Always amazed how people feel entitled to comment on the topic when they don’t seem to be able (or are plain unwilling) to distinguish between current local weather conditions and long-term global climate trends.

Joss,

At least you aren’t misrepresenting science in this post.

Although that does mean that all you are left with is the hope that you can smear your political rivals as Racist, BNP or “neo-nazi” as per your last post.

Is smearing rivals the only tool you have left in your fight to save the planet? If so the earth is stuffed.

Billy,

In what sense is drawing attention to an straightforwardly racist posting on North’s blog ‘smearing’ him?

North is bringing himself into disrepute pretty successfully. Or do you think calling people ‘jungle bunnies’ is fair enough?

Billy Blohard – where’s the ‘smear’? North has used an explicit, racist term on his blog. Garman points this out. As for the accusation that the correspondent is guilty of ‘misrepresenting science’: one instance, with proof, would be handy. Otherwise you just look silly.

Bigot!

Not sure if this quite counts as a smear, Billy, since the claims made are true. Unless you think he didn’t make any of these comments? In which case, evidence please. Or perhaps they are not racist, but simply misunderstood? Maybe they were taken out of context? That’s so easy to do with “Jungle Bunnies”.

Watt did tweet (hyper)links to the BNP, citing them as evidence for his claims. This doesn’t necessarily make him a racist. It does rather paint him as an idiot, though.

There claims have, time and again, been refuted. This is not a post in which his science is debunked, but a report on his racism. Given North is a political creature, that’s something I’d want to hear about.

THEIR claims. THEIR. Doy.

So someone used the phrase jungle bunnies without referring to any person, group, race or country in particular. Not that big a deal is it? You should get out more, there is a lot worse everywhere.

Joss Garman – Another day, another smear eh?

Nice to see the posh boy eco toffs and their gang of middle class wusses haven’t changed.

When the science doesn’t work start the smearing seems to be your agenda…

Oh, noes. The racists and the ignorant have been caught out with no pants on, metaphorically speaking, and can only respond with insults and the weeping of the butt-hurt.

I wouldn’t condone such terms – Dr North is however gifted in many good things. The left are always talking about overpopulation in the third world, and how there are too many people… do you think the rest of us are blind to what their ethnicity is? – Leftist climate policies will do much damage to developing economies through unaffordanle carbon restrictions – designed to ‘change’ a perfectly natural process ie. Climate Change – been doing it for how many millions of years…

Anon,

“we are going to fry unless we pay zillion of dollars into the kitty for jungle bunnies and development corporations such as Oxfam.”

This statemrnt is racist, is it not. If you disagree, I would like to know on what basis.

“There are a lot of Kermits to the west of Dover … to say nothing of the Dagos and sundry others. These are to be trusted?”

This is racist and zenophobic as well. How is highlighting these statements a “smear” of Richard North?

its a real shame that global warming debate is so polarised. i couldnt care less if richard north is racist or not.

@Anon E Mouse

Not my eveidence but evidence gathered by thousands of scientists around the world over the past 50 years.

As you know, it’s all summarised by the UN’s IPCC on its website.

Go there, take the batty rightwing blinkers off and learn something for a change rather than running for the nearest comfort blanket of AGW denialism.

And all the Himalayan glaciers will be gone by 2035!!! All on their ludicrous and discredited website.

ps, breaking research shows clouds and climate linked heavily to galactic cosmic rays.

“The science is indisputable.”. No science is indisputable. If it is then it isn’t science, it is faith. This is a fundamental tenet of science. Re: climate change, if I can quote Phil Jones from CRU…

interviewer – When scientists say “the debate on climate change is over”, what exactly do they mean – and what don’t they mean?

Phil Jones – It would be supposition on my behalf to know whether all scientists who say the debate is over are saying that for the same reason. I don’t believe the vast majority of climate scientists think this. This is not my view. There is still much that needs to be undertaken to reduce uncertainties, not just for the future, but for the instrumental (and especially the palaeoclimatic) past as well.

http://tiny.cc/dca6t -Yes,he's a tit,and 'jungle bunnies' is a racist term,but citing UrbanDictionary as though it's some kind of authority?

scandalousbill – The problem as I see it is that individuals such as this Joss Garman fellow don’t actually do anything other than promote a cause – usually one that benefits themselves and their control freak agenda.

Remember Garman says it was OK for Friends Of The Earth to collude and lie to the Zambian government about GM food causing cancer and the Americans were trying to kill them with it… which resulted in thousands of innocents starving to death under the African sky. Seems to me the posh boy eco toff needs to check his FACTS before such statements. I digress.

After the Plane Stupid campaign was made redundant by the actions of the coalition government in the biggest green issue ever tackled in one go, (remember Labour wanted Runway 3 at Heathrow) Garman and his cronies decided to move sideways into politics.

Fine. It’s a free country but what I don’t like is that it always ends up with the poor being stiffed with extra “green” taxes on petrol that hurt the disadvantaged.

It won’t affect posh boy eco toffs like Garman and his bunch of middle class wusses who’ve never done a days work in their lives but there was a time when Labour used to care about the poor and I long for a party that represents that demographic.

So with nothing better to do Garman now joins the control freak tendencies of
the Labour Party and starts his smearing.

If this guy is a racist so what? Ignore him. Have nothing to do with those types of people but don’t use it as an excuse to show your true colours, which Garman has by displaying the fact he is nothing more than a dishonest smear merchant and should be also ignored…

BenM – And your PROOF that the “climate change” is man made is…

Mr.Sensible – In the ivory middle class world in which you live you seem not to have noticed that the duty on petrol has not stopped increasing or that VAT on petrol and duty goes up in January next year.

I suppose when you don’t have to worry about money as you and the posh boy eco toff Joss Garman obviously don’t, you won’t have noticed it.

One day Labour might start caring about the poor and disadvantaged again…

greg

so stories about the world (or antarctica) warming up recently is somehow support for human induced climate change?

no didn’t think so

The climategate scandal continues nothing was resolved at all. I think I should get on the gravy train for all this lucrative research money one can rich real quick on these monies. All you have to do is back a theory that can’t be proven.

‘Pontaprint’ (honestly: why can’t you ‘sceptics’ have the courage of your convictions and use your names?), look on the right of your screen. The excellent ‘Climate Progress’ will help you in your confusion – if you have the intellectual courage to pay attention.

His response is quite illuminating …

http://eureferendum.blogspot.com/2010/11/climate.html

If he’s serious, he’s basically forwarding a radical defence of racist slurs in and of themselves. Why the defensiveness last time he was exposed (on “Kermits” and “Dagos”), then? And will he therefore be peppering his future writing with the liberal use of terms like “nigger” and “paki” – all in the name of tolerance, free speech and anti-PC-ness? What a scumbag.

Janie_S – grow up.

Anon E Mouse – you too. Want evidence? Go look over the mountain of evidence accumulated by scientists the world over.

It is neatly summarised by the IPCC on their website. I know you know where it is.

Stop confirming all my prejudices about how dim and gullible most rightwingers actually are.

I have read the IPCC front to back, dumbo. I am also a Physicist, Programmer and Statistician. I know bull when I read it. The Himalayan glaciers will not be gone by 2035, 90% confidence or not. There is no evidence that humans are causing a climate catastrophe. None. We are changing the climate and have done since the advent of rice farming in the far east 8000 years ago. The question is how significant is it. We do not have the answer, yet.

If the evidence was so damning they wouldn’t have felt the need to use dodgy WWF propaganda to back up their catastrophic position.

Gregory Norminton – People don’t use their names because Labour, being intellectually bankrupt, resort to smearing instead of defending their position. I accept that they are following their previous leader, the deceitful thug Gordon Brown but that is not an excuse to behave as badly as they do.

Perhaps you should think about “playing the ball” Gregory because the way your party uses legislation to force it’s control freak tendencies on the population is a disgrace.

Ask Walter Wolfgang, David Kelly’s widow or Gillian Duffy…

Anon E Mouse – I am neither a Labour party member nor have I ever voted Labour. You know nothing about my politics; but I know that you are paranoid.

I find it interesting that AGW deniers are so keen in their pursual of evidence when it comes to their views being challenged, but have complete faith in their supposition that every who doesn’t agree with them must be ‘middle class wusses’ (as if being a AGW denier makes you some sort of Mr Apollo, even if you have to hide behind a pseudonym) or ‘posh boy eco toffs’. I don’t remember any of you coming round and means testing me…

And it’s always the poor that suffer with stupid “green tax escalators” and other means of taking more and more money from people using this stuff as an excuse.

Perhaps if all the taxes taken in this Green scam went into renewable energy sources or nuclear power then it would be OK but they don’t.

We had the crazy situation with that last useless government where they were charging taxes on flights whilst proposing increasing the number of runways at Heathrow. Bonkers stuff.
