KING'S ARMS MOONSHINE... - Biased BBC

KING'S ARMS MOONSHINE...: "When will the BBC finally wake up to the fact that 'climate change' is a scam? When will some light penetrate the thick skulls that inhabit the corridors of the corporation of overspend? When will they start writing balanced journalism instead of agitprop? The evidence of this piece about river flooding is not for a very long time. Lord Smith is a Nu Labour ex-minister who in his new role in charge of floods propaganda has become a latter day Cnut. The picture illustrating the alarmist hogwash is near the King's Arms riverside pub at York which I know very well. It has been flooded regularly by the Ouse since it was built in medieval times, so often that on the wall is a horizontal bar which charts the level of each incursion. It's a well-know tourist attraction. The reason for the floods is quite simple: the Ouse has been directed into a man-made narrow channel that can't cope if there's heavy rain in the Yorkshire Dales catchment area. For the BBC, of course, that's not important; it's proof of Lord Smith's moonshine.
