To suggest consumer backlash… is a red herring…a competitively priced commodity will always find its way onto the supermarket shelves.

The socialists have had a set-back – give them time (with DL’s expert assistance), they will return. Perhaps the next attempt will be under a different guise, but never a different aim. ‘Ve vill haf kontrol auf die werlt’ (cue the German National Anthem with appropriate modifications . . .)

(Not sure though, how they are going to make peace with islam – the ultimate threat and a grouping that hates the west, but no doubt such things will be ‘arranged’)

Why does not someone ask him in Parliament if he has any interest in carbon trading directly or indirectly through a trust or some other mechanism.

It was good to see Obamadinajad arriving home from Copenhagen on the Fox News last night to the heaviest snowfall ever recorded in Washington.

A few days ago, you said it would be “economic suicide” not to. Has your level of confidence decreased? if not, why not?

However, from a Government perspective, our ETS is wonderful tax grab opportunity that takes under the guise of saving the world… more like an investment really.

We’re so lucky in NZ, we can hand our ‘guilt money’ directly to Maori and have it stay in the country.

The more the exposures come out each day the scarier this thing becomes. The list is getting too long to detail now, with puppet strings and tentacles leading all over the place

Rod, I agree. I can’t understand how anyone who has read the links posted on this board over the past few weeks can honestly still believe in AGW unless they are in favour of this one world govt thing.

I think sometimes people just like to have something to protest against because it makes them feel good; they want to be the hero saving the planet and they’ll keep trying to be that hero long after the threat has been proved a hoax. It gives them a purpose. Very quixotic.

Never underestimate the ‘feel-good’ factor.

He was an irrelevant non entity (which, come to think of it, is the usual state of affairs with John Key) in a farce designed for lazy loud mouthed Africans to receive further handouts from hardworking western folk.

He should have stayed home and gone to the beach.

The “science” behind climate change has basically collapsed over the last couple of months. We’ve found that the CRU and hangers on have adjusted data to fit with the predictions their computer models have generated in order to “hide the decline”. Evidence that fits the outcomes they want to achieve has been selected while similar evidence that doesn’t is ignored. CRU and IPCC members have been found to have business interests in promoting carbon trading and other green schemes.

Future generations are going to use the IPCC climate change “research” as a text book example on how politics and religious belief can ruin proper scientific inquiry. Like Lysenkoism, or the “science” that the Vatican used to silence Galileo.

But still most politicians, including Key and Smith, act as if nothing has changed and that they still need to follow the policies promoted by the IPCC. Incredible!

They’re like children who have been told that Santa Claus is actually their parents. But are still planning to leave some snacks for Santa and his reindeer on Christmas Eve.

(Apologies to any readers who hadn’t heard about Santa. You would have found out the truth sooner or later, altho it is possible that Nick Smith is still a believer and planning a multi-billion dollar reindeer emissions trading scheme as we speak.)

And do you know what Mr J Key doesn’t actually believe this Climate Change BS or didn’t until he found out it could be used to divert money from the productive into the hands of the hands of the troughing class.
