'Sebastian Nokes, a businessman and climate change sceptic, wrote to a national newspaper to complain.
He said all he had done was request information on the CRU’s disclosure rules and he was questioned on his political and scientific beliefs.'

"Detective Superintendent Julian Gregory, who is leading the investigation, said his unit is looking into anyone who could give clues to who stole the emails and working with experts in "extremism". "

Woah, there. Who is being extremist? Someone who doesn't worry about climate change or someone who swears that climate change is happening and forces taxes on us?

And the now the true extent of how dangerous (for the normal public) or terrorism laws are. We are dangerously close to being a cross between a Communist or fascist state IMO.

Sinister, but not exactly a surprise...welcome to the the Socialist Republic of the United Kingdom.

Imagine those anti-terrorism laws combined with Ecocide

Article said:

Supporters of a new ecocide law also believe it could be used to prosecute "climate deniers" who distort science and facts to discourage voters and politicians from taking action to tackle global warming and climate change.

Some time ago (at least a year IIRC) someone posted a picture of a Tory propaganda poster from what seemed to be the 1950s, in which it was shown, in cartoon style of the era, a chap standing outside his house with the faces of socialist bureacrats/stazi/agents glaring down at him, Orwellian style. It was to illustrate the danger of a Labour regime. I'd love to find it again. It is so pertinent it's incredible.

Edited to add: Found it (although I would suggest that any regime of the future will be one of mind control.

Nothing to worry about then as the hacker isn't going to have asked questions first is he.
No doubt the hi-tech crime unit will take 10 years to figure that out and wont actually find the culprit....

In my head :P


Which is about as reliable and trustworthy as any IPCC report




On serious note, it hasn't been determined yet. But that is my gut feeling based on what I've read about the events surrrounding this whole scandal.

I'd be really suprised if that was the case.

You must remember that the IT department is separate from the CRU. There may well have been a realist in the IT Department.

Really? I and most of the people I've discussed "Climategate" with believe a leak is more likely than a hack? Why do you think it more likely to be hacked? I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'd genuinely like to hear your thoughts on it.
