Climate change? What climate change? 08:54 - Jul 19 with 1525 viewsDJR

Following a complaint from someone that it is generally only the Guardian that people use as a source on this website, I thought people might be interested in this from the Telegraph.

I can never tell whether people like her are just morons or something more sinister.

So I've stopped reading her columns, and I go here for all my informative opinion pieces these days: https://onedio.co/content/15-words-of-wisdom-from-homer-simpson-10569

Oddly enough, I read that yesterday with a massive splutter at her determined stupidity (laced with an utterly unfunny dialogue-style intro).

I wonder if she's playing the part her masters require of her, or really does think that temperature records dropping everywhere is 'just the summer'.

Why is that so many people who 'just tell it straight' chat such utter sh1t?

My payment didn't go through this month for my subscription - I'm wondering if this is a higher power telling me I'm doing wrong and to sort it out. I like reading what the other side has to say, but i hate funding it. Anyone got a good subscription skipper?

She's a headcase that one. Still, hats off for getting paid to be a contrarian troll, although it must require zero self respect to do that job. She's not even the worse. Some are off the charts batsh*t nuts.

If it was the inverse and we were gripped with mass cooling, she'd be saying 'it's just winter'. She's paid to be confrontational and edgy I suspect.

Can't get past the paywall, but from the top bit that does actually look pretty sensible. It's a miracle!

Steady fellas - I think she chats some sense, but things get complicated when she's on trans stuff.

I like Ambrose Evans Pritchard and Jeremy Warner on there (although I still vividly remember the time when Gordon on here took Ambrose apart - I defy you Gord!)

She might well be, maybe it's a broken clock situation but thought I'd play devil's advocate!

She did used to write for the Guardian, and incidentally went to Northgate Grammar School for Girls.

She is a single mother and has an interesting back story, not typical of most journalists. This from Wikipedia.

"She grew up in Ipswich and attended Northgate Grammar School for Girls. Moore ran away from home at 16 and moved out aged 17 to live in a bedsit.

After various jobs in Britain and overseas, including waitressing, shop work and door-to-door sales, she did a degree at Middlesex Polytechnic."

Yeah I think she's pretty left leaning and a weird one for the Telegraph to employ. She left the Guardian because of the trans stuff and an alleged fall-out with Owen Jones among others. They still have little Twitter tiffs from time to time.

I think you mean talk such....

Chat is two way, a conversation

It comes from WW1, when men sat around cleaning lice from their uniform.

Lice - chats. the action known as chatting, removing lice.
