It looks as if John Humphrys will be in trouble with 'Feedback' again



It looks, from another of his articles, as if poor John Humphrys might be on the receiving end of another Feedback slagging-off again soon:
But nothing last week better conveyed the desperation of the warmists to convince us that the world is hotter than ever than a remarkable item on Tuesday’s Today programme, when Lord Deben (aka John Gummer), bursting with self‑righteousness, broke the record for the largest number of absurd claims ever squeezed into a single three-minute interview: such as telling us that Bangladesh will soon be so intolerably hot that we shall see “170 million displaced people wandering the world, looking for somewhere to live”.  
So insistent was the noble lord that everything he was saying was “absolutely true” that John Humphrys eventually suggested that some people might think his wild assertions sounded “more like a religion than a science”. Gumboot hilariously replied that people had better believe him – because “even the Pope” was now agreeing with him.

  1. I'm learning to have a tiny, grudging respect for Humphrys. Sometimes. When I can forget some of his poor performances.
