If I understand this correctly, this is very significant. Thank you for giving me a dawning hope and a cautious grin.
They’re going to need a hell of a lot more than 3 years to rebuild their models.
How are they going to do this, they threw out all the data?
Ok, but what models will they use? What guarantee is there that their data isn’t tainted?
Will they make their data and model code available to the public so anyone can take the same data and recreate what they do?
And even if their model shows warming, what proof can they give that it has any relevance to how the real Earth behaves?
I guess I missed the part where they cancelled all funding until the review was finished....

If they're on the verge of it being proven that their god is a lie, expect open warfare.
The science was merely window-dressing to provide cover for a statist politicial agenda. The frustrating thing for Statists, is that the meaningless window-dressing is now tripping up all their elaborate plans.
I remember reading a story where they reviewed the British Naval records for temperature readings dating back to the 18th century. Now, the British Navy gave its sailors a daily ration of rum until 1970, so I suspect that quite a few these readings where taken through bleary eyes. I hesitate to overturn the western economic system based on these data.
In other words, they’ve lost their credibility and it will take the “scientists” in other countries 3 years to invent new data to support the original AGW claims. At that time, they will point to the new faked data and announce to the world that they were right even when the original data was false. But this time, they will protect their emails better.
In the meantime, Britain will stand by the original findings until “new” data can be obtained and analyzed.
These people have a level of faith that can only be called zealotry.

It seems to me that this is good news.
If it takes three years or more to recreate the data and clean up the computer models, then that should delay any politicians hare brained ideas to share the wealth with cap and trade or any other carbon trading system.
If the current temperature patterns prevail, we could have three more years of cool weather and that would make it even more difficult for the “global warming cultists” to push their Marxist ideas.
If they really want some integrity, they’ll ask Bjorn Lomborg to help them analyze and crunch the data. That would be a fitting apology for having ridiculed and ostrasized him after he did his own study of environmental data and dared to tell the truth that the planet is getting cleaner thanks to modern industry driven by private enterprise.
Meanwhile hordes of warmists have plans to build huge bonfires in undisclosed locales and try aiming their magnifying glasses at the sun to reflect them on weather stations. They’re getting desperate.
The Rats will just claim that because the POSSIBILITIES as a result of globull warming are so dire, that they had better start taxing us into poverty anyway...just in case.
But then again, all GCMs predict the "greenhouse hot spot", which no one can find — That sort of makes all the computer models WRONG. In a sane world, that would be the end of it.
And then their is the lefts favorite trick, change the language, words and names. We now know AGW goes from global warming, then changes to 'climate change', and now to it's ultimate resting place FRAUD.
BTTT.
Truly, politicians have no love for truth or science, merely power. When scientific quackery becomes a venue for them to seize more power, then that quackery will be treated as scientific writ.
We can’t let the MSM win this.

This is the “foot in the door” for opponents to scrutinize the data and methodology of this hoax.
