British National Party (BNP) Also Anti-Science

It isn't particularly surprising that the BNP (British National Party), given its overall position on the English political dial, is "skeptical" of the science behind AGW. But you can tell much about a Conservative by the quality of their denialism. And in the case of the BNP, its pretty low. Here's an excerpt from the first edition of "The Comet", their newsletter for British youth:

The National Curriculum, which decides what you’re being taught in school, makes a big thing out of global warming. It tells you that mankind’s activity on earth in the last 150 years (since the industrial revolution) has caused more “greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere. You are being taught that we should stop driving around in cars, recycle our rubbish etc, then the Earth’s climate would settle down. Now, hold on just a minute! The Earth’s climate has always gone through cycles of heat and cold.

A very good website shows a graph of these cycles, from 2500BC until now:

Admittedly, it is a very nice graph:

...but if you've followed this blog for any length of time you will have seen it before, because I've written about Cliff & Randy Mann's Long Range Weather before.

Not to repeat myself, but here's the short version; their long-range weather predictions are based upon biblical exegesis.

Good luck to my English readers (assuming I have any, that is).
