I don't think that being "thick" is the issue. It's the lack of integrity
that I loathe. The willingness at the drop of a political well pensioned hat
to distort the truth.
Are you really telling me that Paticia Hewitt is thick, that she didn't
check with her researchers?
Any british government that resides in power manages the UKMO, they are
civil servants, thefore it's naivity at its worse to assume that Hewitt
didn't or could not get the facts straight from UKMO
Even though this could be construed as me over reacting to Hewitt's weather
lies. It is typical of a government that is constantly guided by an army of
advisors and spin doctors. Remember the email that was exposed by the media,
when Jo Moore wrote to Steven Byer's immediatley after 9/11 advising
"its a good day to bury bad news".
I don't know about you but I would be ashamed to make statements like
Hewitt. In fact I would be compelled to rectify my mistake if it had been a
mistake. This was no thick mistake, it was a deliberate attempt to rewrite
winter 2005/6 and that in my book is lies, Maybe some people do not read the
same books as me.

All I've heard all morning is that interview of Ms Hewitt saying "we
have just had the coldest winter in years and the hospitals coped" so
it's ok to sack all the nurses.
Why the BBC or even the MetO let this mis-information be repeated time
and time again I don't know. It devalues all the work and science
what's involved.
It just shows how 'thick' the people are who are running this Country.
