No doubt now

If there was ever doubt that this rabble ‘‘Government’’ are the biggest idiots that emit foul gases, then there can no longer be any doubt.

Already maxing out the credit cards they now announce sabotage of the oil industry. Expansion of such operations would provide more wealth and employment for the country. Please, more drilling , fracking and mining, with restorative sympathetic clean ups when sites are finished with.

There is something amiss here. These philistines are all for cradle to the grave welfare and ongoing top ups to a bottomless grievance trough. But they want to shut down industry sectors that feed such illegitimate profligacy.

Allegedly greenhouse emissions have increased by 20 per cent or so since 1990, but by what percentage has our population increased in that time? But because there is more C02 gas being emitted the planet has greened up enormously, plantlife breathes C02 and emits O2. Famine and hunger is in decline because crops are consistently more successful and abundant

Climate change was an ‘‘inconvenient’’ renaming of global warming because ‘‘warming’’ was an inconvenient lie. Those of us that don’t unquestionably believe hysteria from media and verbose lefties know why. Ditto for many eminent scientists reading from the same empirical data, but looking at it in a FULL context.

But of course its not politically correct to challenge climate alarmists with such robust data / evidence. There is responsibility to sensibly look after the planet, but reality is that climate change is driven by cyclical forces of nature well beyond human footprint. Evidence suggests a looming mini ice age.

Media needs reminding that this rabble ‘‘Government’’ was NOT elected. They are there by the grace of an egomaniac vindictive politician blatantly feathering his own nest. This rabble needs removing and quickly, by whatever means
