offsite link The Truth About Britain?s Wildfires Thu Aug 21, 2025 15:00 | Paul Homewood
It is simplistic to blame the recent spike in wildfires on climate change, writes Paul Homewood. A more likely cause is the rewilding of uplands, supposedly to cut carbon emissions, and poor management of forested land.

The Guardian, of all papers, has acknowledged that predictions about the disappearance of Arctic sea ice may ? just may ? have been exaggerated. Paging Gore Vidal: Can we have that prize back please?

As Director of Public Prosecutions, Keir Starmer urged restraint when it came to prosecuting people for social media posts. Why, then, was the book thrown at Lucy Connolly?

The Climate Change Committee's Fifth Carbon Budget, produced 10 years ago, got its predictions about the price of gas in 2025 and the price of renewables predictably wrong, says Ben Pile.

Finucane decision: Justice is not served

category international | miscellaneous | press release author Wednesday June 27, 2007 12:38author by Seán Ó Murchú - Sinn Féin (Poblachtach) - Cork Report this post to the editors

Statement by Ruairí Ó Brádaigh, President, Republican Sinn Féin

The decision of the British Public Prosecution Service not to prosecute members of the British forces, including the RUC, in connection with collusion in the murder of solicitor Pat Finucane is a political one.

The reason for this ruling is the fear that such proceedings would expose the chain of command right up to the political control which provided direction and funding for such undercover activities.

The motivation given by the PPS is that sufficient evidence is not available. This is so because those involved were careful not to keep records of their secret doings.

Justice is not served by this development.

He had reduced his one line soundbites to one word- 'baffling', 'worrying', etc.
He has openly admitted he does not like being in the Dail too.
This is then the next five years when a struggle for justice is reduced absurdly to one-liners.
This has happened in relation to:
Tara ('snails and archaeology')
The Murder of Pat Finucane.
The Dublin and Monaghan Bombings.
The Stardust Tragedy.

The man has not made one precise or concise statement in maybe five or six years.
He gets Fridays off.
He allows Beverely Cooper-Flynn into the Dail.

Sympathy to the family and Survivors of the Murder of the Human Rights Lawyer
and decent man Pat Finucane and when our present government is finished burying
dissent and truths so it can tailor the future of a nation to a pre-conceived Americanised
notion of 'democracy' we might get some truth for the victims.

RIP
