offsite link We Are All Slowly Being Driven Mad Fri Dec 26, 2025 11:00 | Guy de la B?doy?re

Prof James Alexander was somewhat alarmed to find his work cited in an academic article linking climate scepticism with the far-Right. Why can't they just admit there's a scientific disagreement?

state proportionately twice the amount that the Irish government is extracting
from the Shell-led consortium that is exploiting the Corrib gas field. Ghana,

multinationals are also liable to a 50 per cent profits tax.
