The West's headlong rush to jettison fossil fuels and hit 'Net Zero' CO2 emissions is impoverishing us while enriching China, which is ramping up its coal-fired industry to sell us all the 'green' technology.

'Populists' like Donald Trump and Nigel Farage are a "threat to democracy", chant the mainstream media. In fact, they are just reminding our politicians what they are supposed to be doing, says Prof James Alexander.

Myself and a few friends joined the Dublin Shell to Sea solidarity demo outside the GPO today for this brave lady. It was well attended and we were glad to be there to show our support.

Thank you Madame K for bringing us this interview with Maura Harrington.

I admire Maura for her stance, I salute her courage and her convictions but I sincerely hope she will not pay the ultimate price for them. Solidarity indeed, but from a sad heart who cant believe it has come to this. Shame on Shell, shame on this Govt, shame, shame. What a disgrace to humanity they truly are.

Please keep us updated on how she is. May her spirit remain strong and unbroken And may she come off the hunger strike soon with a successful outcome!
