The Met Office and Doublethink

I an constantly amazed at the sheer blatant hypocrisy of the Met Office when it comes to global warming (have you noticed that now there is no evidence that the climate is in fact getting warmer it’s been subtly switched to ‘climate change’?).

As recently as 2009 Rachel Warren, a ‘climate expert’ at the now discredited University of East Anglia, presented a report in Copenhagen saying that Europe, including Southern England, would be subject to “enormous increases in drought over the 21st century” and we were warned that in future we would have to swap our lawns for gravel beds and our roses for cacti as the ‘global warming’ changed Southern England into a semi-desert – well try telling those on the Somerset Levels that!

Now, of course, the flooding is all down to ‘climate change’ (note no mention of global warming anymore) so says  Dame Julia Slingo, the Met Office’s chief scientist, even though she admits there is “no definitive” proof” of this. Even ‘call me Dave – hug a hoodie’ Cameron “very much suspects” that there is a connection ie he thinks there might be, but doesn’t actually know.

As for global warming, well it isn’t! Even the Met Office, the arch disciple and prime mover in this discredited theory now has to concede it, and buries it’s findings in a report issued last Christmas Eve, in the hope that no-one would notice

In essence, in2011 the Met Office’s computer model prediction had shown temperatures over the next five years soaring to a level 0.8 degrees higher than their average between 1971 and 2000, far higher than the previous record year, 1998. However, their new graph published last Christmas Eve shows a lack of any significant warming for the past 15 years and that this trend is likely to continue. Hence, no global warming, ah but we have climate change instead!

The BBC, ever the devotee of ‘global warming’ tried desperately to downplay the story, claiming that even if the temperature rise had temporarily stalled it would soon reappear., no facts of course to support this ridiculous statement.

It should be remembered that the UK’s Met Office has played a leading role in promoting the worldwide scare over global warming along with its ally the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, ever since the global-warming-obsessed John Houghton, then head of the Met Office, played a key part in setting up the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 1988.

In short, they all have something to gain and will change their findings to suit their theory as often is as necessary, in the Orwellian ‘Newspeak’ this is ‘Doublethink’ the ability not only to hold two contradictory opinions at the same time and believe them both to be  true, but to KNOW they are both true!

(1984, by George Orwell)

Orwell would be proud of them.
