For a truly mind-blowing analysis of how the new carbon dioxide-trading kleptocracy operates – and how it destroyed Redcar steel works with the full connivance of our own government – read this piece on EU Referendum (a distillation of Christopher Booker’s column in the Sunday Telegraph). Chances of the full sorry tale being reported by the legions of intrepid BBC staff in Copenhagen? Absolute zero. The Redcar closure story is … Continue reading
On Monday December 7, BBC1’s News at Ten adopted an interesting use of scale to illustrate claims about greenhouse gas emissions made by Lord Stern’s Grantham Research Institute: As you can see the entire 2009 column fits easily into the gap between the GRI’s projected and hoped for target for 2020, giving a misleading, exaggerated impression. (The screengrab comes from this week’s Newswatch.) Update 19.35. In the comments Asuka notes … Continue reading
Every time that the Conservatives are mentioned in regards to the European Parliament, for example, BBC reporters dust off the Labour briefing sheet about their political allies despite those slurs having been extensively debunked elsewhere. So you’d think that, for the sake of balance, when a party allied to Labour from EU aspirant Turkey is banned for consorting with terrorists, that might mention a small paragraph towards the end of … Continue reading
While nutter “flat-earth” Brown promises to blow £1.5bn of our money towards “climate change” (see below), and the BBC continues to push greenie protests as if they were important, the real consequences of all this lunacy are coming home to roost. With cheese-paring savagery and utter cynicism, Chancellor Alastair Darling is preparing to rob £350m from pensioners – already struggling because they can’t afford bills pushed up by “green” energy … Continue reading
Just listened to the coverage on Radio 4’s PM and 6pm news programmes about Brown’s £1.5b climate change splurge. Plenty of criticism was broadcast, but only from those who think that even more of our money should be given away to enrich third world kleptocrats and keep an endless supply of useless bureaucrats in employment. The pathetic Tory “opposition” obviously can’t be relied upon to voice the concerns of millions … Continue reading
Leftie bigot Matt Frei’s contempt for Middle America is on full display in his latest shamelessly biased diary article in which he argues that the way to get those dumb rednecks to accept without question the new cult of MMGW is to target them through their current religion. The Telegraph’s Damian Thompson has already blogged a response which is well worth reading, although he put his views more succinctly on … Continue reading

Richard Black, reporting self-indulgently and with puffed-up arrogance about his earth-saving role at Copenhagen, notes: Most of the real deals are done behind closed doors guarded by security guys with stern faces and impressive pectorals.That’s where the important countries and blocs reveal more of their real demands, where trades are bartered between national delegations. Reporting it is a nightmare. So that’s how the new world government that Richard wants to … Continue reading
Coming up on Monday, the next film to be screened as part of BBC 4’s Storyville documentary slot is “Age of Stupid“, climate catastrophe porn for the green cultists. Even the Observer’s Philip French called the film “a hectoring lecture”, which makes it perfectly in keeping with the rest of the BBC’s Copenhagen-related coverage. And don’t forget, still to come on Storyville – “By the People”, described by the Washington … Continue reading
Bit of festive poetry for you: “I bought a magic goose from a jolly farmer.This goose laid Barack Obama.” (From Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy’s Twelve Days of Christmas, commissioned by the Radio Times. Critique from Oliver Mare here.) Like the first seven windows on your advent calendar, this thread is open. (Bumped). Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
