One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after;
that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life  (Psalm 27:4)

Spare Us the Smug Piety of Celebrities  (29 December 2015)

"What is it about actors and comedians that deludes so many of them into thinking that are great political luminaries? ... almost every day we hear the puerile Left-wing witterings of second-rate clowns and 'celebrities' ... The problem with gilded multi-millionaire celebrities like Mr. Sheen and his chums is that they are obsessed with trendy Third World causes ... having been feted and cosseted for so long, they are completely detached from the real world..."

The EU Is to Blame for Britain's Flood Disaster  (28 December 2015)

Northern Britain has spent Christmas being inundated with floods of 'biblical proportions'. For Green activists like Bill McKibben this is obviously another consequence of man-made climate change. And the politicians agree ... All have suggested that the floods are the result of unprecedented 'extreme weather events' whose consequences are quite beyond their control. Either they are ignorant or lying or buck-passing - or all three..."

What the Authorities Won't Tell You About the Floods  (26 December 2015)

"Amid all the devastation and recrimination over the floods in Cumbria hardly anybody mentions one factor that may not be the sole cause, but certainly hasn't helped, and that is the almost complete cessation of dredging of our rivers since we were required to accept the European Water Framework Directive (EWF) into UK law in 2000. Yet until then, for all of recorded history, it almost went without saying that a watercourse needed to be big enough to take any water that flowed into it, otherwise it would overflow and inundate the surrounding land and houses..."

European Union Was Reason for the Biblical Floods in Somerset  (14 March 2014)

"The Somerset levels, ... are still partly flooded with the water level slowly inching downwards as the huge Dutch pumps do their job. But for thousands the task of cleaning up the heartbreaking mess and the ruined homes left behind will take many weeks, even months..."

Cameron at His Disingenuous Worst With Floods Pledge  (13 February 2014)

"David Cameron today once again successfully failed to bang on about Europe, as he said Britain has 'to do better as a country' to protect itself from future floods, ... No doubt those people of the Somerset Levels who had time to listen in on the radio while trying to cope with flooding, evacuation and the turning upside down of their lives, will have been incredulous when Cameron said that officials are working on a plan to protect the Somerset Levels, although, as he put it, it is still not clear what the best solution for the areas would be. Here's a radical thought, as a starting point, how about a return to the flood prevention activity that was wound down over the years by the Environment Agency to fit a political agenda created through the EU?..."

EU Policy: Deliberately Flooding the Somerset Levels  (03 February 2014)

"It is all very well for Chris Smith, Chairman of the Environment Agency to prattle on about 'difficult choices', and to tell us that 'more must be done to protect the Somerset Levels'. But the flooding crisis over which he is presiding is one which he, at the behest of the EU, has deliberately allowed to happen. Allowing the flooding of the Levels was a matter of EU policy, introduced by a 2007 Directive and consciously adopted by the Environment Agency in 2008, which then sought to increase the frequency of flooding in the area..."

Floods and the EU: Who is To Blame?  (No Date)

"In the latest round of blame there is a new focus on the European Water Framework Directive and in particular the matter of dredging. Could it be that our membership of the EU impacts on our ability to protect homes and livelihoods from flooding?..."

The Green Agenda

"We should all want to be wise and careful stewards of the beautiful planet we call home. But most of us realise that humans in general are not being good stewards. We are wasteful with our natural resources and have reduced biodiversity. Therefore, when we read about groups and organisations calling for a 'green revolution' and a new relationship between humanity and nature it is easy to agree with their ideas. However, certain aspects of the modern green movement that is permeating every segment of our society are not about protecting the environment. You don't have to dig very deep to discover the true beliefs of the influential leaders who are using genuine concerns about the environment to promote an agenda of fear and control..."

The Little Green Book of Eco-Fascism  (2013)

"Do you believe we should bomb our economy back to the dark ages? Carpet our beautiful countryside with bat-chomping, bird-slicing eco-crucifixes? Indoctrinate our kids with scary North Korea-style propaganda nonsense in order to deal with the alleged perils of 'climate change'?  Neither does [this author]..."
