‘An elderly woman was ordered to find a new GP because the “carbon footprint” of her two-mile round trips to the surgery where she had been treated for 30 years was too large.
Avril Mulcahy, 83, was told to address the “green travelling issues” over her journeys from her home in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, to the West Road Surgery…’
Warmistas…dishonest zealots one day, gibbering lunatics the next.

National would likely be able to form another government, according to today’s Roy Morgan Poll, but a Labour-Greens coalition would also have a shot if it could attract support partners…’
What the hell is NZ’s new Conservative Party doing? They attracted an amazing number of votes for a brand-new party, yet they’ve been silent since. There’s a deep groundswell of discontent among Kiwis and the CP is failing to capitalise on it.

‘Prime Minister John Key has put National’s good result in a new poll down to New Zealanders’ focus on the “big issues”.
A One News Colmar Brunton poll released yesterday showed support for National was at 51 per cent, up 1 percentage point since the last poll before the general election last November…’

Kiwis are beyond help. Socialist indoctrination has done it’s job.
