Hear hear! I consider GW to be what Hitchcock would call a 'MacGuffin'
- a diversionary tactic dressed up as the most important detail (not
that I'm one for conspiracy theories, but...) I do think that if there
wasn't so much GW propaganda about, more people would be more
concerned about the state of the country's balance sheet, especially
pensions, education and healthcare.

(I'm a cause-of-climate change sceptic, BTW. Clearly it's happening,
but what's the actual cause? (Nature, in my humble opinion) There's
far more real concerns to keep us occupied, but as is human nature we
tend to focus, or are made to focus, on the ones we can do least
about).

Anyway, to bring it back on to topic, I'm now going to Manchester city
centre. I'm going to drive to Cornbrook metrolink station, park there
and use the tram to get into the city - contributing to a decrease in
city centre congestions and exhaust emissions and enrich the local
economy with the financial support of the public transport system. I
just hope my car doesn't get ****ing vandalised in the car park again.
