Climate change deniers are headless chickens, Prince Charles has claimed.

In an inflammatory speech, the heir to the throne spoke out against “the barrage of sheer intimidation” from what he described as powerful interest groups.

Addressing young environmental entrepreneurs at Buckingham Palace, he said skeptics were turning accepted scientific wisdom on its head. […]

Charles has long led the public charge against global warming—despite repeated warnings about his “meddling” in contentious global issues. His “headless chickens” jibe ranks among his strongest comments yet.

The “Headless Chicken” insult comes from the phenomenon in which a decapitated chicken will often run aimlessly until it collapses. The phrase insinuates that someone is panicking over a non existent threat, such as global warming or climate change.

I don’t think Diana liked doing it with him, Camilla seems to. Poor guy lives in a fishbowl, he can’t get laid without the Grauniad and Mirror splashing it all about.

These morons have morphed global warming into climate change. They are too stupid to know that no one denies climate change—the natural changes in climate over the long term. It’s global warming that simply needs to be proven and not emotionally established as fact.

He probably couldn’t “keep up” with Diana and went for the older, slower, more easily pleased model.

Prince Charles is his own grandfather. Inbreeding does matter.

Well just a minute, he’s talking about the lower class people not those like himself who are way, way, way above the unwashed.

Right.

Calling someone a headless chicken is not using sheer intimidation ?

And the Prince is not representing a powerful interest group ?

Clown Prince makes fool of himself. Film at 11.
