    We apologise for the late arrival of Global Warming....

    ... this is due to natural cooling which is outside our control. The 2013 warming has now been delayed to at least 2017. We are very sorry for any Carbon Taxes you may have paid for this service.

    If that why all the summers have been bad the last few years? Bring back global warming.

      The Mail has a harsher analysis
      Barbecue summer’ washout of 2009

      Snowbound winter it failed to predict in 2010

      Recent forecast-defying floods

      our £200 million-a-year official weather forecaster has become a national joke.
      In 2007, its Hadley Centre for climate change research produced a briefing document for the Government claiming its state-of-the-art computer models left no doubt: man-made global warming was a very real threat which needed to be addressed urgently by policy-makers.

      ‘The Met Office Hadley Centre has the highest concentration of outstanding people who do outstanding work, spanning the breadth of modelling, attribution, and date analysis, of anywhere in the world,’ claimed an expert from the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) in the document.

      Many in the Government were impressed for, a year later, the 2008 Climate Change Act was passed by an overwhelming majority.

      The act has been described by veteran journalist Christopher Booker as the most expensive legislation in history, committing the government to as much as £734 billion (£18.3 billion a year for the next 40 years) in extra spending to ‘decarbonise’ the economy.

      It is also one of the reasons why our countryside is being ruined by ugly, noisy wind turbines.
      How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

            I know, the climate is fine; no record rain here, or high temps in US and Aus, no massive flooding, no ridiculous increase in amount of hurricanes and tornadoes going on.

            No, it's fine...

              People think there are more murders here now, but there are less, just the media reports more on it, so it seems like more.

              There were all these things just as much 50, 100 and 1000 years ago.

                Surely you can see that all those Carbon taxes and public awareness have worked - warming has paused because we took significant action under the strong and decisive guidance of our leaders.

                  Hmm, no, there wasn't: When they say most rain since records began, highest temps since records began, then you're talking 1800's when they started records. I know, in the Hadley centre, some weather records are going back to the early 1800's.
