 While stirring his Starbucks coffee with a plastic stir stick, he scrolls through his Twitter feed. He likes a few Tweets that insult climate change deniers and retweets a Tweet with a link to an article outlining how climate change will significantly raise sea levels by 2050. I hate climate change deniers, he thinks to himself as he tosses his plastic stir stick into the trash and places a plastic lid on his coffee. He then walks to his SUV, running to keep the AC on (it’s a sweltering and humid late September day for Toronto), parked in front. Classic digital engagement of ‘Do as I say, not as I do.’ ....

Face masks are vile, dehumanising devices. Nothing better exemplifies a continued divergence from “normality”.

Credit: pa/dominic lipinski SIR – I fear that my cousin, Professor Stephen Powis, national medical director of NHS England (Letters, February 19), is being disingenuous when he implies that NHS cancer treatment has been satisfactory during the pandemic. The statistics he cites do not reflect the misery that thousands of patients have suffered as a result of their treatments being postponed. I should know. My own treatment for prostate cancer was delayed by six months and wasn’t completed until nine months after diagnosis. The specialist hospital that provided my care was largely mothballed.

I’m assured that my prognosis will not be affected by the delay – but many people’s will be. ....
