Devine comedy

I watched the interview with disgraced MP Jim Devine with incredulity. Not only was he unable to realise that what he did was just plain wrong, but he couldn't get his facts straight.

He was floundering to the Nth degree.

When asked to justify his annual bill for cleaning, (£3500 of our money. Does he not know how to use a vacuum cleaner?) he has the audacity to claim that he paid it all upfront. He then contradicts himself several times, with in one sentence £180 per month, and in the next £150 per month. Now even at £180 per month that does not add up to £3500 for a year.

Then he can't even get it right over what period he was claiming for. And this is one of elected MP's.

Next he is quizzed over his expense on stationary. He'd been caught flipping his stationary allowance into office expenses. His excuse was "a whip told me I could do it". Should he not have contacted the expenses committee if he had doubts.

Just go and watch it for yourself.

What a labour Tosser. If he represents you, then I'm sorry. Then again you voted him in you sorry tossers.

The Pigeon gets it.

Just a friday funny.

So now they come for the E smokers.

Just received this in my inbox. It's not about health is it? It's all about maximising revenue.

The E-NI/E.Cig Market is under direct threat from government legislation that would make the Selling of nicotine containing products illegal.

HOW WILL THIS LEGISLATION, IF PASSED AFFECT YOU! 

1. As from the 21st June 2010 all selling of un-licensed nicotine products (E.liquids, Pre Filled Cartridges Containing Nicotine) will be banned. Companies such as The Electronic Cigarette Company and Totally Wicked would be shut down by Trading Standards.

Captivity

Day 183 of my captivity

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the occasional piece of furniture.

Tomorrow I may eat another house plant.

Today my attempt to kill my captors by weaving around their feet while they were walking, almost succeeded; must try this at the top of the stairs next time. In an attempt to disgust and repulse them, I again induced myself to vomit on their favourite chair. (Note-to-self: I think I'll try urinating under their bed, too. Wonder how long it'll take them to find it?)

Decapitated a mouse and brought them the headless body, to make them aware of what I am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a good little cat I was. Not working according to plan.

There was some sort of gathering of their accomplices. I was placed in solitary confinement throughout the event. However, I could hear the noise and smell the food.
More importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to MY power of "allergeez." Must learn what this is and how to use it to my advantage.

I am convinced the other captives are flunkies and may be snitches. The dogs are routinely released and seem more than happy to return. They must obviously be half-wits.

The bird, on the other hand, appears to have become an informant, and speaks with them regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due to his current placement in the metal room, his safety is preserved. But I can wait; it's only a matter of time...

Climategate. Another exaggeration?

This was reported in the Dutch newspaper, Vrij Nederland. The paper picks up on some distorting of facts in Chapter 12 of the WG11 report.

The Netherlands is an example of a country highly susceptible to both sea-level rise and river flooding because 55% of its territory is below sea level where 60% of its population lives and 65% of its Gross National Product (GNP) is produced.

In fact, as the newspaper tells us, these figures are far too high.

 The Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) states that only one fifth of the Netherlands is below sea level and that only 19 percent rather than 65 percent of the GDP generated is generated in that area.

It would seem that the IPCC is deliberately exaggerating in their literature in order to have a maximum propaganda effect.

As EU Referendum considers. "Is this deliberate fraud?"

Talk about back stabbing.

 

When I saw this picture I was amazed.

 

Apparently this young woman was stabbed by a mugger. What is so astonishing is that she didn't realise that she had a six inch knife still stuck in her back.

I must admit I'm as credulous of the truth of the original article in a Russian tabloid, as The Daily Mail is. How could you not feel it? (Ouch)

Climategate. The BBC puts the boot in.

Newsnight covers it last night.

Newsnight

Oh and Melanie Phillips wades in as well

How embarrassing.(Again).

 

There's this.

The UN IPCC is facing more humiliation today after revelations that a "peer reviewed' study relied on in its Working Group 1 report contained "worthless" and fake data.

It's the first time climate skeptics have landed a direct blow on the prestigious WG-1 report, which outlines the 'scientific' case for climate change and which was used as the basis for the Summary for Policymakers given to world leaders ahead of Copenhagen. Ironically the fatal stab has come from the warmist-leaning Guardian.

In section 3.2 of WG-1, the UN IPCC discounts the influence of Urban Heat Island Effect based on a study by the University of East Anglia's Phil Jones, who gave the first official confirmation in the world that the Climategate emails were genuine.

The problem for the IPCC is the story in today's Guardian newspaper, which reveals the 1990 Jones study was based on made-up data that Jones knew was unreliable.

And this

The National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) has been urged by the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition (NZCSC) to abandon all of its in-house adjustments to temperature records. This follows an admission by NIWA that it no longer holds the records that would support its in-house manipulation of official temperature readings.

In December, NZCSC issued a formal request for the schedule of adjustments under the Official Information Act 1982, specifically seeking copies of “the original worksheets and/or computer records used for the calculations”. On 29 January, NIWA responded that they no longer held any internal records, and merely referred to the scientific literature.

“The only inference that can be drawn from this is that NIWA has casually altered its temperature series from time to time, without ever taking the trouble to maintain a continuous record. The result is that the official temperature record has been adjusted on unknown dates for unknown reasons, so that its probative value is little above that of guesswork. In such a case, the only appropriate action would be reversion to the raw data record, perhaps accompanied by a statement of any known issues,” said Terry Dunleavy, secretary of NZCSC.

It really is a house of cards slowly collapsing

Well I never heard of such a thing.

Oh look. It would seem that someone at the BBC has their finger in the pie of climate change.

The man responsible for looking after the fat pensions of the boys and girls at the BBC is a climate change fanatic, and he is part of an international group of investment managers who bust a gut to invest in 'climate change' schemes. He's called Peter Dunscombe, and he runs the £8.2bn corporation pension fund, advising trustees on a day-to-day basis about their investments. Mr Dunscombe, who addresses conferences about 'ethical investments', is also chairman of the Institutional Investment Group on Climate Change(IIGCC), which has 47 members and manages four trillion euros' worth of investments; yes, four trillion. Their goal is to find as many 'climate change' investment opportunities as possible:

I would really laugh my head of if the Beeb got burnt by this man's fanatism with climate change.

Then again I suspect the government would just allow the BBC to raise their license fee to cover it.
