Why Won’t the Greens Do Anything Useful?
Pictures of Green MPs wearing scarves supporting Palestinians abound this week, after the terrorist group Hamas committed war crimes in their extreme terror attacks on Israel and Jewish Israeli citizens. It never seems to occur to them that the Palestinians committing the attacks are terrorists and the aggressors in these
China’s Emissions Exceed the Entire Western World’s
As the Learjets and limousines warm up for yet another elite climate beano, it must be asked: why would any sane Western nation sign up to yet another such declaration of mass lunacy? Just because the climate botherers are slumming it in manky ol’ Glasgae rather than the usual glittering,
Boris Tries His Vice Anglais on Australia
The French used to refer to sadomasochism as le vice Anglais, hinting that infant exposure to harshly disciplinarian nannies bestowed the English upper-classes with a fetish for sexual humiliation. Watching the sad decline of Prince Harry – once a hulking, military blue-blood, now a snivelling, wet ginger, a George Roper in

Boris the Crazy Green Giant
Whatever happened to Boris Johnson? When British voters went to the polls in 2019, they overwhelmingly rejected the reactionary leftism of Jeremy Corbyn and elected what they apparently thought was a conservative government. But, as happened in Australia from 2015 to 2018, voters who thought they were getting a conservative,

Genghis Khan: Environmental Hero and Climate Activist
One of the most eye-opening conversations I’ve ever had was with a certain political figure, a heavyweight in the left wing of the Australian Labor Party. This fellow was holding forth on the alleged ecological calamities engulfing Mother Gaia and, as eco-tastrophists will, opined that the only way to
Weather Eye with John Maunder
John Maunder The chart below shows that since 1979, when reliable satellite observations became available, there has been little overall trend in the average tropospheric temperatures, apart from milder/warmer temperatures since about 1997, and two significant warm periods associated with the El Nino events in 1998 and 2015-16 The
