Why are climate alarmists so impervious to facts, so averse to rational cost-benefit analysis? It has all the hallmarks of a religious cult, says James Allan. They can't let it go because it gives meaning to their lives.

There's a climate emergency, so cough up, say insurers. It hasn't stopped them raking in billions, notes Chris Morrison. And no wonder: weather losses are actually down compared to 35 years ago. Time for a bit of honesty?

AT LAST Monday’s meeting of Galway City Council two of Michael D’s Labour councillors joined with FG and FF councillors to defeat an emergency motion tabled by Clr Catherine Connolly, calling for the severing of Diplomatic Relations with Israel.

Clr Connolly had tabled a motion similar to that adopted by Sligo County Council earlier in the day - “That the Council condemns in the strongest possible terms the slaughter of International human rights activists by the Israeli military and further we request our Government to sever all diplomatic relations with the Israeli regime.”

When the vote was called on Clr Connolly’s motion two of Michael D’s Labour comrades, Clr Niall McNelis and Clr Derek Nolan joined with FG and FF councillors in voting down the motion to sever diplomatic relations with Israel.

So much for Michael D’s bastion of socialism!
