225. How the BBC ganged up with the militant Left to attack Jeremy Clarkson – Telegraph Blogs

Yesterday, the BBC went totally bananas over the Jeremy Clarkson non-story. In twenty-five years of journalism I have never been so inundated with interview requests. First in was the BBC Radio 2 Jeremy Vine Show; then BBC Radio Ulster; then the Richard Bacon Show on Radio 5 Live; then Scotland Tonight and BBC Wales; then the World Tonight on BBC Radio 4; then Channel 4 news (which, though not strictly the BBC is very much part of the same problem I'm about to describe). Oh, and today I'm doing Radio 5 Live again, followed by BBC World News. What the hell is going on?I got my answer from a chance remark made by Jeremy Vine after our interview. He was telling me about the phone-in he'd done the day before during the public sector workers' strike and what had astonished him was the mood of the callers. If I remember what he said correctly, one of his studio guests was a nurse on a £40,000 PA salary, with a guaranteed £30,000 pension, and this had not gone down well with the mother-of-three from Northern Ireland struggling as a finance officer in the private sector on a salary of £14,000 and no pension to speak of. The callers were very much on the side of the private sector. In fact, they were on the whole absolutely apoplectic that privileged, relatively overpaid public sector workers with their gold-plated pensions should have the gall to go out on strike when the people who pay their salaries – private sector workers – have to go on slogging their guts out regardless.This, of course, was much the same point Clarkson made on the One Show, albeit more colourfully.

226. Climategate 2.0: junk science 101 with Michael Mann – Telegraph Blogs

At last, I've arrived.Michael Mann, inventor of the Hockey Stick, has written to the Wall Street Journal branding me a "denier" and a "contrarian" and "silly." These are badges of honour I shall wear with pride.The letter is interesting for lots of reasons, not least its grotesque hypocrisy. "In recent years", he writes, "attacks on climate science have become personal" – as if somehow the real victims of all this are not the innocent taxpayers being screwed to pay for the great green boondoggle, but ordinary decent climate scientists like Mann and his Hockey Team just trying to get on and do their job.

227. In every area of our public life, the Left is losing the argument – Telegraph Blogs

The facts of life are Conservative – as Labour’s smartest minds now realiseIt is now widely accepted that the years of New Labour government were an almost unalloyed national disaster. Whichever measure you take – moral, social, economic, or the respect in which Britain is held in the world – we went into reverse.Nevertheless, historians may come to judge that these 13 years of Labour misrule served a vital purpose. In retrospect, the Brown/Blair period may be seen as a prolonged experiment which taught the liberal Left that its ideas cannot work, do not work, and have no chance of ever working.It takes time to ruin a country. Four years, the average period between elections, was never going to be enough. But 13 years of Left-wing government has produced a mountain of evidence that the Conservative analysis is better and more truthful.

228. The solution to the euro crisis? A European credit rating agency! – Telegraph Blogs

How do you suppose MEPs plan to get out of Europe's economic mess? By acknowledging that the single currency was a rotten idea to begin with? By allowing stricken economies to default, decouple and devalue? Nope. They plan to regulate, or even censor, American credit rating agencies; and, at the same time, to create a European one in their place. Italian MEPs, in particular, are tetchily telling the Commission to get a move on:

229. As the Wisconsin Tea Party gives Obama a bloody nose, Bill Clinton stabs him in the back –...

Tuesday night saw a double whammy rejection of Obamanomics – once by the voters and once by former President Bill Clinton. Given a choice, the people of Wisconsin took Republican fiscalism over Democratic populism in a recall vote that let Tea Party favourite Scott Walker keep his state’s governorship. Incredibly, Bill Clinton – the man the White House sent to represent the President during the election – compounded the result by admitting that the country was in a recession and by urging Congress to extend the Bush tax cuts. That makes him the most senior liberal in the nation to cast doubt on Obama’s economic strategy. The people of Wisconsin are trending towards Romneynomics in 2012. So too, it would seem, is Hillary Clinton's husband.

230. Now Lib Dems want drivers blamed for every crash with a cyclist and fined if a car strays into a bike lane

Motorists should be automatically blamed for any collision with a bicycle – even if the cyclist caused it by running a red light, according to a new policy idea from the Liberal Democrats.And drivers also face being fined for straying into cycle lanes, under plans published in the party’s autumn conference agenda.The proposal says that to ensure ‘justice for victims of accidents on the roads’ it is calling for a ‘consultation on the introduction of proportionate liability rules so that the default assumption after a collision is that the larger vehicle is at fault’.

231. Hilary Rosen debacle is payback for Democrats over their Rush Limbaugh attacks and 'war on...

Hilary Rosen's comments were a spectacular own goal by Democrats but also a result of their recent overreach in attacking Republicans for a supposed "war on women" and portraying Rush Limbaugh as the leader of the GOP.Perhaps the most preposterous thing Rosen said on CNN last night was not the foolish "never worked a day in her life" jibe aimed at Ann Romney but her contention that Republicans invented the notion of a "war on women"."Well, first, can we just get rid of this word 'war' on women?" she said. "The Obama campaign does not use it. President Obama does not use it. This is something that the Republicans are accusing people of using, but they're actually the one spreading it."The problem with that is (h/t Bob Obringer for most of these links) that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee drew up a petition protesting the "Republican war on women". So too did the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. And Nancy Pelosi described the Ryan budget as a "war on women".Not to mention such notorious Republican outfits such as NARAL, Emily's List, Daily Kos and MoveOn.org. Or the front group "Women of the 99 Percent" that has been making illegal robocalls across the country.Oh and then there was a person called Debbie Wasserman Schultz, who just happens to be chair of the Democratic National Committee. And as chance would have it was advised by, er, Hilary Rosen.

232. Greenpeace and The Guardian: yet again, sticking up for the bad guys – Telegraph Blogs

When is a scandal not a scandal? When it comes via Greenpeace and is splashed over the front page of The Guardian, I'd say.While obviously I'm delighted that The Guardian and Greenpeace think I'm so powerful that I have the ability to effect a 180 degree shift in government onshore wind policy just by the mere threat of standing in a by-election, I do think a little examination of news priorities might be in order here.In an op-ed for tomorrow's Daily Telegraph (which will probably appear online later this evening), I explain – not for the first time: but hey repetition is always useful if you want to get your idea across – why it was that I chose to stand in Corby as the anti-wind farm candidate. It's because I honestly believe that the Great Wind Energy Scam is by far the greatest scandal of our age. As I've argued time and again, in articles like this, this, this, and this, the wind industry is a very expensive solution to a non-existent problem.

233. White Wednesday changed politics utterly: I'll be celebrating the anniversary with a reunion in Oxford | Daniel Hannan, Daily Telegraph Blogs

The key date in modern British politics is 16 September 1992: the day the pound dropped out of the ERM. Much of what has happened since needs to be understood in the context of the damage done to the Conservatives and the way in which Labour benefited, despite itself, from the.economic recovery that began once sterling was unshackled.It’s worth reminding ourselves of what took place. The ERM had existed since 1979 and, by the late 1980s, was seen as a transitional phase on the way to monetary union. It takes an effort of will to recall quite how solidly the British Establishment, in those days, wanted to be part of the single currency. The CBI, the TUC, most newspapers (including Max Hastings’ Daily Telegraph), the Labour and Lib Dem parties: all called for ERM membership as a prelude to EMU.Margaret Thatcher had her doubts: she disliked the implications for sovereignty, and felt in her bones that the scheme was unsound economically.

234. Lambeth Labour face further questions over taxpayer-funded propaganda Left Watch

Lambeth Council - whose high taxes I have the misfortune of paying - have a long track record of propaganda at taxpayers' expense. In the past they have run poster campaigns making political attacks on austerity and welfare reform, and published costly newspapers attacking the Government, all the while complaining that they don't have enough money for actual services.This time, they've sunk even lower - which by the standards displayed so far is pretty low indeed. A new series of leaflets and posters seeks to scaremonger about changes to the fire service - presenting as a news headline a completely fabricated story about children dying in a Lambeth school fire.

235. Just why is Tory MP Tim Yeo so passionate about green issues? – Telegraph Blogs

For those who've missed it, Tim Yeo MP has been engaged in an online debate at the Centre For Policy Studies with former chancellor Lord Lawson on the subject "Is there an economic case for going green in an age of austerity"? As you'd perhaps expect from a man named "Politician of the Year" at the inaugural 2011 Green Business Awards, Yeo very much believes there is. We'll examine more closely why a Tory MP might feel so strongly about this in a moment. But let's first see what Lord Lawson has to say:

236. Nick Clegg's bigotry is holding back our recovery - Telegraph Blogs

Nick Clegg has a low opinion of his fellow countrymen. True, he withdrew his claim that opponents of same-sex marriage were 'bigots' – though contriving to do so in a way that seemed at once sly and half-arsed. But he stands by his assertion that Eurosceptics are 'infantile'.Around 45 per cent of the population oppose same-sex marriage, and I'd be surprised if every single one of them, from John Sentamu downwards, were actuated by an irrational dislike of gay people. Then again, what do I know? When it comes to opponents of the Brussels racket, though, I'm pretty confident that most people have well-founded economic, democratic and localist objections. The Deputy PM doesn't pause to consider this possibility. In his mind, only the 28 per cent of…

237. Wind Industry Big Lies no 1: fossil fuels are more 'subsidised' than renewables –...

Is Labour MP Barry Gardiner vilely dishonest or just incredibly stupid? Personally – since he appears to be a litigious sort of fellow – I'm plumping for the latter. That's why, I think it's quite possible that when he was at his public school Haileybury his nickname was "Dork Brain." (Though I have no more evidence for this than Gardiner does for most of his hysterical views on climate change)But I leave you to draw your own conclusions after his recent claim, in an interview with Energy Live news, that the Coalition is favouring fossil fuel energy over wind energy through generous subsidies.
