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 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.

28th ANNUAL HUNGER STRIKE MARCH TO TAKE PLACE IN BUNDORAN

The 1981 H-Block Martyrs Committee of Bundoran and Ballyshannon have announced that the annual Hunger Strike Commemoration March will take place on Saturday, 29th August at 3p.m. assembling at the East End of Bundoran, Co. Donegal.

The Guests of Honour are the families of the martyred Hunger Strikers.

This year's speakers are to be Galway County Councillor Tomás Ó Curraoin, ex-PoW Stephen Daly from County Tyrone, Cait Trainor from County Armagh, and Bob Loughman of the Emerald Society Police Band in New York.

The organisers of the march have said that “This year we will be focusing our attention particularly on the alarming situation in the Six Counties where internment by remand has increasingly become a tool of the Crown to silence their opponents. However, we in Bundoran shall not be silenced. We shall continue to herald the true Republican message from the platform.

“There are still Republican prisoners and always will be so long as the British presence remains in Ireland.”

Ballad sessions shall be held in the Spinning Wheel at 9p.m. on Friday, 28th August (Colm Woods) and in the Ballroom of the Holyrood Hotel on Saturday, 29th August (Liam Bridgeman).
