Dominic Llewellyn is a good story, the lib dems talk about yah-boo politics and then one of them gets caught doing it!

I dont think folk are that bothered by Yah-boo politics unless it is on war or an emotional issue.

Lib Dems are funny though as they complain about it and in my experience the Lib Dems are the biggest peddlers of it! lol Nice to see one get caught out - It was a nohope seat for the Lib Dems even though they claim the opposite.

Now tests show the ice ISN'T melting: Sea water under shelf in the East Antarctic is still freezing
Daily Mail
"Sea water under an East Antarctic ice shelf showed no sign of higher temperatures, first tests showed today.Despite fears of a thaw linked to global warming that could bring higher world ocean levels, tests conducted on the Fimbul Ice Shelf showed the sea water is still around freezing point.Thanks to sensors, lowered through three holes drilled in the shelf, scientists have discovered the water is not at higher temperatures widely blamed for the break-up of 10 shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula, the most northerly part of the frozen continent."

Quaequam's piece is a pretty thorough demolition of Watt's self serving nonsense.sts
