Francois getting all antsy about Big Ben.
Farage whining about his little flags.
Goldsmith becoming Lord Über-Hypocrite.
Johnson dicking about.
Patel being Patel.
British fascists planning their 31st celebrations.
Brexit. Any chance you could not be such an undignified shitshow?

December in Europe was a ridiculous 3.2°C warmer than the average for 1981-2010
Long term temperature anomalies are usually recorded in fractions of degrees!

I agree! It seems so unfair that only some floods warrant support!

New British citizenship rules claim that migrants with multiple parking offences may be barred from British citizenship as their history demonstrates 'someone of not good character'.
However, where does this leave repeat offender, Boris Johnson?

I didn't vote Tory, but even if I had, I would surely not have voted for Cummings. He was not a candidate, so how come he seems to be the only boss in government?
Dominic Cummings warned over civil service shake-up plan

Quite difficult to take this in when you consider the size of Australia.
The dark orange areas (most!) saw their highest recorded December temperature in 2019. – at Collets Green, England

Having worked in partnership with @PhialaM I rang a frail man of 92 to reassure him that he would get flood insurance from @floodre when renewal is due. He is surrounded by #floodwater & lives in fear of being flooded again. Luckily the water is receding. I really felt for him 😥

So disappointed that the @Borisfloodgrants aren't for all those who flooded this autumn, just those who flooded during a narrow window of time, oh & at least 25 houses in a community had to flood too, or else no 5k grant. 😪

#LiarJohnson. During the election campaign hé promised every flooded household a minimum of £5k. Only he didn’t mean those affected in Herefordshire. We don’t count. We can’t apply. Lost my home. Where’s your #StrongerVoice please @Jesse_Norman @bbchw @HTnewsroom #floods
I know he doesn’t ever make sense but this is off the scale

When they talk of ‘resilience’ they mention raising the electricity points. Totally ignoring the point that flood water is filthy and leaves contamination in its path. If we build on floodplains we need different types of housing. #floodaware

“THE TRUTH IS WE ARE OK TO BUILD IN FLOODPLAINS IF WE BUILD FLOOD RESISTANT HOUSES" so said Richard Benyon, MP last year. Our #floodadaptive homes can work well in floodplains and our sites will capture, store and manage floodwater efficiently.

Meanwhile, the reindeers take some time off from sleigh-training. Happy Christmas, all!

Australia. This is the road between Canberra and the Coast I think yesterday. The idea that it is somehow not right 'to talk about #ClimateChange at this difficult time' is frankly convenient bulllshit. Click on image to see what life is like now for the #firefighters .

#herefordshire today as thousands more tonnes of one of its most valuable assets disappears into one of its most vulnerable habitats.
