“The Met Office-led study warns although the effect will be offset by recent global warming, Britain faces years of unusually cold winters. “
Cling to the hoax no matter what.
Now, with this Global Warming ... not so much wine.
Global warming again.

Global warming is good.
Some people click.g to this hoax with religious fervor.
It’s just global trans-warming.
*cling
Well if we’re frying up down here, as these idiots claim the Brits should be able to get through a little cold winter. Put a jumper* on. Have a spot of tea and do carry on. *’’jumper’’. What the British call a sweater.
BUSH”S FAULT!!! Just thought I say that.
> which triggered Arctic winter whiteouts and led to the River Thames freezing 300 years ago.
If this happens again, it will be proof of global warming!
I think they could be right on this one. Most of the global warming stuff is BS, but brief(ish) cooling periods are certainly a known phenomenon. And, they can come on very quickly.
Damn that ol’ sun. Maybe we ought to get a new one or can they re-boot this one? Aks Obama, maybe he can hopey and changey it back to what it should be.
it seems to me that the bitter clingers to the global warming hoax have never even asked the most basic questions.
1) is it real?
2) if so, are we the cause?
3) if so, is it actually a bad thing?
4) if so, can we even stop it?
5) if so, at what cost?
the bitter clingers assume 1) and 2) to be self-evidently true. but they have never looked at 3). it may well be that a couple of degree increase in average temperatures is enough to boost global food output by x% per year and decrease our dependence on oil/nuclear energy by y% per year. there may be many other such tradeoffs to be considered. i have never - in 25 years - seen anyone discuss/debate question 3). the engineer in me sees that unwillingness to examine this question as proof that the bitter clingers aren’t really interested in science. they have a “solution” and they are simply massaging the data to compel the rest of us to embrace their “solution”.
scientific policy should not be set by lawyers, actors, bureaucrats, and politicians. it should be set by scientists, technologists, engineers, etc. and these people should not have any conflicts of interest w.r.t. getting their research funded based on the solutions they propose.
Achievement unlocked. First Game of Thrones reference!
Past two winters here were brutally cold.
