DUBLIN — Northern Ireland’s environment minister announced Monday he has banned British government TV ads on climate change and denounced their energy-saving message as “insidious propaganda.”
Sammy Wilson has repeatedly raised eyebrows since winning the environment post in Northern Ireland’s power-sharing government last year.
