More leftist bullshit and disinformation. A lot of early Climate Change scientist/pioneers have now changed their opinions because they saw the shoddy to corrupt research the Global Warming crew cooked up.

An eloquent spokesman for Brexit:

The EU was never meant to be a democracy, says Frederick Forsyth

What kind of a country, what kind of a governmental system? People’s democracy or officialdom’s empire? Our right to hold power to account or just two duties: to pay and obey? For me it is simple and takes just five words. I want my country back.

Inhofe may be a climate change skeptic but I have never heard him referred to by the MSM as one.

have cast doubt over man-made climate change, which is backed by most of the world’s credible experts.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

As usual, since "most of the world’s credible experts" are so well known, the never need to be named. All twelve of them, not yet in jail.

On the other hand...

"There are several claims that large numbers of scientists do not agree with the theory of climate change, the best known of which is a petition organised by the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (the OISM petition). This petition now appears to be signed by over 32,000 people with a BSc or higher qualification.

"The signatories agree with these statements:
•The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind.

"There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate..."

Over 31,000 ACTUAL SCIENTISTS

No hairdressers, tattoo artists or graphic designers in the bunch...

As much as the political issue of climate change is visible in the USA, you ain’t seen nothing yet until you visit London and see reference to it at every single turn. Vinyl letters on the sides of delivery vehicles claiming carbon neutrality, goods in stores talking about recycled materials, signs and posters straight out of 1984 touting climate awareness, and menus in restaraunts claiming that your meal is offset by carbon credits and I can go on and on. I don’t think there’s one good we bought from a cup of coffee to a clothing that didn’t have some reference to Eco/carbon/renewable/fair trade/cruelty-free or make some reference to partial profits directed to helping a former British colony in Africa. It was just absurd but they’re absolutely prouder than hell about it.

It’s not just something they do in tourist areas, because we were way out away from the city center and the enviro babble was ever present just about anywhere you looked. There were honestly four signs inside of our hotel room claiming that the furnishings were made of Eco-friendly recycled/recyclable material, the toilet uses 21.2% less water per flush than before, the coffee and tea was fair trade sourced, the heating system was 39.5% green energy, and their constant reminders about the environment never stopped even inside the elevator, down into the lobby, through the breakfast bar, and out to the taxi stand. The drinking fountains in museums are in a partnership with helping Africans get fresh drinking water in their villages. Absolutely pathological.

At first we found it comical and started a little game to find the most references to green energy, eco this-and-that, and carbon neutrality everywhere we went. But in not too long all the in your face Eco-pestering got to the point where I just wanted to scream STFU already and that you’re all actually polluting the planet (or at least London) with materials announcing how carbon neutral you all are. They actually try to make you feel bad for drinking from a paper cup with a plastic lid.

Until you’ve seen it for yourself you don’t really understand that they’re suffering from social mass hysteria. I give it about another five or ten years and the hoi polloi in London will be into some new fad that they’re so hardcore Eco-vegan that they’ll only eat vegetables that have died a natural death and they’ll go about their lives holding their breath as long as they can so that other people far away in third world nations can have a chance to breathe.

If you don’t believe me, go do Google Maps street view of London and see the signs and banners on taxis and buses and bridges and public works.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

#5 — You asked is any U.S. politician opposed to climate change. The answer is yes. James Inhofe authored the excellent book, “The The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future”.

Media meme-building on behalf of the Tories and Labour (and the EU) continues. Prediction: right after the Brexit vote (which is admittedly a little behind), the EU countries will finally push through laws banning Euroskepticism. It's already been tried, hell, it may even have been enacted in one of the member countries. Thanks Olog-hai.

The EU was set up to be a mega Socialist state. It looks like many people in the UK recognize that and are trying to change course. The EU would collapse without the UK, France and Germany.

Any guarantee of that?

More like it’ll pass into the EU military’s hands when it forms. The continental backlash is not covered too much by the media, but it’s going on.

It’d collapse without the latter two, certainly. Problem is, those two are wholly dedicated to it.

People on the whole don’t realize that the UN’s charter is a clone of the 1936 USSR constitution, and that the 1957 Treaty of Rome, which established the second iteration of the EU (called the European Economic Community) declares in its preamble “accordance with the principles of the Charter of the United Nations”, thereby cementing socialism that far back in its existence.

There is no way a bunch of socialist welfare sucking lemmings are going to vote to leave the EU. Any group of people committing suicide by Muslim are not in the frame of mind to go it alone.
