Climate… It has warmed since the end of the Little Ice Age, thank goodness. This warming will have been caused in part naturally and in part by man. How much has it warmed and what is man’s contribution isn’t known with any degree of accuracy. Burning hydrocarbons generates CO2 and this causes warming. That’s what the physics shows. All agree that doubling CO2 causes a temperature increase of ~1C. But here is the disagreement… some climate scientists hypothesise that there is an additional climate sensitivity factor caused by the extra CO2. This sensitivity factor isn’t agreed upon and hasn’t been observed. Is warming harmful? Some will argue that it is, others argue that civilisation and life thrives in the warmth. Certainly, the planet is unusually cold today, compared to the average across the Phanerozoic. The Nobel Prize winning climate economist, William Nordhaus, forecasts that the world will be some 430% more wealthy by 2100 despite climate change impacts - civilisation is thriving. So, we have a poor understanding of climate with little data. And this field of study has been dreadfully distorted by money and politics, making it difficult to get to the facts. Consequently, I think it profoundly wrong to upend our industrial civilisation in pursuit of net zero.

Such a barking stupid idea that I suspect it is true.
BREAKING 🚨: Keir Starmer and the government are looking into the idea of requiring anyone who streams Netflix or Disney+ to pay the BBC licence fee. This follows a drop of 2.4M people who stopped paying their TV licence since 2020. What is your message to the BBC?

She is either very badly educated on climate or deliberately spreading untruths.
“Within the next 5 years you run the risk of The Planet becoming so warm that many people will die from heat” “There should be no Politics in that” Former New Zealand PM & Covid Tyrant Jacinda Ardern in Brazil for COP 30 promoting the Climate Change Hoax ‼️

You forgot to have a go at brexit as well. And what about Farage, he’s another target for people like you.
All roads to today’s crisis at the BBC trace back to Boris Johnson.
Davey is obsessed with Reform UK. Great fun!
The resignations of Tim Davie and Deborah Turness must be a chance for the BBC to turn a new leaf, rebuild trust and not give in to those like Nigel Farage who want to destroy it. We must stand up for a strong, independent BBC, to stop Trump’s America becoming Farage's Britain.
You are on the wrong side of the argument. As usual.
So many new media 'influencers' 'journalists', presenters, populists and funders of the political extremes completely despise the BBC, are jealous of the BBC, want to see the end of the BBC for their own benefit. If we want the BBC to survive, we have to be prepared to defend it.

These people are illegal migrants who have broken into our country. A tented camp in a field surrounded by barbed wire would be more appropriate. Then, speedy deportation.
Ben & Jerry’s UK invites people into its “‘No Escape Room’ - exposing the reality of temporary asylum accommodation.” It adds: “Join us by taking action now – email your MP and call for humane asylum accommodation, it takes less than 30 seconds.”
Things are steadily getting worse - every day.

He is as mad as MiniBrain.
I’ve just announced I’ll be leading a National Emergency Briefing on 27 November . At a time when climate is in free fall on the political agenda , it’s vital our leaders realise what is at stake if we do not accelerate a just , green transition for all . @nebriefing 🇬🇧

Brilliant!
Zack, there’s as much chance of you persuading Putin to give up his nukes by asking nicely as there is of… oh I don’t know… growing the size of a woman’s breasts by hypnotising them. 🤡

Another reason to vote Reform.
Nigel Farage wants to turn Britain into a version of Trump's America. The Liberal Democrats won't let him. We will stand up for a decent, tolerant and caring country.

This man is bonkers. A climate zealot.
‘The threat of climate breakdown is much greater than that.’ Environmental campaigner @ChrisGPackham compares the battle to control climate change to the fight against fascism during WWII.

Naive. Men like Putin respond to credible force.

Labour will know because they did just the same. And have been found out.
EXCL: The Green party is offering “simple solutions to complex problems” and making “undeliverable” promises to voters ahead of next election, PM's chief secretary Darren Jones tells me 👇 theguardian.com/politics/202…

Labour lashing out at other lefties now…
You see this. Zack is using the Reform playbook - dripping in arrogance, childish and combative - the politics of easy answers. He’s basically copying Farage play by play.

Even worse than Labour - only one poppy amongst the lot of them.
Great to be out with the @WatfordLibDems team, campaigning for @CRobertson_LD, our candidate in the Tudor ward by-election.
"If you want to live in a country where nobody can afford to heat their house...If you want lots of people to lose their jobs because there's no energy…then carry on believing that Net Zero is intelligent and thoughtful.” ~ Peter Hitchens
Only one poppy.
Thanks to everyone that made the time to talk to the @swanseawestclp team in Manselton today
