United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon told our parliament that "the issue of irregular migration was closely linked to that of climate change". How stupid of me! And all this time I believed that the root cause was a combination of tyranny, corruption, tribalism, failed Marxist economics and genocidal warfare - you know, all the undesirable characteristics that tend to define many of the failed states that make up the United Nations.

To me it seems like that all this climate hullabaloo is the UN's sole reason for existing and for keeping thousands of bureaucrats feeding off the public trough. It pretty fails to deliver on anything else - it couldn't even run a food for oil program in Iraq. But if we are to indulge in this nonsense, we might as well play it to our advantage. You see Mr Ki-Moon, sea levels are rising so fast that Malta will diminish substantially in size that we simply cannot afford to take any more immigrants. So please, either scrap our country's emissions targets or revise your obsolete refugee convention. In the real world, you cannot have the cake and eat it.

The Keynesian binge

We are witnessing an unprecedented world-wide frenzy of public spending with figures so large that they have become incomprehensible - but they are real alright and they will have to be repaid at some point by the poor taxpayer. While apologists invoke Keynesian economics, I call it criminal. Would you, not being able to repay your credit card repayments, take out another credit card to repay the first? I hope not.

I always thought it would make rather more sense if you cut your spending and saved up a bit. That's what sane people would do, but then again, we inhabit in a different planet from that of politicians. Just to put things in perspective, the amount that will be borrowed by the UK from 2008 to 2014 in is more than the debt it ran up to win World War One, World War Two and the Napoleonic Wars combined.

It seems that where Napoleon, the Kaiser and Hitler could not exhaust Britain's financial resources, the Brown Government will do so. The Irony is that Gordon Brown had threatened to close down tax-havens - I believe that with this borrowing and the 50% tax rate he slapped on the ‘rich' he has ensured that they will thrive. I also think that Ireland is rubbing it's hands in anticipation, given this unexpected boom, it's recovery may well be much faster than everyone thinks. There are lessons of course in all this, lessons that we ignore at out own peril.

It's Official: Humans declared toxic.

The green faith reveals itself in full contempt. Humans are by their living, breathing nature now officially pollutants of this world:

The US Environmental Protection Agency has shifted course and deemed carbon dioxide a health risk and consequentially all breathing animals as toxic.

But what will trees use for food when carbon dioxide is eliminated?. Madness is on the hoof.
