Here is an anti-migrant post. I am opposed to uncontrolled mass immigration. That is a legitimate opinion, widely shared, & I have every right to hold that view & to express it. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/…

So let’s get this straight. The move to EVs will mean cleaner air. Cleaner air allows more solar radiation to reach the surface. Which accelerates global warming. So if you drive a petrol car, you’re helping to fight global warming. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/1…

On the contrary, Chris, it absolutely confirms my narrative. I have nothing against renewables of they’re affordable. But the disaster of Net Zero speaks for itself. Arbitrary targets & prices created by people with no understanding (like Miliband) are folly.

I concur with that view. Humbly, I would add: withdrawing from the ECHR and the Refugee Convention, enforcing maximum border control, deporting all illegal migrants asap (the Trump-way), adopting zero-tolerance policies for crimes committed by non-citizens, and conducting a major…

Perfect Kipling quote in this worrying but timely piece by Dan Hannan. Maybe time for a Kipling revival? telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/2…

Fancy paying £12 billion plus a year to turn off “renewables”? That’s Miliband’s lunatic Net Zero plan. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/2…

Sea level rise is about 5" per century or a little over 1mm per year. Ignore the scaremongers and have a great weekend.

In a propaganda article about Boston sea levels, the Guardian buries a key fact down in the seventh paragraph: "Sea levels have risen 25cm over the past century but half of that is from subsidence". theguardian.com/environment/20…

David Frost in the Telegraph. It's clear that DESNZ have a policy of lying about the cost of renewables. If they told the truth Net Zero would be over.
