), 13/09/2012, p.19, David Crawford; Laura Stevens

Stealth fighters rail against concentration on the quiet
Times Higher Education, 13/09/2012
Restricting extra Government funding for open-access publishing to 30 research-intensive universities is another example of "research concentration by stealth", smaller institutions have complained. The list includes all of the Russell Group save the London School of Economics, but only four of the 15 remaining members of the 1994 Group of smaller research-intensives. How the money will be split has not yet been decided.

Robert Halfon: Whistle-blower admits - "oil fraud is pumping up petrol prices"
ePolitix.com (Web), 13/09/2012, Unattributed
Tory MP Robert Halfon claims petrol prices are "crushing Britain" and creating a poverty trap, as he demands an investigation of the "oil cartels" not just from the Office of Fair Trading - but from the Financial Services Authority as well.
