How to read a 'scientfic paper' about climate in 10 seconds flat 1. Look for the word 'model' or 'simulation' in the asbtract 2. If you find it, look for a section called 'validating the model against reality' 3. If you can't find one, junk the paper. Don't waste your time.

Net Zero is an act of national self harm. We weaken ourselves and strengthen China. We make ourselves poorer to appease a cult. We make our vulnerable colder to instead subsidise green vested interests. It is nothing more than an act of economic vandalism.

And maybe next time the #NHS might think it was their job to go the extra mile to protect us. Not our job to shut down our lives and go into hiding to protect them! #covid

What are they all doing? In my experience, nothing. I was a lay adviser to a local NHS building project. There were hundreds of 'NHS communications officers' with their fingers in the pie. But not an architect or engineer to be seen. All flim flam and PR But no actual result

At the very peak of Covid there were only 40,000 people in hospital who'd tested +ve within 28 days And 1,600,000 NHS staff to lok after them 40 staff per patient. #NHS was never 'overwhelmed'. Treating it as a Living God - worshipped but not criticised - was a BIG mistake

Look at the change over COVID! Maybe being forced to treat the #NHS as a Living God and to shut down our lives and go into hiding to protect it wasn't such a great idea after all Made more people look more closely and see what a total shambles it really is!

The ONLY purpose of the #NHS is to provide Healthcare to its owners/patients/customers. We need an external, independent audit of every NHS job and see how much it contributes to that purpose And if it doesn't, abolish the job, save the money and spend it where its needed

#NHS is NOT a charity. We are NOT supplicants at its table We should NOT be touchingly grateful for its services It's an organisation that WE own. We pay it LOTS of money to provide us with Healthcare Never be afraid to call it out when it lets us down No more #NHS worship!

I congratulate Lord Darzi in finishing a detailed report on the State of the NHS in just 2 months! But my Weybridge chum tells me hordes of NHS backroom staf have achieved absolutely nothing to rebuild it in 7 years since Weybridge Hospital burnt down bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

A reminder about Covid in UK We were forced to close down our normal lives, go into hiding..and the #NHS and its 1,800,000 staff were raised to the status of Living Gods. And all for the red square. Totally insane

Its going to be great! 'UK's Net Zero - The Scorecard!'

3 years ago we were all exhorted go vegan to Save the Climate or some such unlikely cause. But now Tesco are advertising steaks on TV. And M&S going big on pork Have tastes changed? Or have they finally realised we don't much like veggie grub? Or care about The Climate?

Is UK's #NetZero really Leading the World as claimed? See the scorecard here youtube.com/watch?v=TpaAmO…

How much Climate Change has all of UK's carbon reductions prevented? One thousandth of a degree C That's all Learn more here youtube.com/watch?v=TpaAmO…

How much Climate Change has all UK's efforts since the Climate Change Act ('NetZero') in 2008 actually saved? About 0.001C One thousandth of a degree. Did you notice? Do you care? Was it a Good Deal for you? For your family? For the country?

The world emits about 35,000 million tonnes of CO2 per year Which gives about 0.02C of climate change per year UK has saved a total of about 1,600 million tonnes over 14 years So saving 1.6/35*0.02C of change =~> 0.001C One thousandth of a degree C That's all

How much climate change has ALL of UK's efforts saved over the years? One thousandth of a degree! Did you notice? Do you care?
