Flying on a budget airline is as bad as stabbing somebody on the streets? How did that come up?

Green Party MEP Caroline Lucas was asked whether flying on a budget airline was anything like stabbing somebody in the street. Her response was "Yes - because they are dying from climate change." The response of a fucking idiot of course, but who asked that question? Who made that initial association? Lucas also claimed that our air quality made us "the dirty old man of Europe" am I wrong to quite like that title? The always awesomely direct and leading Daily Mail have the story as well as a response from the equally nonsensical UK Independence Party. What a great day for politics.

Climate Change- giving retards an excuse since Superman fixed that hole in the O-Zone.

Glowbal Warming?

Working out well this year isn't it?

SNOW DAY WOOOOO!

Heathrow's 3rd runway

So Heathrow's 3rd runway is going ahead. I'm upset. Not for the reason our Green friend above would have you believe. I actually think Gordon Brown managed to push this bullshit through based on the fact that he knows "Green policy" doesn't mean shit in the eyes of the average voter. If the prevalent voice against the runway was that of the people whose homes will be destroyed and those who live nearby who will now live in sonic hell then I don't think he could have made this call so easily, despite pressure from "Business leaders". Of course this is a "Government of business" which has worked out well so far. The idea that you can run around calling everything "Green" to the extent that you're making 100w light bulbs illegal and in the same breath extend an airport over one of the most densely populated areas in the UK is incredible. This "Green gesturing" needs to stop because nobody believes it.

2000 people will be forced to leave their homes and 600 extra flights will pass over London every day. Add that to the fact that we'll now have a roadblock M4 and M25 and I'm struggling to see exactly who Gordon Brown has consulted. He's already told Parliament that he won't be seeking parliamentary approval although the Lib Dems and Tories are expected to force a vote. Word on the grapevine is that within the Labour offices, the 3rd Runway is in the early stages of being branded "Green Heathrow". Genius.

London snow

So it snowed in London last night. The first time it's snowed in London in October since 1934. I blogged about global warming's most damaging PR year to date in the summer, now I really feel like we're being conned. I know a lot of the wrong people at ugly newspapers and radio stations will be saying what I'm saying and I can't control that, but we need to look at what we're actually being told here; summers/ winters are getting warmer? Sea levels will rise? These things are not actually true. The very opposite is proven to be true. I'm reliably informed that it's actually been winter temperatures in the East Coast of the United States for a few weeks now. Yet "Green" legislation continues to dominate all major European manifestos. Why? We're about to enter a cold winter (both literally and figuratively), we're supposed to believe that the people who led us into it (skipping and laughing) will lead us out, just because "That's what happens in a recession. You get out of it" and fuel prices are set to rise yet again. During this time we're told that we should insulate our own homes, we should cut back on heating bills, why? Because the shit's running out! Of course it is! The more the natural resources drain, the harder it is for us to keep our homes warm, that's basic, but don't dress it up as something it's not to support your eventual movement into nuclear energy.

I know there are seriously respected people who have come to accept the theory of global warming, people who have been skeptics for decades now endorse "Green legislation" but while there's no real effort to explain what we see with our own two eyes, there's no hope for Global Warming as a concept in Britain. It will be a form of people control until the people don't want it any more (we have a government that does a lot with the left hand while the right hand does tricks, generally it can't maintain it and it all comes crashing down ala this economy), the British people shouldn't be taken lightly, the more this government has encroached on our civil liberties and taken the right to enforce morals on us and our children, the less likely they are to win the next election (not that I really think they have a chance any way). But it's amazing what they got away with in a good economy, who was complaining? House prices were going up and everybody was going on holiday, personal debt was being repaid slowly but surely. Now, approaching the cold winter, people have to take stock, what use is green reform when you can't pay off your credit card bill? Labour said at the last election "Labour is working, let's not go back to 3 million unemployed" good idea. Now will somebody with some credibility come out and say something constructive about the environment? I see Boris pimping it for his own end, I see Labour pimping it to their own end, I see Dave pimping it to his own end, but all it is right now is a whore with a lot of vaginas, fucking us at every opportunity and charging us for the pleasure. Can this monster continue to exist in a purely party-political atmosphere?

Really went off on a tangent there. I did not expect to use the word "Vaginas" in this post.

The great global warming swindle...

I'm actually being totally serious here. Being the logical human being that I am; I've always been a bit conflicted by Global Warming as a concept. I, like a lot of people require further proof before we go ultra-Al Gore on this shit. That being said, I recycle and have half an eye on carbon emissions and such because either way you can't argue that the earth is pretty disgusting at this point. Especially in the Cities. But it has to be said that while the extreme weather over the past few summers was used as proof of global warming, this summer would surely act as proof that what we experienced was unconnected to the O-Zone? No? This summer has been crappy. Not that I mind particularly, I've lived in Britain my whole life; this is pretty much how it's always been. Also it means I'm not so salty shouting into a mic every afternoon, I'm not missing much am I? The Olympics kept me pretty entertained too.

New mixtape next month fools!
