    Ah, political point-scoring by pretending complex things are simple and can be done with a wave of the hand. How novel.

    How long is a wave? The Greens have been in government for two and a half years. When they went in, their top priority was ostensibly climate change. The government have not so much as drafted the first step in mitigating emissions, that is, a climate change bill. There really is no excuse.
    "But do 'climategate' revelations justify the sceptics’ claims that this is “the final nail in the coffin” of global warming theory? Not at all. They damage the credibility of three or four scientists. They raise questions about the integrity of one or perhaps two out of several hundred lines of evidence."

    How long did it take for FF to actually need Green support?

    Just pay the money and stop moaning about a few quid. Ibis told me years ago it was not about the money. It is not a tax, you are purchasing a very valuable carbon credit
