    The media predict danger to health heatwave in Britain in the early part of next week, at 35c (95f) to 40c (104f) degrees depending on the news sources.

    https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...d-as-minister-says-temperatures-could-hit-40c

    I can’t remember it being that hot before. What struck me is that the link also mentioned covid cases rising, other sources harp on about climate change and so I wonder if we’re just back to the scares again, but this time involving the weather. Let’s see.

    (Gulp), were the extinction rebellion lot right and my head is going to melt? We’re in day two of the predicted dangerous heatwave said to reach 38 degrees and tomorrow it’s forecast to rain. I know it didn’t reach 38 yesterday because having lived in the sub-tropics I know that when it gets that hot, your skin starts to immediately tingle if you go out into the sun and yesterday it didn’t.

    Will Krispy’s head melt by tomorrow? Stand by for the next thrilling installment as one brave unvaccinated soul braves his back garden to bring you news of the next impending disaster after Covid fizzled out. Or as Freddie Mercury once said, "If I'm not back again this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on ..." :)

    WOW, that was close, but I survived. Stripping down to my skids I lay on the bed and holding a piece of cardboard madly waved my arm about to create a breeze that saved me from certain death. Still, it is summer and if it had snowed I’d have been really worried. Windmills, that’s what we need, lots of ‘em and plenty of as yet undisclosed alternatives to fossil fuels too.

    I look forward with interest in the next few days as we’re bombarded with media statistics of tens of thousands dying of heat exhaustion. Perhaps some budding entrepreneur amongst us could develop a vaccine to prevent death by two day summer heatwaves?

    Alternatively, we could make electric from coal fired and nuclear power stations and pretend it’s ‘clean’ energy? We could get the coal from China and blame them for the pollution. Anyway, it’s either that or freeze to death, but at least we’ll die of cold and not global warming.

    Don’t forget to visit Krispy’s oh I didn’t know that … news channel right here on the political forum. Be the first to say “F**k google, Krispy told me.” Better than the BBC [sniffs politely and takes a sip of tea] and the only alternative news you can trust. :)

    Naw, it's either because the Earth is getting closer to the Sun,

    or maybe the Sun is getting closer to the Earth.

    Yes, the more global warming the hotter it gets. The hotter it gets the less fossil fuels we’ll need to keep us warm. That’s the way to get to zero carbon emissions. We’ll still need the windmills though to keep us cool.

    Um, no.
    Please explain how a gradual temperature increase of 0.5 degrees causes a transient 20 or 30 degree increase that only lasts 2 or 3 days.

    I watched Sky coverage on Tuesday and the level of doom being presented was epic! I fully expected to see images of people simply combusting on the street.

    35 degrees (to say nothing of 40) without A/C isn’t fun for anyone and or those that are home bound it can be quite dangerous. However, a simple electric fan by an open window can be great relief. Last I was in Britain, however, I didn’t see all that many fans and people tended to close up their houses instead of opening them to a breeze.

    Ah, now you see, that’s the magic behind it. The temperature doom predictions only last for two or three days, then it rains and gets cooler and we move on to death by flu. I haven’t decided which one I prefer yet.

    The latest heatwave was a fluke, we don’t often see those kind of temperatures and so when we do the climate extinction lot go wild. Then when it rains it shuts them up.

    Get yourself a motorbike. It's much more fun to be crippled or killed that way!

    Would you believe it's also very hot here in Florida currently? It being summertime in Florida and all!

    But what if I suddenly get Covid, gasp for breath (Because it does that before killing you, you know) and fall off my bike and get injured, whilst lying in the road being slowly baked to death by climate change? Hot in Florida? In summer? You be careful. :)

    I'm still hopping around from my last disagreement with a motorcycle. When I laid it down on the grass at 50 mph I think I may have broken a bone in my foot and I'm still hopping around but I was able to stuff it into a boot and lace it up and go to work.

    I bet that damn covid broke the bone!

    ~ Don't forget when Covid strikes we all "beg for the vaccine " while dying ... :neutral:

    Naw, it was Trump or the Russians broke the bone. Certainly not covid, or you wouldn't be hopping around. :smile:

    Or a fan when it's hot. If we could combine the two we'd make a fortune out of it. Won't be hard to convince the sheep, they'd be lining up to buy our vaccine fan.

    I remember landing in Dominican Republic on holiday in 40c+ temperatures in about 2001/2. Yet for some reason, some think it's the end of the world in the UK?

    That's just the media being the media. Constant fear mongering and communist/leftist propaganda...

    It's been that hot (or almost that hot) before. It's what happens during the Summer. Records get broken much more often than you'd think.

    According to the media, "COVID cases" are almost always "rising"... and this is after over 2.5 years of "wearing a mask" and "getting jabbed" and "getting boosted" and "getting boosted" and "getting boosted". Obviously the masks and jabs don't work, unless one's goal is to injure or kill people.

    ... which is nothing more than a made up meaningless buzzword meant to incite fear. Climate is not quantifiable, thus climate cannot "change" in any way. Is there now "more climate" than there used to be? What 'changes' is the elements of weather, such as temperature and wind speed.

    Precisely! It is just more scares again, but this time involving the weather instead of a mild illness. The weather (more specifically the elements of weather) changes all of the time, and any such change can be described as (or blamed on) "climate change", whatever THAT means.

    It's all bullshit... it's all smoke and mirrors... It's all about government gaining power and control over the working class, making them poor and enslaving them.

    You've probably noticed that governments in the Netherlands (and now Canada) are attacking their own farmers, imposing stupid regulations on nitrogen emissions. All that's going to do is put farmers out of business and cause massive food shortages across the whole world. I'm surprised the Biden Regime hasn't done this yet, but they've got China and Bill Gates buying up any farmland they can get their hands on in the meantime...

    **** the World Economic Forum (and all government regimes bowing down to them).
    **** the "green new deal" "6uild 6ack 6etter" "green energy" agenda.

    Prepare for rolling blackouts (if you don't already experience them).

    Yup, and then when Summer is over it will get colder and colder...

    That's how seasons work, dude.

    I wonder if that death would be credited as a "COVID death", a "climate death", or both? It certainly would have nothing to do with your injury from falling off of your bike...

    Who cares? Want to go ride motorcycles and not worry about it? :)

    It must suck to be a lefty, waking up everyday to find some new cause to be pissed off about.... Constantly living in fear about global warming or global b******* or covid or monkey pox or whatever the new thing you're supposed to be afraid of is today.

    Things to stare at the ceiling and be in fear and anxiety about in your spare time when you can't sleep

    Well, he probably deserves it. I mean falling off your bike whilst unvaccinated? My God, what was he thinking of? :smile:

    Sometimes I might even drink and ride it reckless speeds on dirt roads.... But it's private property in the country. :)

    They say alcohol and guns and alcohol and motorcycles do not mix..... But all of them are just more fun together ;)
