Great article about how climate activists have taken over the Met Office, and resulted in poor resource allocation to deal with the unusually harsh winters.

Excerpts from the article...

What seems completely to have passed Mr Quarmby by, however, is the fact that in these past three years the Met Office’s forecasting record has become a national joke. Ever since it predicted a summer warmer and drier than average in 2007 – followed by some of the worst floods in living memory – its forecasts have been so unerringly wrong that even the chief adviser to our Transport Secretary might have noticed.

The consequences of all this are profound. Those who rule over our lives have been carried off into a cloud-cuckoo-land for which no one was more responsible than the zealots at the Met Office, subordinating all it does to their dotty belief system. Significantly, its chairman, Robert Napier, is not a weatherman but a “climate activist”, previously head of WWF-UK, one of our leading warmist campaigning groups.

Political motivation is hardly an anomaly in American science labs, either.

Jefferson was correct about the essentiality of an informed electorate to the future of America. With corrupted science, neither citizen nor elected official can make valid decisions.

“Agenda Uber Alles” is not acceptable in our science labs, nor in our educational facilities.

It is long past time to muck out the intellectual stables which out schools, universities and labs have come.

FIRE THE ACADEMENTED! ! !
