Climate change scandal deepens as BBC expert claims he was sent 'cover-up' emails

Climate change scandal deepens as BBC expert claims he was sent 'cover-up' emails a month before they went public

The controversy surrounding the global warming scandal today deepened after a BBC correspondent admitted he was sent the leaked emails more than a month before they were made public.

Paul Hudson, weather presenter and climate change expert, claims the documents allegedly sent between some of the world's leading scientists are of a direct result of an article he wrote.

In his BBC blog two days ago, Hudson said: 'I was forwarded the chain of emails on the 12th October, which are comments from some of the world's leading climate scientists written as a direct result of my article "Whatever Happened To Global Warming".' That essay, written last month, argued that for the last 11 years there had not been an increase in global temperatures.

It also presented the arguments of sceptics who believe natural cycles control temperature and the counter-arguments of those who think it's man's actions which are warming the planet.

The leaked files - which show 4,000 documents which have allegedly been sent by scientists over the past 13 years - were apparently taken from servers at the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit, which is a world-renowned centre focused on studying climate change.

For some reason....when I read this a couple of days ago...it didn’t pass ‘the smell test’. Why in the HELL did he ‘hang on to them’? I’m thinking he’s bluffing. After all....this IS the BBC, here.

Before the EU made carbon trading a legal requirement, there was more than enough evidence that AGW was an outstanding hoax, but legislators cannot turn down a chance to extend their control over the people, even in Socialist Europe (for the short of it, watch #s six, seven, and eight):

The cooling off cycle started in 1998. That's why the worlds Communists/Marxists/Socialists are in such a hurry now to grab all the properties and liberties they can while they still have a chance. Their time is quickly running out. People are starting to notice.
These e-mails have opened a lot of eyes, too. Those who were still sitting on the fence are jumping off in large numbers.

Sooooo....will the democrats try to push their Cap and Tax bill now? That lie was worth billions of vote buying dollars! Will Oboma still try to sell us out to the U.N.?

I think you answered your own question. If he made these public he would be fired from the BBC. Just as many scientists would lose their funding, or per the emails, be smeared and ostracized by colleagues. This is arguably the largest mass fraud ever committed. The emails speak for themselves with regards to 'taking care' of dissenters.

Politicization and perversion of science — the liberals have a lot to answer for. The disinfectant of sunshine needs to be shown ever more on these cockroaches.

Taking his quote literally, how could the emails that cover 13 years be a response to his article of a month ago?

He’s self promoting. More traffic + more name recognition = more money. The same motivation for him to sit on the alleged emails.

I posted the following during the House debate on "Crap-N-Charade". We need more stuff to pile on before Dingy Harry schedules debate and attempts to ram it through. Has anyone heard comments from Mark Kirk in light of the recent dump of the climate documents? Did he get the message. Here is more stuff:

Four inconvenient document sources:

1) A 300+ page "manager's amendment" that was added to the bill at 3:09am the day of the House vote. Not only was this a voluminous add-on, it is a scary document. How will local governments be able to afford the extra staff to enforce the new and very confusing building code laws. The bill also radically modifies international trade rules.

http://energycommerce.house.gov/Press_111/20090521/hr2454_multi_waxman.pdf

2) A suppressed and censored report from our own EPA exposes many problems with the theories and "consensus" of the populist (and now debunked) theory of global warming, and the true (and minimal) affect of human activity on the climate. The suppressed EPA report is linked here:

http://cei.org/news-release/2009/06/25/cei-releases-global-warming-study-censored-epa

3) A report from the Chicago-based Heartland Institute summarized the Non-Governmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC) that attempts to use scientific and rational arguments to identify exactly what is going on in the climate and the true impact of human activity. The recently released NIPCC report is found here:

http://www.sepp.org/publications/NIPCC_final.pdf

4) A deep-in-the-weeds technical website devoted to expose the false data collection and manipulation of research data was used to support al the carbon dioxide and temperature nonsense:

I remember saying to my wife at least 2 weeks ago why is there sudden doubt that anything would come of Kyoto this year and then there was talk of Copenhagen collapsing and then O’bozo decides to go. Let’s hope he has the same results as bringing the Olympics here. It sure sounds like people knew the ship was about to hit the fan...

But my question is whyis he admitting this NOW? Even admitting this would get him fired.

It's all over the web now. He can't be singled out for reporting it as easily.
In his defense. If he had reported this day one, he'd be gone by now. Us 'stupid people that need to be herded' have become aware of it en masse and he can reveal the info. I have no doubt he is not the only one.

The information released is clearly a mere fraction of the data, EMail, and computer programs, etc, that ought to be released by the Climatati. Much much more exists somewhere , or was deleted intentionally.

Hudson is not the only fraudcaster who was in on this.

Very good. Would you mind putting together (or, would some creative freeper, mind) a graphic(s)showing climate change only occurring in the pants of Al Gore, and his ilk? Or, how about Climate change happening only between Al Gore’s A** hole and flushing water?

Thanks.
