Opinion

Re: Congratulations on reaching milestone, January 9 letter.

Sadly Clive, this publication is not one of the remaining bastions of free speech. In particular, Jeremy has a blind spot with climate change, banning any factual/evidential/scientific discussion on the issue that doesn’t conform to the common narrative.

For him and those of a similar persuasion, this approach is undermining their cause. Lack of public discussion is causing more people to be sceptical of the alarmism, especially as few (if any) of the wild predictions made over the last three decades have actually come to pass.

The media are almost entirely complicit in this deception, and would win back readers of all ages and interests should they return to balanced reporting and in doing, seeking of the truth.
