On the other side of the Pond, the US Chamber of Commerce has the Sierra Club running scared with their Climate Trial idea (blogged about here previously). The Sierra Club now has a petition calling for companies to resign their memberships in the Chamber if they do not drop the […]

That’s it, yes, you. Thicky. Jana Bennett, director of BBC Vision*, said that members of the public (that’s you again, keep up you idiot) won’t understand why the salaries of our highest paid “stars” are so high. The issue is too complex for you to comprehend or usefully contribute to […]

The history of democracy in Europe is a mixed bag. In Great Britain we have been (broadly) free for a thousand years (give or take a few decades, and the bit since 1997). Other countries have been free for about as long as it takes to soft-boil an egg. And still […]

Typical of our Prime Mentalist to surface for a blatant photo opportunity in the desert. Entertainingly there is a veritable car-park full of vehicles neatly lined up behind him for the occasion.

As there is zero evidence that human carbon dioxide emissions have any effect on climate, authoritarian leftists using the global warming hoax as a Trojan horse for totalitarianism have resorted to computer models to prove whatever their ideology requires them to prove regarding the climate of the future. It’s a […]

Seen over at the unbeatable Croydonian today, this clip from one of the Fox affiliates is so hilariously low budget and, for want of a better word, naff, that it’s well worth watching. For those of you with a geekish slant, 38secs in is a pure C|N>K * moment. Enjoy. […]
