Petition To Stop Gordon Brown Insulting The Voters

Here:
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stop describing members of the public who question the veracity of Anthropogenic Global Warming as climate change deniers.
As a relative novice at political campaigning, I would have thought the golden first rule, rather like business, is never insult the customer / voter. Not so Gordon Brown apparently:
"With only days to go before Copenhagen we mustn't be distracted by the behind-the-times, anti-science, flat-earth climate sceptics,"
and:
"Those people who have become global warming deniers and those people who have become climate change deniers are against the grain of all the evidence that has been assembled..."

  1. What do you call someone who thinks nuclear power is a great plan because he knows the difference between fusion and fission?

  2. Gordon Brown's grasp of economics could, at best, be described as child-like, so I think I'll treat the saviour of the world's comments about global warming with the contempt they deserve.

  3. Uncle Marvo: I don't know, what do you call someone who thinks nuclear power is a great plan because he knows the difference between fusion and fission? :-)

    Paulo: Good point, though if anything if the petition becomes popular it may wind him up. It's worth it for that surely?
