So the money grabber, in receipt of a large income from Green firms, Tim Yeo leading as he does the Energy committee in the Commons (so useful for channelling funds to your projects!) has some bright ideas about 'sceptics'.
He thinks asking loaded questions is a proper inquiry. He thinks being a politically motivated activist, involved with anti-capitalist agendas, is no reason why they shouldn't also be a Chapter editor for the IPCC report. You know, the thing governments hang on, the thing that claims to be the best advice on 'Climate Change'.
Turns out, most of it is written by people to whom science itself is a stranger and who have a desired objective for the document that influences governments and it has nothing to do with weather, climate or the welfare of mankind. If I wrote a report that I had discovered life on Mars it would be no less incredible nor any less true than these infantile imbeciles come up with. All I would have to do is adopt the same tactics as the anti-capitalists (sorry, environmentalists).
I do not have to prove it scientifically. There should be no debate about my assertions. The science is settled. Everyone agrees with me and anyone who doesn't is a denier. When the nut-jobs come out of the woodwork to agree with me, I will claim they are eminent scientists and part of the consensus. Pointing out that being only a political activist, with a clear and biased agenda doesn't affect their ability to write a report about their chosen subject.
The people you see chanting outside power plants that keep them safe in their daily lives (too complex for them to grasp) fall into three categories. The political agitators mentioned above, idealistic schoolchildren (most at university) and people- mainly women -from leafy suburbia. If they appeared on mastermind their specialist topic would be social policy, or claiming benefits or where to get the best anti antimacassars. Climate science is not something they have ever really bothered with, just that it seems we shouldn't be destroying our planet, without knowing that well, actually, we aren't.
Please, please, please, deselect Yeo and tell him to never interfere with policy for personal gain again.

Gove And Clegg
Teachers are incensed that the scheme to dumb down exams, resulting in ever better grades for the children they 'taught', is being challenged. The first upset has been the 'harsh' marking of exam papers, though it is highly likely that it was just the result of marking, as opposed to teacher oriented marking.
There appears to be some truth though that the edict arrived recently and didn't allow the teachers to get their story straight and their grade predictions accurate. In other words trivial stuff. But the teachers are incensed and on the streets protesting.
Except they aren't are they? Sure a rally organised by the NUT is loudly shouting down the Gove changes that threaten their stranglehold on the education system. A rally of North Korean standards, based not on anything real, but the wild imaginings of the party leaders.
The NUT are against private schools, Grammers or anything that looks like them because they claim, these systems are elitist. Certainly they achieve high standards. But the reason education in this country is so poor is not because some pupils are encouraged to do well, but that the people who want everyone reduced to a kind of lowest common denominator standard, currently run the comprehensive system.
The NUT and all Left organisations like them, want schooling to be of a very low level to turn out factory proles who will do the state's bidding unquestioningly. It is the aim of all communists.
Education should provide opportunity and children should be encouraged to take advantage of it. Not everyone will be a genius, but their potential should only be hamstrung by their own ability and level of desire, not by Christine Blower.
Clegg seems to have caught a Labour disease in that he opposes everything the Conservatives propose. It seems to have escaped his notice that he is part of a coalition, or maybe the nature of such politics is beyond him. Whatever, he is currently less popular than the EU, which is some achievement.
He doesn't want a third runway at Heathrow. He hasn't any proposals, just objections. Britain needs increased air travel capacity somewhere in the South without a doubt, but he isn't addressing that, just opposing something. He would have gained some respect if he had pointed out that the fairly aggressive attack on Cameron over a new runway came from Tim Yeo, simply because one of the many companies he makes money from has just signed a deal in China,
Hence his dismay at the paucity of flights between London and Chinese cities. Had Clegg attacked Yeo he would have been on solid ground; Yeo is a corrupt embarrassment to the Conservative party, a shameless advantage seeker at taxpayers expense. He wouldn't set off any alarms on a scanner looking for morals.
But Clegg, being a true Lib Dem is drifting around in a cloud of confusion and spouting contrary things from time to time. Both he and Yeo should be put out of our misery.
