A sinister agenda down on the farm

Over the Easter week we are repeating the five most read articles we have published this year. This is No 5 and it was first published on February 22. FARMING in England is facing a crisis as thousands of farmers have accepted government payments of up to £100,000 to leave their land. The Department for […]

The great greenhouse gas numbers game

THERE is a move afoot in the western world which will permanently prevent anyone from having a new idea. It has been tried many times before, mostly successfully. It has been seen operating under the control of common-or-garden varieties of dictators, who proudly boast that 97 per cent of the population loves and agrees with […]

Smoke, mirrors and CO2 emissions

The best way to cut emissions, they say, is to replace […]

The great renewable energy myth

UNFORTUNATELY, much of the Western world has been blindsided by the smoke-and-mirrors approach to science, an arm-waving ‘never mind the quality, feel the width’ approach which has sent many governments dashing down a ‘net zero’ path muttering all sorts of fairy stories. One of these stories is that renewable sources of energy […]

Inundated by ignorance – The Conservative Woman

RECENTLY I wrote an article for TCW about the increasing problem of flooded roads.  Since then an example has occurred which shows how a lack of local knowledge and ignorance of the causes of flooding are contributing to the issue. The A14 is a key cross-country road linking the Midlands and the North to the Haven Ports (Felixstowe […]
