Some of the comments on that article are really scary, the warmists appear to have no ability to reason and appear bereft of all logic.

Of course all the pictures on 24 hour news channels of flooded streets etc etc plays right in to their hands, and I guess the gullible are easilly influenced by that, they've seen the Al Gore movie after all.

The thing is, this has happened many times in the past and it will happen again and again. One day it'll be London making the flooding headlines, or any other city built around a river on a flood plain. It's nothing new or even unexpected, but warmists seem to want to believe that when the st hits the fan it's always carbon dioxide to blame!

If a warmist was a gambler able to back heads on the flip of a coin at odds of 2.2 (10% value/10% long term profit) he would give up after getting 10 tails in a row.

He savaged the idea of a concensus, mentioned the lack of warming for the past 15 years, opined that environmentalists were 'whining idiots' that the govetnment was pandering to. It went on and on.

Eta: if there's a podcast of the show, he appeared just after 7:45.

I couldn't agree more. Here in North Wales they seem to stick the damned things on every available hill, and out to sea there is a wall of turbines from Liverpool to Llandudno. A constant reminder of the moronic policies that have wrecked our land and seascapes.

Widening participation in a free vote is democracy in action. This is indeed it. Vote away, good people of PH.

Is your last comment based perchance on knowledge of some automated repeat-voring mechanism as per the one that greens used to derail a London Science Museum vote not too long ago? Just checking smile
