The media are wrong to pin the blame for the Canadian Conservatives' loss on Trump, says Prof James Allan. In truth, the Tories' vote was sky high ? but the Left-wing vote coalesced around Carney.

Has Tony Blair really turned on Net Zero? A close reading reveals the master of spin speaking out of both sides of his mouth, green fanaticism undimmed. Tony Blair will never be the solution to Ed Miliband, says Ben Pile.

Kneecap's vocal support for Hamas and call for fans to murder Tory MPs is obviously reprehensible. But it's just for show, says Andrew Doyle. The police shouldn't waste their time investigating rappers.

EPA grants Shell an IPPC licence

category international | environment | opinion/analysis author Wednesday November 14, 2007 20:03author by EPA Report this post to the editors

Was it a stitch up, or are the emissions really harmless?

The EPA announced yesterday that it has granted a IPPC licence to operate a controversial refinery at bellanaboy Co. Mayo.
This has been described as "very sad day for Erris" by Mary Corduff and John Monaghan http://www.corribsos.com/index.php?id=1629

But what does it mean for the project as a whole, and the attempts been made by shell-to-sea to have the refinery sited offshore.
There is no doubt that the granting of the licence is a huge step forward for the "project", but is it the deathnell for the Shell-To-Sea campaign?
A spokesperson for the campaign has stated they are examining legal options including judicial review of the decision or bringing a case to Europe.
