The pre budget report (PBR) delivered by Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistar Darling yesterday was the nearest any Labour politician has yet come or is likely to come to admitting how comprehensively the party has screwed the economy during their twelve years in power. Even so, Darling could not break with the kind of deluional thinking on the economy that typifies Labour in power.

As he announced swingeing tax increases, cuts to public services and caps on public sector salaries, all of which will raise just a few billion pounds to set against the £178 billion (and rising) deficit and a Public Sector Borrowing Requirement that rises month on month Darling spoke of the shortfall being made up by a surge in growth. It is hard to see where this growth will come from. With tax revenues in freefall, unemployment rising and manufacturing in the doldrums, taking on more debt is the only way the government can service its existing debts.For almost a year they have been printing money, lending it to banks at 0.5% interest and borrowing it back at 2 - 2.5% interest. Such economics are lunacy.

Darling hopes the "surge in growth" will come from consumers suddenly taking leave of their senses and starting to max out their credit cards, run up overdrafts and loan debts and remortgage their houses in order to finance the spending needed for a "consumer led recovery."

As Vince Cable said, "The Labour economic boom was buit on sand, now they are trying to rebuild it on sand. As an example of people who do not learn from the past repeating its mistakes, Darling's Pre Budget Report takes some beating.

TF for David Attenborough, the man British people would overwhelmingly support if there was a vote to elect somebody as God. Vteran naturalist Sir David will tomorrow present a TV programme in which he will dare to name the real cause of climate change, the factor the Politically Correct Thought Police have prevented us discussing and the lying cheating, backstabbing scientists, eager to serve the interests of their corporate and political paymasters and further their own greedy sleazy interests, have refused to address.

THERE ARE JUST TOO FUCKING MANY PEOPLE.

Each person on the planet consumes resources and there just are not enough resources to go round. The problem mainly affects the developing world. This is blamed by the Politically Correct Thought Police on the west's exploitation. The science lobby stay schtumm because they know the real cause is science. Medical science can create drugs to eradicate disease and prolong life but scientists never think of the consequences of preserving and prologing life in nations where there are scant resources and science can change people's phyisical health but cannot affect attitudes.

Bangla Desh is a good example. The population of this country whose area is smaller than England has incresed by 50% since 1997 to a current 165 million.

How can they survive, how can that nation with little industry, a shortage of good quyality land much of it under threat from rising seas levels.

And yet obvious though this is it takes an octogenarian naturalist to say out loud what has been Staring. Us. In. The. Fucking.Face.

Get to know the Climate Change Science lobby, the scientists who tried to scam the world into spending tillions on useless scientific problems that would probable make the effects of climate change worse and certainly not mitigate them. By "get to know" I do not mean study their CVs, their family photo albums or their Amazon wish list, what you need to understand is the mindset what makes them tick. Examine what these people do and how they behave, not what they tell us about themselves.

What will strike you is the tribalism, cliquishness and determination to suppress any point of view that strays from the mainstream. Scientists, not just in this field but in medicine, food production, chemistry, electronics and fuel/power would have is believe they are intellectuals, possessed of academic detachment that insulates them from the secular concerns that drive mere mortals. They are lying of course. What you are about to read if you follow the link will reveal a group of small mined, self interested bigots whose work is driven by greed, desire for fame, status and power. Far from the curiosity and desire to extend the frontiers of human knowledge these scientists claim as their motivation we are shown people who will go to almost any lengths to cover up their errors, incompetence and deliberate deceptions and to shout down dissent.

These however are the people who have the ear of the Copenhagen Summit on Climate Change, who will influence the world's political leaders and whose advice, if acted on, will enrigh their corporate paymasters and impoverish the rest of us.

Anyobody who reads this page regularly will know we are not fans of Barack Obama. It is amusing that the Obots who mail us with "rapid rebuttals" of our attacks (pointless, we do not publish comments) assume we are supporters of the so called political right.

WRONG! Daily Stirrer editor Ian Thorpe is socially liberal, economically Keynsean, John De Roe is a a progressive conservative, Ed Butt is contrarian and Xavier Connolly is Old Labour. What they have in common is a lifelong mistrust and suspicion of authority and a belief that all politicians are wankers. Obama is no exception to that and comes in for particularly virulent criticism because of the way he encouraged America'd desperate democrats to treat him as a messianic figure. The world should always fear self proclaimed messiahs and Obama's similarity to Roman Emperor Caligula is more than casual.

OK, now you know where we stand. The colour of Obambi's skin is not going to get him any sympathy here.

What we would like to know today is what kind of a man, if man is the right word, who is the father of young girls, can appoint to a position of responsibility in the schools system the perverted little creep behind this report?

Paedos may not raise many eyebrows in Obama's weird world of terrorists, agitators, pimps, pushers, crooks, rent boys and scammers but we get the feeling if America's mainstream media was not doing its usual head in the sand act but was reporting this story as it ought to be reported the U.S. public would be up in arms about it.

Some might say this is nothing to do with The Daily Stirrer because we are an Anglo Irish blog. We are in fact a world blog and we are commenting on the most powerful leaders in the free world (for the moment at least) and a man who seems to have no problem in deluding himself he was elected President Of The World.

The Copenhagen climate summit organised by the United Nation, it's about saving the planet, right?

WRONG.

We all know now the scientific data used as "evidence of anthropogenic climate change" was faked, made up, manipulated to provide the answers the political establishment wanted. The language of climate change was a givaway as was the self righteousness and assumption of moral sueriority among the climate change believers. Anthropogenic climate change was one of the gospels of the new religion of Science.

It was easy to persuade most people to go along with it, this stuff had been worked out by scientists and scientists are very clever people if a bit nerdy and not great drinking companions unless you like to talk in equations and numbers. Everyone knows scientists are clever, they told us so themselves. Few people questioned their cleverness because scientists are always right aren't they? They're scientists.

To the sceptic and contributors to this web page have to be fully paid up, card carrying members of the sceptical bastards club, it was clear at an early stage that the science involved in predicting climate change was the science of guesswork. The premise that weather patterns can be changed by ...TO READ ALL CLICK THE LINK

In a surprise statement today the world's leading climate change expert annouced that he hopes the Copenhagen climate change summit, billed as our last chance to avoid a global warming catastrophe, ends in failure. Any deal struck, according to James Hansen, would involve the creation of a carbon trading market and in putting the interests of capitalism ahead of solving the problem would only make matters worse...

It is always a pleasure to be able to take the piss out of a boy scientists and as I got a bollocking today from our new contributor for spelling his name incorrectly (bit much, it's only a pen name) I feel like winding someone up. Not much point on the web you may think, it is very hit and miss whether the right person will find it. Well this person, like most of those I refer to as boy scientists, is a science writer for The Guardian and their whole science and technology team is made up of the kind of sad acts who Google their own name incessantly to see who is talking about them.

Today's boy scientists of the day is Adam Rutherford and he is burbling on ecstatically about the Large Hardon Collider, the machines that when it is switched on gets scientists very excited before it breaks down.

This ludicrous piece of kit cost an absolute fortune, in the region of £6 billion we are told, and though it is a tremendous undertaking nobody quite knows what it will achieve. This means it will be hard for anyone to know if it has actually ever worked properly. Now Adam gives us the usual guff about scientific methodology and the wonderful curiosity of the human race, the urge to explore and discover, to cross lines and take leaps into the unknown. All that is good stuff right enough but our evolution to the highest life form on earth and as far as we know the only intelligent life form in The Universe is not because of our curiosity, desire to pull things apart to find out how they work ., leap into the dark, cross lines and boldly go where no man has gone before. Oh no, it is much more to do with our ability to think things through, minimise risk, work out the approach least likely to get us killed, and weigh the benefit against the cost.

Those who place curiosity ahead of intelligence are more likely to be candidates for the Darwin Awards than the Nobel Prizes. Look at this statement...

The LHC is the biggest and most expensive experiment in history, as befits asking the most fundamental questions in the universe: why does stuff have mass? It's a hard question, and thrilling in its pure curiosity.

Pure curiosity. So these brainless bastards think that pure curiosity is justification to getting the taxpayers to stump up for what amounts to the biggest toy in the world. Elsewhere Adam talks of the secrets of the Universe which the boy scientists with the Large Hardon hope their toy will help them discover when it smashes sub atomic particles to bits by firing them into each other. The idea the Collider might do this is based on a theory, a good theory as it happens but a theory that is really untestable, that a sub atomic particle named the Higgs Boson, a thing so tiny and slight it has almost no mass but according to the theory is responsible for holding the fabric of the universe together. Trouble is nobody knows if the Higgs Boson exists so if the experiment finds one will anybody be able to recognise it?

That is what I mean by thinking things through. One would suggest that discovering the secrets of The Universe is not exactly top of humankind's list of priorities now, not that anybody would understand the secrets of the Universe if the written text dropped out of the sky carved on a tablet of stone. There is no more hard evidence to support big bang theory than there is for the book of Genesis. For big bang all we have is a scientists attempt to make some sense of the origins of life conundrum by doing some highly speculative equations using the same technique of making up the data in order to provide the required answer. For Genesis we have a Bronze Age fairy story. And yet we are told the former is "science" and therefore we must accept that as proof it is right.

At least the Bronze Age people knew their creation myth was just that, a myth. They left us precious little information on what they really though but among those fragments we learn that they understood life had begun "long, long ago, before men had understanding." When you think about that it is a lot more intelligent than: "All the matter and all the time and space in the Universe was compressed into a pellet the size of a rat turd and then suddenly there was an explosion and the Universe popped into existence and it has been growing ever since." The trouble with scientific curiosity you see is it afflicts people who just aren't intelligent or perceptive enough to say, "We just don't know," which is actually the answer to most of the great questions.

If people don't know what they are looking for how are they going to know they have found it. And is if that were not complicated enough, the fact of their not knowing if it exists or not makes the problem a trillion times more complex.

An earlier particle collider, the not-quite-as-large-as-the-large-but-larger-than-the middle-sized-hadron collider fooled the science heads into thinking they had discovered the Higgs Boson. What their sensors had picked up was in fact the moons magnetic field. And the sensor was located three hundred feet deep under the earths surface. See what I mean? The project is seeking such slight traces of energy the scientists could be fooled into thinking they have discovered the meaning of life when in fact they have recorded the electron - magnetic interference generated by a cockroach fart.

Take a look at Adam's article (What Price The Secrets Of The Universe) and decide if you think he is one of a rare breed, a man whose life is dedicated to pushing at the boundaries of human knowledge in the hope of extending our mastery of all things in the physical universe until, like Gods, we are so smart we can grwate matter by will power alone or if his obsession with "science" (the boy scientists use it as a magic word, they don't even know what it means) has led to his having travelled so far up his own arse he can scratch his head from the inside?

There is no doubt the 30,000 extra American troops Barack Obama will in a few hours announce are heading for the killing fields of Afghanistan are going to make a big difference to the outcome of this insane war. The moment the imbecile Obama make the announcement the war will escalate. It will not be a noticeable increase in violence, not for a while at least. The fighting and the level of casualties may well decrease in the short term. The Taliban fighters migh just mely away into the hills and villages as they did after the initial assault by American and NATO troops in 2002. What will increase in the Islamic world is the simmering resentment of the west, resentment that the west cannot leave the Islamic world to manage (or not manage depending on your point of view) its own affairs.

The people of the east, the Arabs, Indians, Chinese and Japanese are masters at playing the long game. They do not mind waiting a generation or even several generations for eventual victory. Short termism is the creed in the west and western leaders like Obama and Gordon Brown are so arrogant they expect everybody to play by our rules. They expect the enemy to stop shooting and surrender their arms the moment victory is declared.

These fools, these poseurs who claim intellectual superiority but are as ignorant of history as they are of human nature do not appear to have ever in their worthless, freeloading lives picked up an objective book of history. Had they done so they would know that to the eastern mindset the war is not over until the last one of the enemy is dead.

Somehow I think neither the vacillating, emotionally needful Obama not the dithering Brown, as ever struggling with his inner demons, self doubt, inferiority complex, religious prejudices, has the stomach for genocide.

If the allies go ahead with this we may be in for the kind of perpetual, low level warfare waged by the Ministry Of Peace in George Orwell's increasingly prescient looking novel 1984.

In reality as in the novel it is the ordinary people who will suffer while the elite, the axis of incompetence, continue their undending self congratulatory jamboree. In nations already bankrupted by the economic illiteracy of their leaders the future looks to promise a rough ride.
