A few journos managed to [get] thru the lib-establishment border control over the press
Writing in his Sun Column Jeremy Clarkson today has 2 separate pops at the BBC's pushing of Climate Alarmist narratives
- "BBC say CC Affects women more" "rubbish my Mrs goes lovely brown in the sun, whilst I shrivel red like a lobster"

\\Well, I went snorkelling with a guide in the Indian Ocean this week and asked how badly the local reefs have been affected by climate change.

“Oh,” he said. “Things were pretty bad ten or 15 years ago but these things are cyclical.
They’re pretty much back to normal now.”

Weird how you never hear this sort of thing on the BBC.//

Sanity from Italy, well done Mr Salvini.

The EU is squealing about what it won't get from the UK.
Italy is squealing about paying for what it has already got from the EU.

If it was a business model for successful customer satisfaction surveys, the EU would fail. But the EU has always prided itself on its own sense of self importance, so won't change its contempt for those with constructive criticism.

Not plug-in though.

Trying to coil even a 30 metre extension lead is not easy.

If the entire US Navy went nuclear electric hybrid, they could be on to something.

Submarines have been hybrid for more than a century. Not plug-in though.

The US Navy has realised that battery power is not even considered reliable by Greenpeace for maritime use

https://www.defensenews.com/naval/2018/03/08/the-us-navy-is-cancelling-a-program-to-turn-gas-guzzling-destroyers-into-hybrids/

"WASHINGTON — The Navy is canceling a program to install fuel-efficient hybrid electric drives in 34 destroyers, leaving only one destroyer with the technology, the Navy confirmed in a statement.

Citing “department priorities,” the service requested $6.3 million for 2018 to finish the installation on the destroyer Truxtun, but has zeroed out funding in 2019 and in the out years. The service has spent about $52 million on the program to date. The whole program was expected to cost $356.25 million, according to the Navy’s FY2017 budget submission."

It is not clear whether "department priorities" involved dealing with the deranged mindset still in North Korea, or the previous occupants of The White House.

Not as quick as a text message or E Mail, but a definite rival to Royal Mail, as they are not used to deliver unwanted junk every day.

"Far more likely Climate Change and lack of sea ice in the Arctic, don't you think?"
No you underestimate the popularity of snowy owls following the fame of Hedwig. Loads of muggles want one.
