Is this planned? Was the gulf destroyed on purpose to stop the fishing industry? Has the nuclear "accident" been an asset to the controllers?

Gentlemen’s clubs are not just strip joints like ‘Spearmint Rhino’ or ‘Stringfellows’, but predominately ‘members-only’ private clubs of the type originally setup for and by English upper class men in the 18th century, and popularised by English upper-middle class men and women in the late 19th century.
