    ‘The Times’ (£):-

    “Number of climate change sceptics soars as support for alternative energy wanes”

    [Limited excerpt]:-

    “The proportion of people who do not believe in climate change has more than quadrupled since 2005, according to a government-funded survey.
    “Public support for wind and solar power as an alternative to fossil fuels has fallen sharply over the same period, with gas the only form of electricity production now perceived more favourably.
    “The findings, published today by the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC), come as hundreds of climate scientists and government officials from around the world head to Stockholm to finalise next week’s report on climate change.”

    BBC-NUJ hardly reports on Canada, (beyond disasters) compared with its Pakistan reporting, so we cannot expect BBC-NUJ to report on this, and it doesn’t:-

    Gameshow Nikki interviewing a man who was bereaved by the Birmingham bombing. The chap was complaining, rightly too, about Martin McGuinness being invited to the Peace Centre in Warrington to give a speech.

    ‘Buwobou Mamaginz Increlljunee?’.

    (I think ‘But what about Martin McGuinness’ incredible journey’)

    Campbell being an utter utter moron as per usual.

    Two increlljunees I’d like to see.

    1. My boot from the ground to Neecamell’s arse.

    2. Mamaginz to a prison cell.

    Perhaps we could have a public consultation on who goes
    rather than the usual sacrifice of nameless functionaries

    INBBC: ‘we don’t have to report on Islamic jihadists in FRANCE, and so detract from our Islamisation of Europe agenda, do we?’

    QT has managed to bring the ‘veil issue’ down to just a veils in the NHS issue, bugger the wider issues…
    The plants are there, note the faces which the camera picks up on and the unwarranted applause for Laurie Penny most likely an out and out feminist except when it comes to Islam….
