The Extreme Weather We?re Experiencing Is Not Man Made, According to the IPCC Sun Jul 28, 2024 07:00 | Mark Ellse
Day-to-day weather, with all its extremes, is "just weather", according to the IPCC. With their authority onside, we can shrug off the BBC's melodramatic climate reports and misinformation, says Mark Ellse.

The sweeping House of Commons reforms proposed by Green MP Ellie Chowns are evidence that the Mrs Dutt-Pauker types have moved from Peter Simple's columns into public life. We're in for a bumpy ride, says Sean Walsh.

So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by £300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

Like Hello???
Do we get in "irish tricolour" land get a look-in on impeaching Blair???
Isn't it a bit odd that a former director of SAS is calling for impeachment supporting this site with a flag which is still the cause of improperly resolved conflict on our island???
I'm very upset. I'm going to write a letter.
Interesting to see how the Guardian leader takes a swipe at Michael Rose and his military record rather than evaluating the facts. The Guardian itself has a case to answer for its unswerving support for Blair throughout this murderous war - more of which is evident in the link given above - particularly in the attempt to depict Blair as having faced an unusually difficult dilemma when in fact he did not. The decision to invade had already been taken - one among many points that Blair apologists refuse to confront. At least we can take heart from the fact that The Guardian has lost many readers because of its editorial policy on the Iraq issue.
Many members of the Stop War Coalition are currently employed by The Guardian & were so previously as well. Perhaps one of the most prominent is Steve Bell the cartoonist. & I am very endeared to Steve for many of his cartoons.
The Guardian has engaged others of obvious anti-War bias recently perhaps most noteworthy the Iraqi bloggist "salam pax", and on many occasions has pushed its power to the limits of D notice to continue as much as is possible "fair and objective reporting" on the so-called "War on Terror".
In fact, "The Guardian" is right up there with "Liberation" as the two single commercial news organisations I am still happy to link to. I have stopped supporting Italy's "Unita" in the same timespan.
Though I have had problems with both "guardian" & "liberation" in 2005, I thought to link those problems as reflective of greater and wider issues on Media control & at a time of _considerable threat & crises_ Liberation "kept an eye" on The Guardian which *mainstreamed* material published on indymedia networks.

In short I've enjoyed a certain relationship with "Farringdon Road" for many years now, certainly as far back if not further than the RTS! events of the late 90s, and almost accepted a job w/ 'em in 2004 but it would have meant going to live in Lahndin. So I understandably said "I refuse to work for a rag which consistently displayed anti-Oirsh prejudice in the 70s and 80s". But that alas, is another axe to grind, and not the one I believe you Miriam are brandishing.
:-) After all : You have to remember "the G" was chosen by both Rose to mirror his Radio4 interview & not the Telegraph which is the traditional paper of the British military.
