CLIMATE HYSTERIA GOES UP A NOTCH (OR TWO)

You may have noticed that "Global Warming" has in the last few weeks been upgraded to "Global Boiling."

If you are not already sweating at this terrifying thought, then you will be dismayed to learn that, following a measured increase of 0.05% in the temperature of the rain that is currently falling on most of Britain, the term "Global Scalding" will shortly be disseminated on all mainstream media.

The government denies that it is considering locking down the country to save lives. However, staying indoors is strongly recommended, as fire brigades will be unable to cope with the huge numbers of expected cases of spontaneous combustion as humans are overcome by the universal heat.

NO it has NOT.

It is still [i]climate-change[/i].

That word "boiling" was used by one incautious politician who should have thought before inventing such a lurid metaphor about the heat-wave and fires in some parts of the world.

[i]Which[/i] government of [i]which[/i] country gave that advice? It would seem eminently sensible if you are downwind of a forest fire.

"Spontaneous combustion"? Not really in good taste even if you intended it as black humour.
