Let?s Spare the Environment From the Greens Thu Apr 18, 2024 17:00 | Alan Bunce
From the 3,200 acre solar farm built on prime green belt farmland in Oxford to the 16 million Scottish trees felled to make way for wind farms, somehow we have to save the environment from the greens, says Alan Bunce.

The Insane World of Intersectional Climate Change Thu Apr 18, 2024 15:00 | Steven Tucker
Why are the mainstream media suddenly desperate to spuriously link climate change to unrelated woke issues like transgenderism? 'Intersectionality' is to blame for the insanity, says Steven Tucker.

Warming up after in the community centre
It ain't over yet................. watch this space!
I saw one in Hackney London - same kind of thing bunch of tower blocks coming down . I'm sure other readers remember the Ballymun tower come down very neatly . Just in case you didn't see it - there's a video at this link so you can appreciate how neatly a building comes down thanks to a controlled demolition. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/69007 I'd go out on a limb here & suggest that if you ever find yourself the manager or architect of a very large building in a built up urban area you might like to worry about what would happen if that building was struck by an armoured seagull or albatross flying off course during the heated mating season. Build explosives into the frame of the building - but for God's sake don't let the workers in the building (or more realistically) the leaseholders of floor space in the building know about the explosive charges. Sure they won't need to know about them. But one day they might be very glad the building they're escaping from came down very neatly ....... Won't stop people thinking it's suspicious afterwards though. Because that'sa the sort ofworld welive in. Tower blocks only come down very neatly in controlled demolitions. And if you go check out the site of this very neat controlled demolition with an infra-red scan - you'll find very hot spots which could only have been caused by explosives. Not seagulls, not armoured albatrosses & not fireworks. Which are almost illegal in Ireland. Make sure there's someone over 18 with a foreign passport holding your sparkler.
