I’m a big Family Guy fan, and enjoyed their take on Star Wars, titled Blue Harvest. Here’s their next offering, Something Something Something Dark Side:

The AT-AT holding its shin made me post this

What great news: someone has hacked the server and emails at the Hadley Centre’s Climatic Research Unit at East Anglia University, strong proponents of man-made (anthropogenic) global warming.

The emails contain details on how to get round FOI requests, someone thinking it was “good news” that a leading sceptic had died (classy!) and this wonderful tid-bit:

“I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) amd from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline.”

Fraudulent scientific shenanigans indeed! Oh, by the way, it’s taxpayer-funded research as well – I understand that some more FOI requests have already gone in.

Here are some links on the story, which all should be required reading:

• Start of the story on Watt’s Up With That?
• Commentay by the Devil’s Kitchen, who was a hell of a lot to say on the matter
• James Delingpole at The Daily Telegraph
• Melanie Phillips at The Spectator

Unsuprsisingly, the mainstream media isn’t really reporting it, which is shameful. In addition to this fraudulent “science” being paid for by taxpayers, governments around the world are using this AGW as an excuse to raise taxes, to create complex carbon trading schemes (of which Al Gore is almost a billionaire off of) and some Labour twat has even suggestion a “carbon ration” for citizens in order to move about – usual Labour, restriction of freedom.

I always said it was a con, and hopefully now people will start to see that and be as mad as hell and not take it any more – the increased green taxes, made to feel guilty whenever they start up their car, that godawful advert on TV where the dad is reading that propaganda to his daughter, all that crap can stop.

Anthropogenic (man-made) Climate Change is a CON.

(That said, I’m all for reducing pollution, recycling things and solar panels – but not those sodding wind farms, they suck ass.)

Incidentally, here’s a telling picture of how the CRU have form for distorting data:

Cat’s out of the bag, methinks!

God, this takes me back:

Awww, yeah…

Edit: Watch the guys and gals behind the three drinkers – well, it made me smile.

Holy crap. Just when you thought Labour could do no more harm, sink no lower, surprise you at their sheer awfulness:

Lord Mandelson to become Minister of Information

I mean, wow… But… I…

Seriously, I need to have a lie down now. Am I really living in a 1984 world?

Aaaand I’ve just jizzed in my pants:

A big thanks to The Movie Blog – it may not be up for long, so watch it now!

I loved the original (saw it with my dad when I was young), looking forward to taking my son to this – it’s one of those “circle of life” things :-p

My philosophy:

No one’s gonna take me alive,
The time has come to make things right
You and I must fight for our rights
You and I must fight to survive

Whilst the rest of the country is sitting on its arse, claiming benefits, not working, not being productive, watching X Factor / Jeremy Kyle, terrorising the streets, those of us who do work – and I mean proper work, not some jobsworth crap in the council, suckling at the teat of the state – are taxed more and more, penalised more and more, and just basically screwed over more and more.

Well, no more. I vow to always rail against big government, to always question pogroms, to always question, to always fight for my rights (and not the Yooman Rights that Blair foisted upon us) – even when there may be no chance of winning:

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves” – Winston Churchill

Labour have absolutely ruined the Great Britain I loved. They have systematically destroyed the goodwill they inherited in 1997, pissed away all the money that came their way, allowed unfettered immigration to radically alter the look of the land (with no benefit whatsoever), screwed us over on Europe, ruined education, massively increased the surveillance state (no surprise given that the Left were friends with the KGB until the early 80s), turned us all into wishy-washy people who can’t think for themselves, launched unjust wars – ah, generally they’ve just f’d up the entire country.

I sincerely hope that the new Government (please don’t let it be Labour) will begin to rectify what Labour have done; they can start by having an “in or out” referendum on the EU, if we’re still in they can repatriate our powers, MASSIVELY cut the state in all areas (including those godawful quangos), sort out immigration, and for Pete’s sake, sort out the police, i.e. get them arresting criminals as opposed to members of the public. Oh, and they can drop that ID card AND the databases that will support it.

This rant is over, but there’s more, lot’s more. I read somewhere that Labour may become insolvent after the next election – I sincerely hope so. Anything that will keep them from EVER coming back and screwing us over again would be great.

And I do not believe that all politicians are the same. Thanks to the expenses scandal, there is going to be a considerable changing of the guard at the next General Election, with young blood should come change.

If not, I’m starting a civil war.

Here’s a fantastic new campaign from the people behind The Taxpayer’s Alliance – Big Brother Watch.

Not only do they have stories about Labour’s never-ending intrusion into our lives (e.g. spying on its own citizens computer use), but they have a fun competition: send off for your free stickers, slap one on the most heinous piece of Big Brother interference you can find, take a photo of it and send it in

H/T to Old Holborn

I found this via The Devil’s Kitchen (fruity language, be warned), a chance to receive a free book (first 5,000 ordered) on how Britain could be better off out of the EU in ten years time, when the book is set:

Ten Years On: Britain Without the European Union – click for a free copy

Franky, I’d love to leave it – I perceive no benefit whatsoever.

Just because I think it’s fun

Get your Portable ID!

Add me for some Tekken 6 matches where you’ll probably kick my arse, everyone else does!

I was quite a big Sherlck Holmes fan in my youth, and this, directed by Guy Ritchie and starring Robert Downey Jr., Jude Law, Rachel McAdams and Mark Strong, looks like a lot of fun:

I know it doesn’t look much like The Speckled Band, but there’s some artistic license there. A lot, in fact It comes out this Christmas…
