113. 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.

114. 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:

115. New Labour brought back slums and illiteracy, betraying Old Labour's legacy – Telegraph...

It is not unusual these days to hear something dispiriting or annoying on the BBC’s Today Programme (although it is still compulsive listening) but I was unusually shocked to hear last week a reporter’s account of conditions in Slough. She had accompanied a inspector from the borough council tracking down unauthorised buildings from wooden sheds to substantial breeze block buildings in back gardens of mainly terraced houses. These were it seemed, rented by a new generation of Rachmans to people living with little or no access to washing or toilet facilities.

116. Britain once had the greatest Civil Service in the world. Then along came New Labour –...

For some time I have found myself driven to the conclusion that not all the cock-ups of this Government are the responsibility of the politicians. Of course, most are. It must have been solely the decision of the Prime Minister to blame his country, that is our country, for most of the problems afflicting the world today, but I fear that the Civil Service has a hand in some of these unfortunate escapades.Sadly, I think that during the NuLab years great damage was done to the Civil Service.

117. 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…

118. 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.

119. Climate science is for second-raters says world's greatest atmospheric physicist –...

Popcorn time in Westminster this week, where the House of Commons Energy and Climate Change Committee met to grill two sets of witnesses on the pros and cons of the IPCC's 5th Assessment review. (Watch the video here) H/t Bishop Hill.Three things stood out for me: the bullying, bluster and arrogance of the committee's chairman Tim Yeo; the unnecessary rudeness of John Robertson MP ("Not a lot of people agree with you. You've had your chance to sell your book," he told Donna Laframboise who had flown over from Canada especially to testify); and the wearied patience teetering on the brink of Olympian contempt of Dr Richard Lindzen, professor of atmospheric physics at MIT.

120. A recession made in Downing Street – Telegraph Blogs

Ed Miliband is right. This is indeed a recession made in Downing Street. It was manufactured painstakingly over a decade, first in Number Eleven and then in Number Ten, by Gordon Brown. The lugubrious Fifer inherited a Chancellor's dream scenario: falling expenditure, rising revenues, strong growth and low inflation. For two years, as promised in Labour's 1997 manifesto, he stuck to Conservative spending plans, and debt was paid off. Then, purposefully and methodically, he started blowing everything away.

121. When did the Left ditch democracy? – Telegraph Blogs

The Left once stood for democracy. In the tradition of the Levellers, the Chartists and the Suffragettes, the British Left once fought to take power away from the elites and dispersed it among the people. The Labour party, when founded by Keir Hardie, stood up for the working man – and woman.No longer. The Left simply does not trust people.They have become not merely undemocratic, but anti democratic. Rather than standing up to elites, the Left actively defends the concentration of political and economic power in the hands of an unaccountable few.

122. Ed Miliband's speech: nice delivery and a new "One Nation" theme - but no substance or indication of economic maturity | Left Watch - ConservativeHome

Ed Miliband finished delivering his big conference speech a short while ago. It was nicely delivered (impressively, Miliband spoke for more than an hour without notes), felt strong and purposeful, and had a positive message of solidarity: "One Nation". Indeed, Miliband said "One Nation" countless times, determined to drill home the message and audaciously take the label away from the Conservatives.

123. Tim Yeo - like a cross between Ebola and Chris Huhne | Telegraph Blogs

Tim Yeo has been all over the media like an outbreak of Ebola today, alleging that George Osborne is trying to sabotage Britain's "green energy revolution" by tinkering with the Coalition's draft energy bill.Tim Yeo, president of the energy and climate change select committee, said: "The Treasury has clearly intervened in the draft bill in a way that will put up bills to consumers and put off investors by increasing their risks."This is exactly the opposite of what the Treasury says it wants," he told BBC News.Perhaps now is a good opportunity to remind ourselves why giving Yeo any kind of say in Britain's energy future is a bit like putting Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in charge of a committee with the remit Whither Israel?

124. Tory sleaze is worse than ever: Yeo and Deben must go! | Telegraph Blogs

I'm a bit concerned that the ordurous stench emanating from Tory peer Lord "Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy" Deben (formerly John Bovine Selwyn Encephalopathy Gummer) and Tim "Ebola" Yeo MP has yet to assail sufficiently large numbers of nostrils.All right, so Yeo got a proper going over in the Mail last week in a piece headlined Jolly Green Hypocrite: Tory MP earns £140,000 a year from Green firms and want to carpet Britain with wind farms (except in his own back yard)Guido also had a go at Yeo, noting more potential conflicts of interest, this time one apparently benefiting his chairmanship of a London cab manufacturer called – ugh – Eco City Vehicles.Then on Sunday, the excellent David Rose did a number on the possibly-even-more-putrescent-and-loathsome-in-every-conceivable-way Lord Deben. Here's the gist:

125. Climategate: Obama's boot boys strike back – Telegraph Blogs

When I first read this morning that the police had paid a nocturnal visit to the blogger Tallbloke to confiscate his computers I thought at first it was a non-story. Jolly annoying and inconvenient for Tallbloke, obviously, but nothing too sinister. Tallbloke was one of the first people contacted when mystery whistleblower FOIA 2011 leaked the Climategate 2.0 files onto the internet; the ongoing investigation by Norfolk police into the identity of the Climategate leaker has been singularly unsuccessful; so it seemed sadly inevitable that in their flailing desperation to be seen to be doing something, anything, to get their man, the Norfolk plod would resort to tactics like this.

126. Greenpeace's forest policy is unsustainable – Telegraph Blogs

Here is a guest post from one of my environmental heroes, Patrick Moore. The reason he's an environmental hero is because, unlike so many campaigners in the green movement, he doesn't believe that in order to save the world its necessary to destroy Western industrial civilisation.I highly recommend his superb book Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout which describes how he lost his faith in the organisation he co-founded:

So there we go.

128. With Tory MPs like this who needs to vote Labour? – Telegraph Blogs

Just when I've vowed to lay off writing about the wind industry for a while because I'm so utterly nauseated by its putrescent stench, along comes a story like this:Sacked Energy Minister Charles Hendry has not wasted any time cashing in on his expertise; he has just been announced as the chairman of the wind energy giants Forewind. The consortium comprising of four international companies -Scottish and Southern, RWE, Statoil and Statkraf – was awarded the contract in 2010 to build the huge “Dogger Bank” windfarm 125 kilometres off the Yorkshire coast.Though Hendry has waited for the appropriate cooling off period of three months since leaving government, a look through his declared meetings while a minister leaves an unfortunate taste in the mouth: between June 2010 and October 2011 Hendry hobnobbed six times with the representatives of the companies that make up Forewind, and now he is their boss.
