Dirty Harry

“PRINCE” Harry never was the sharpest pencil in the box. More of a crayon.

He founded a company to make travel more sustainable. Except he uses fuel-guzzling private jets like buses.

A night out for Harry and Meghan involves a limo to the airport, then an oil heir’s luxury plane to Vegas and back.

All while tut-tutting about the carbon footprint of lesser mortals.

It was exactly such hypocrisy which sowed the first doubts about the couple.

How can they lecture anyone on the climate when their own carbon use dwarfs that of the average Brit?

Curb this mob

THERE’S only one conclusion from the pro-Palestine mob refusing a police request to postpone their demo this Saturday: They relish the predicted mayhem.

It is, as Rishi Sunak says, provocative and disrespectful to hold it on Remembrance Day. And police now say “the risk of violence and disorder is growing”.

Organisers have had repeated weekends to make their “point” about Gaza.

Each protest has attracted hordes of dangerous Islamist morons. The blatant racism has British Jews living in fear.

Remembrance Day is sacrosanct. It must not be violated by their thuggery.

If the Met will not apply to outlaw this protest entirely it must get vast numbers of cops ready to keep order by force.

Strikes clamp

TODAY the Government will face down more of our strike-crazy unions.

We cannot know if the minimum service levels for trains, ambulances and borders will be enacted in time to stop militants wrecking Christmas.

But the legal clamp will prove a huge test for Keir Starmer’s party.

Labour will doubtless do their utmost to delay it. But voters will then see the supposed “Government in waiting” siding against them and with the Marxists.

This law tweak does not ban strikes. It merely prevents them shutting down essential services entirely. Many other major economies already have them.

They are a sensible balance in 2023, even if the unions ache to return to 1973.

Hack our taxes

JEREMY Hunt must urgently start hacking away at the highest taxes in 70 years.

A bigger than expected Treasury tax take should give him leeway this month.

Taxes are strangling growth and causing hardship. And what the Chancellor considers prudence is beginning to look like excessive caution.

At least there is one extra burden we will NOT face. Mr Hunt will not hike fuel duty, frozen now for 13 years thanks to The Sun’s celebrated campaign.

Good call, Chancellor.
