Quote of the Day
"We have the right kind of snow, just the wrong quantity" Boris Johnson 2/2/09, Radio 2
This snow, that started in America, and blew across the Atlantic to our shores, is now causing a global traffic meltdown. I will meet with the leaders of the G8 to agree tough new meteorological measures and to plead for unity in a new plan that I have jut made up, for $500,000,000,000,000 dollars for a new global snowplough and gritting scheme and a takeaway sachet of salt, like from the Little Chef, for everyone.
I further believe that we must increase warming levels to a 2006 summer average before the snow melts and the opportunity for Grandstanding is lost. Therefore I propose an immediate ignition of several hundred million hectares of Amazonian Rainforest.
We are the do anything, no matter how ridiculous party. They are the party of get a shovel and clear the path yourself...
