Would you trust the Government to read your bank statements without your knowledge or permission?

The proposals in the Data Protection and Digital Information Bill look to be an excessive intrusion into people's privacy and very largely unnecessary.

We don't need a pandemic treaty, do we even need the WHO?

I was WHO cancer chief, the organisation is riddled with incompetence and cronyism.

Let's share information, best practice and supplies where needed - we don't need to be forced to do so.

Car insurance is now a massive scam - and is being used as a backdoor way of forcing poorer motorists off the roads, as costs associated with the radical 'green' agenda are loaded on. It should be voluntary, so no one is forced to pay. theguardian.com/money/2024/apr…

A very concerning story from The Times and The Sunday Times - building on my previous research for Adam Smith Institute, we will likely see an increase in migration from private to state becuase of the proposed VAT raise, or greater strain on households young and old.

'And if our resources are controlled by a tiny cabal of plutocrats, bankers and corporations; can we honestly say that our economies are being run for us? Could things not be a little bit more, well, democratic?'

Ah, I see where this is going. Political control of everything.

I am the Environment Editor of the Daily Sceptic.

I can confirm that I have not received a single benefit from fossil fuel companies

Apart from trading with them to keep me warm, mobile and supplied with countless life enhancing products

Apart from that, absolutely nothing

Perspective on Electricity Storage in UK

The 'Biggest Battery in Europe' is installed at Cottingham, nr Hull

It cost £75,000,000 (say 90,000,000 Euros/Dollars)

It takes 5 acres of land

And could power the UK's national electricity grid for just 15 seconds before going flat

Net Zero is obliterating manufacturing in Britain by making energy more expensive here than almost anywhere else

Support for renationalising rail / water tends to stem from the idea that politicians will be more likely to invest in these areas than chief executives. It's almost certainly not the case.

What is going on in confused minds that come up with such slogans? The word “Climate Justice” in itself is already nonsense, but to link it to “Free Palestine” is simply utter nonsense.
