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?

The High Court meets again on Thursday at 10.00 am. There is confusion about what is preparation, constuction etc. etc. For the lay observer a call to rescind all project consents by the Minister might be in order at this point.
No mention at all of the QRA and if Shell has produced all the documents ordered by the Judge previously. Project splitting comes across as a very primitive procedure in this day and age. Now there are phases as well as splits and one wonders if the Minister has time for all of them and why the project comes in this format. Good job building a house does not come in splits and phases with the planning authorities. Now the floors, now the windows, now the septic tank......! ... read full story / add a comment

This is a compilation of links to many Indymedias,Anarkismo,resistance sites as well as corporate newspaper and T.V channel sites.
My experience at the G8 was liberating as well as intense,relaxing as well as stressful,empowering as well as frightening at times and most of all engendered in me the true meaning of solidarity as thousands upon thousands of activists poured in to resist the 8-man team who think they can destroy OUR world.
Thanks to all in the Iirsh Barrio,the Stirling Eco-Camp and the Scottish people for an unforgettable and educational 10 days.
Solidarity and thoughts to all those arrested trying to stop the gathering of murderers like Bush and Blair in the Highlands of Scotland.

If the brit government really believed and took al-ciaeda threats seriously.

Knowing the fact that they were dealing with rich ruthless disassociated cold blooded killers (trained by our own ruthless dissociated psychopaths at CIA black ops in Afghanistan in the 1980's, programmed and trained to kill and maim Russian soldiers mercilessly).

The security services should have put in place, body frisking and bag searching check points at the entrance of London tubes and on entering buses a long time ago. ... read full story / add a comment

We are the mass.
We make our regimes.

the G8 do not lead the world.
Yet their collective malpractise and tolerance to injustice compounds the poverty which their historical exploitation began.
