It's been said on PH before but...

2003 hot summer: blame global warming
2004 cool summer: blame global warming
2003 mild winter: blame global warming
2004 (predictied) cold winter: blame global warming

Basically, if anything happens anywhere on earth, even if a small child trips over a toy monkey in his bedroom, it's all our fault for driving cars.

Is this like the severe drought, famine and pestilence we were supposed to have this year before summer 2004 was deleted and replaced with the perfect storm?

OH TO BE A WEATHERMAN

These heat waves have nothing to do with research suggesting that the earth has been heating up and cooling down all by itself over the past millenia?

No ofcourse they don't, because then these fascist lentillists wouldn't have a leg to stand on now would they? And we can't have the environmentalist sh*tcocks being undermined can we now? No siree, we couldn't possibly have that.

BBC said:

It is thought that the unusually hot summer caused tens of thousands of excess deaths

And if the King Cnuts in charge succeed in controlling the weather through taxation they'll get tens of thousands of deaths each winter instead 20,000 more in the UK alone in a severe winter compared to a mild one. It'd be funny but they're serious and people swallow it

I can see some benefits to this legal approach.

With luck they will have it all worked out by the time I retire (yeh, right) and I could sue someone or something - the Sun maybe? - in order obtain some readies to replace my by then non-existent pension fund.

I'm glad someone is doing something about this really. I mean look what happened that last time we had such a violent swing in weather patterns - the big freeze and famine in the 70's.

Complete disaster. No legal basis for claims. Huge opportunities missed.

Now that the Chancer of the Exchequer seems to have decided not to add the extra fuel duty (for now - wow, like winning the lottery eh? Might swing my election vote ...) I expect this will be great news for him to. An opportunity to withdraw the winter heating bonus from pensioners I predict. Warm enough - they won't need it.
