Spot on Nick. However far we go to combat climate change. it will never be enough for the green zealots. You're right about weather forecasts too, 48 hours is about their limit of accuracy. I have a habit of watching the BBC News at least twice a day but I am starting to think it's bad for me. It's certainly not good for anyone's mental health to be scared out of their wits every day by the latest doom-mongering. My favourite bit is when the main presenter turns to the health expert or the business expert, or whichever expert it is and says "Well, Tom, how worried should we be?"

No wonder there is a mental health crisis.

I think Morrissey got it right when he sang:

"Stop watching the news

Because the news contrives to frighten you

To make you feel small and alone

To make you feel that your mind isn't your own"
