Octopus CEO Greg Jackson has blamed Ed Miliband's "broken energy system" for Britain's sky-high energy costs. Too right, says Paul Homewood. So why does he still back renewables?

One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

Ben Ansell, in Why Politics Fails, outlines "five traps of the modern world and how to escape them". Professor James Alexander wonders how he can escape yet another book that tries to save the world with Left-wing dogma.

Jim,
Its absolutely ridiculous to suggest we support Hamas. I went out protesting against the slaughter in Gaza.

You also look at the situation in Gaza in such a narrow view. There is a reason Hamas were voted into power. Its because the secular movement achieved nothing, because Israel gave them nothing. I dont support Hamas, but should I just sit back and forget about it.

Its disgusting to think that people like you, living in a liberal democracy such as ours, have such warped views.

Jim, I don't think the dead children had such views did they?

It's just a shame that the protests were by secular liberals who are pro-human rights, pro-gay, pro-women, pacifist and socialist democratic who somehow see no irony is supporting Hamas who are religious zealots, anti-democratic, anti-socialist, murderously homophobic, support the oppression of women and use political violence to achieve their aims.
