  • “Electric car revolution at crisis point due to charging point shortage” – The world finally wakes up to what every taxi driver already knows about electric cars, according to This is Money.
  • “Conservation needs shooting – it’s time environmental activists understood this truth” – Saving species often involves spilling blood, writes Patrick Galbraith in the Telegraph.
  • “Children forced into face masks after fears teachers might not show up” – Government documents reveal how seriously the Department for Education took threats from unions during pandemic, the Telegraph reports.
  • “Green Energy Revolution? Oil Use Growing at a Million Barrels per Day Per Year?” – Other than the Covid lockdown dip, there is no evidence of a drop in demand for oil, writes Eric Worrall in WUWT.
  • “Greta Thunberg statue costing staggering £24,000 at university sparks outrage as even woke students left furious” – Winchester University’s Greta statue appears to have irritated virtually everyone, according to GB News.
  • “National Maritime Museum declares its failure to ‘reflect the legacies of slavery’ and ‘black voices’… sparking accusation curators are ‘erasing our glorious history with woke nonsense’” – The National Maritime Museum has been slammed after discrediting one of its own galleries because the “legacies” of slavery are “absent” from it, reports the Mail.
