The Truth About Britain?s Wildfires Thu Aug 21, 2025 15:00 | Paul Homewood
It is simplistic to blame the recent spike in wildfires on climate change, writes Paul Homewood. A more likely cause is the rewilding of uplands, supposedly to cut carbon emissions, and poor management of forested land.

The Guardian, of all papers, has acknowledged that predictions about the disappearance of Arctic sea ice may ? just may ? have been exaggerated. Paging Gore Vidal: Can we have that prize back please?

The Climate Change Committee's Fifth Carbon Budget, produced 10 years ago, got its predictions about the price of gas in 2025 and the price of renewables predictably wrong, says Ben Pile.

I bolted up there on my 2pm work lunch break and missed y'all. Great action, keep on keeping on.
For an entirely secret action organised with no advance publicity looks like they got 15-20 within an hour or two by the photos -
An excellent turn out and reflective of widespread support still to me!
More action lets take it to shell!

"Solidarity is strength"
Then I think these photos show how weak solidarity is for the dublin shell to sea campaigners............
"The Norwegian Embassy is in your back yard."
^^^^^^^^^
they might be getting lonely around there, Shell HQ. is one step off putting couches in the lobby for S2S.
addressing the sell off of irish resources is one of the aims of the shell to sea campaign, which would be one of the reasons that your namesake isn't too happy with the shell to sea campaign and his media outlets are so eager to see shell succeed
I sick to the teeth of talk of norway being the loose link in the chain. The norgweigen government are not saints or socialists, if there's money to be made they'll stick to it.
From reading here and listening to the audio it's clear this action wasn't to do with the Shell To Sea campaign but rather to raise interest in the sell off of our natural resources.
Well done Dublin.
The Achilles Hell of the Bellanaboy Project is Statoil and the Norwegians' sense of fair play.
The Norwegian Embassy is in your back yard.
Need I say more?
A few photos on a bright day in late March
Banners on the roof, placards in the door
Reflecting on the great gas rip off
How many weeks were we staying?
Leaving the building
Coming down off the roof
The occupation ended at 1.30 with the 10 occupiers leaving the building and the roof. There were no arrests, apparently the Gardai calmed down once some Gardai who were used to protests arrived on the scene.
Solidarity still needed down here.
Unfolding the banner
the message
Short audio update saying that a large number of Special Branch (secret police) and public order unit have arrived and tried to intimidate supporters outside.
Shell Occupation update
Just got off the phone to an pccupier,they are happy enough inside but are ery in need of numbers outside in case there is an attempt to remove them..
Solidarity is strength!
Received the following SMS
Shell Headquarters @ Leeson street bridge currently occupied by protesters inside and on roof. Solidarity urgently required, numbers needed outside - PLS FWD-Solidarity!
