In an effort to save the planet before its expiry date of July 2017, HRH The Prince of Wales, holding an Ecuadoran stream tree frog, poses with schoolgirls in Ecuadoran-stream-tree-frog masks

Handing out his awards for "sustainability" at Buckingham Palace the other day, the Prince of Wales made a few remarks about "climate change" and attacked "powerful groups of deniers" as a "headless-chicken brigade" ignoring the scientific evidence. It's pretty funny to be called a "headless chicken" by a guy who runs around saying the sky is falling. In 2009 His Royal Highness gave a speech saying we had only 96 months left to save the planet. Ninety-six months? That would be July 2017 — which is only three and a half years off. On the other hand, it's almost twice as far away as January 2016, which is the official final storewide-clearance date for Al Gore's 2006 prediction of the end of the world.

If it's consensus, it's not science. Consensus is politics. And if it's science, it's not consensus.

Good grief, that is pathetically comical.

Priceless.
Another great Steyn quote from the article ...
Indeed, I find it far scarier than any “climate change” that leaders of advanced western nations now go around sounding like the kind of apocalyptic loons who used to wander the streets wearing sandwich boards and passing out homemade leaflets.
Steyn ping.

If we had lost the Revolutionary war, this loon would be our King some day. Scary thought.
I always go to inbred idiots for scientific knowledge.
Steyn on top of his game.

His Mum the Queen either has plans to be the world’s longest lived sovereign, or maybe.....her barmy son might head off to one of his third world paradises, and mysteriously disappear.
If he does ascend to the throne, he’ll be Charles the Bewitched II.
They are reminiscent of the Prohibition Movement in the United States during the earlier part of the 20th Century. When laws began to effect every single American, the emotive, eccentric, chicken-little, alcoholophobe Prohibitionists were relegated to the dust bin of History.
Likewise , Prince Charles and all of his Chicken Littles will also go the way of the Doh-doh bird.Either that or we will be driven back to the age of horse and buggy, hardly anything that any sane, practical individual would tolerate. Read the annals of Lord Monkton for the truth about Global Warmers:

Steyn at his best...
It's one thing for the Prince of Wales to be running around like a loon - he was born to his position. Royalty's inbred enough some can be expected to wander about dressed in 'end is near' sandwich boards. BUT in the United States we're electing these idiots... You're right - that's what's really scary.
Mark Steyn ping.
Freepmail me, if you want on or off the Mark Steyn ping list.
Thanks for the ping Slings and Arrows.
Lord Christopher Monckton had a great letter to the Princeling recently....
