The global warming theory is taking  quite a hit  in the UK after Christmas,  with snow and ice and wind.   The Alps  aren’t faring  any better.

Part of that sounds oddly familiar….

UPDATE:  More Cornerites weigh in here and  here.

UPDATE:  From across the pond,  Damian Thompson  on Clegg,  and Norman Tebbit on  his cleverness,  and the Telegraph’s bleak editorial  on British democracy.

Tea Party to UK…

leave a comment »

The Tea Party movement is headed to England.   Daniel Hannan has the news  here.

I can guarantee you that most other coverage from abroad will be far less kind,  but I’m curious as to whether the European press will mimic American MSM and try to ignore the people’s revolt.   Any guesses?
