It’s an emergency, the Defence Industry wants to get some climate-money too. Send Fear and Brimstone!

Climate change is now a severe national security threat

A secret report by a Joint Intelligence committee in the UK claim climate change poses a severe threat to National Security. It’s one of the biggest risks facing Britain, the report is “understood” to say.  Get ready to be bowled over by the hyperbole:  It’s a “stark warning” say anonymous sources, and it’s a “hard hitting report” say the journalists who have not seen it.

You might wonder how a 0.14° degree rise per decade could creep up and threaten the SAS, apart from nasty cuts from a broken thermometer — but apparently, the food supply chains are at risk, and migration from the worst affected countries might cause “social disorder”. Which begs the question of why the UK doesn’t just stop disorderly migrants at the national moat?

This is the country, after all,  that once stopped German tanks and bombers but now is in danger of being overrun by unarmed men in inflatable dinghies.

It also seems quite incongruous — the experts have told us a million times that all migrants are good migrants, and yet here’s the Joint Intelligence team trying to raise funding by saying climate migrants might “impact UK security”. So which is it?

National security threatened by climate crisis, UK intelligence chiefs due to warn

The Guardian

Migration from countries worst affected by the climate and biodiversity crises will also have an impact on society and the economy. Some of the countries worst affected are likely to see governments fall and the rise of social disorder, leading to political instability that in turn will have an impact on the UK’s security.

This is pure polished vaporware English — the right keywords are all there but the words are carefully assembled so they don’t say anything that can embarrass the Minister on GB News.

And let’s not forgot, the ultimate threat here is that thanks to climate change the UK might end up being a bit more like Spain?

How bad can it be? Englishmen might stay home for a holiday?

The realm may experience an intolerable increase in sunshine, optimism, and outdoor dining?

As for food insecurity, the  UK grows more crops per hectare than nearly anywhere else in the world.

Unlike some nations, Britain can feed itself. Though if supply lines get cut, people may have to live without mangoes for a while.

This, below, is the awful impact of climate change on British farmers. Seven centuries of increased yield.

Bring in the Hellfire missiles…

 

The real reason for the climate  scare report — They want more money, more power and bigger titles

Defence experts have grown increasingly concerned at the lack of action, and some have called for climate finance to be considered part of national security spending.

Why are they halting a climate report?

Are they afraid the enemy might find out “about climate change” after they cleverly hid it inside 30 years of propaganda?

The hard-hitting report was to be published on Thursday at a landmark event in London. But the Guardian understands that the report, prepared by experts over many months, has been halted.

One source told the Guardian they feared it was being suppressed because the government was unwilling to face the issues raised. Overseas aid, formally known as official development assistance (ODA), which could help to stabilise countries most at risk from the climate crisis and avoid some of the impacts warned about, has been slashed.

Is this just the same cynical attention-seeking media trick used in Australia last month? Leak the story, “hide” the report, discuss the conspiracy, play the victim. Call it worrying and stark, thus generating media stories which the critics can’t criticize because they haven’t got the details. Then release it anyway. Revel in the attention! Repeat and recycle!

This same nation which once repelled the Luftwaffe, cracked the Enigma code, and supplied half the world with coal and steel, now stands imperiled by a mild change in the weather.

Imagine having too much sunshine — It’s just not British!
