Ann Widdecombe Page.:--
No more lies on the global climate front.
How long will it be before the voice of reason prevails over
the cynical cowardice of climate-change scientists who
are faced with increasing evidence that they have it wrong
but are too deeply dependent on huge government spending
to admit it.
A scientist who has worked for Australia's Dept.
for Climate Change recently admitted that nobody started out
to mislead, but by the time the evidence was pointing the other way
there were too many jobs, industries, trading profits and political
careers riding along on this nonsense.
Strong words but they reflect the growing unease.
Now that some scientists are daring to put their heads above the
parapets, how long must we wait before politicians follow suit.?

Gillard Comment to The ABC.
Prime Minister Julia Gillard says she didn't mean to mislead people when just before last year's federal election she said there would be no carbon price under a government she led.
"I've explained of course to the Australian people that I never meant to mislead anybody during the last election campaign about carbon pricing," Ms Gillard told ABC Radio.
She said she has always thought the best way of putting a price on carbon was a cap and trade scheme.
"We're going to get there through a path I didn't expect during the election campaign of a fixed price period for around three to five years," Ms Gillard said.
"So yes, the route to the objective is different.
"When I said those words in the election campaign I didn't mean to mislead anybody and I understand that people heard those words and they look at what's happening now and they perhaps say: `What's going on? What did she mean then? What does she mean now'?"
