Global Warming My Arse

It's the 28th May and it's been lashing down for two days. Apart from that it's only 10 degrees centigrade. I only hope that all the tree hugging doom and gloom merchants are out on their bicycles getting soaked.

As far as I'm concerned the weather doesn't seem any different from when I was a kid a very long time ago. I am convinced that this global warming is just a lot of rubbish and the politicians have leapt upon it as a way of raising revenue with a load of very suspect 'green' taxes. Surely ice has been falling off of the polar regions since time immemorial. Wasn't it one of those that sank the Titanic. A lot of eminent scientists are saying that the earth's climate is affected by activity on the surface of the sun and a few of us driving around in Humvees is going to make naff all difference to anything. I tend to agree with them.

All this 'green' legislation goes hand in hand with other nonsense such as the banning of smoking in public buildings, pubs, clubs etc from the 1st July. I am aware that a majority of people don't smoke and are applauding the change but maybe they should consider it as yet another erosion of personal freedom, like all these cctv cameras pointing at us all day and micro chips in wheelie bins. Maybe the next thing they ban will be something you enjoy doing that irritates some pressure group with the ear of the government! How about caravans? Think on.
