*******************************
1639 Ed Miliband has Tweeted some breaking news from inside the conference centre. "Rumour runs round that the talks have broken up. . . its true but only so we can all go to the loo," he wrote. Followed swiftly by: "Back in for more talks soon. Just got caught by BBC and Channel 4. Havent slept since Wed night."
1625 Hang on a minute, we're now hearing that delegations have been asked to stay the night if needed. Perhaps the Danish hosts, who are desperate to see the Copenhagen Accord come to life, have made the request. But it's unlikely that Barack Obama, who was only planning to spend a few hours on the ground, will be ringing around for a hotel.
1616 Good news for those delegates who have had enough of the chicken or hoummous sandwiches which are the staple fare at the Bella Centre. The UN has formally denied asking world leaders to extend their stay in Copenhagen because of a deadlock, which means that Gordon Brown could be making snowmen in the garden of No 10 tomorrow morning.
The scare had originated from the EU Environment Commissioner Stavors Dimas, who told reporters that Ban Ki Moon, the UN chief, had asked people not to leave tonight because he wanted a deal.

In the U.K. Telegraph, a journalist had the following to say about recent events in Danegeld, Hopenchangin:
There was one good moment at Copenhagen, though: some seriously professional truncheon work by Danish Plod on the smellies.
Aahh.. the Brits. We may have invented the internet, but they invented the language..

Copenhagen draft text obtained by the Guardian**************************EXCERPT************************
The three-page text suggests the level of agreement reached by the morning of the final day of the UN climate change summit is extremely weak. It says countries 'ought' to limit global warming to 2C, but does not bind them to do so. Negotiations continue
*****************************************
One country is going to limit Global Warming????

Looks like the conference was a failure for all practical intentions. Great news. And yet again we see Obama has no charm, only empty words.
