Excerpts:

Copenhagen’s city council in conjunction with Lord Mayor Ritt Bjerregaard sent postcards out to 160 Copenhagen hotels urging COP15 guests and delegates to ‘Be sustainable – don’t buy sex’.

“Dear hotel owner, we would like to urge you not to arrange contacts between hotel guests and prostitutes,” the approach to hotels says.Now, Copenhagen prostitutes are up in arms, saying that the council has no business meddling in their affairs. They have now offered free sex to anyone who can produce one of the offending postcards and their COP15 identity card, according to the Web site avisen.dk.

Discrimination

According to the report, the move has been organized by the Sex Workers Interest Group (SIO).

“This is sheer discrimination. Ritt Bjerregaard is abusing her position as Lord Mayor in using her power to prevent us carrying out our perfectly legal job.

Climate conference delegates told not to patronise Prostitutes?
Why not? What is so special about prostitutes? After all, the climate alarmists have been patronising the rest of us for years!

Have the various scientific unions set the going rate for warmist cohort studies?

Climategate: A collection of zipped up documents.
COP15: A collection of zipped up members of the AGW faith.

A poster here linked to a site with all the woes attributed to global warming – I can’t find it – if you can repost or send me the link that’d be really great.

These guys have had a free ride for soooo long I can´t see them refusing this offer…

Perhaps we should encourage these guys here… they might get first hand experience of what goes up must come done naturally… just like temperatures…

Well, several newsreaders have been mispronouncing CRU as “Climactic Research Unit”…

Since this thread seems to be about blowing and whistles — How does the whistleblower protection law in England? It can be a goldmine for the leaker here in the US.

Climategate Investigator Is Member Of Vehemently Pro-Man Made Global Warming Organization
A civil servant who is a member of one of the most vehemently pro man-made global warming advocacy organizations in Europe which also has direct ties to the IPCC has been handed the job of whitewashing the investigation into the University of East Anglia, while absurdly billing himself as impartial and unconnected to climate science.
There’s little doubt that Russell is an establishment insider who has been tasked with whitewashing the whole affair.

Well at least this is one AGW prediction that has come true and maybe a self-fullfilling prophesy. 😉
“Climate change has resulted in the increase of prostitution….”

Not surprised. After all, Phil Jones and the UEA-CRU crowd has been into doing tricks for years. And besides, they are experts at coming up with imaginative curve fitting.

this may be the first time the IPCC has ever tried to hide a ‘rise’ instead of a ‘decline’.

Free sex? CO2 rising… or, how is that thing called…rising up beyond sea level?

“How does the whistleblower protection law [work] in England?”
“Hacking” is definitely an illegal act though in this case one with a potential public-interest defence. If , as many suspect, the documents were “leaked”, that would probably be covered by the 1998 Public Interest Disclosure Act. See: http://www.pcaw.co.uk/index.htm
May I, an unrepentant though far from mainstream left-winger, add that Ian B’s analysis of “left” morality is insightful, informative and IMHO spot on.

The Lord Mayor somehow got her wires crossed on this one. Prostitution is legal in Copenhagen. Fraud is not legal in Copenhagen.
Shouldn’t the Lord Mayer instead warn those hotels to be on the lookout for certain charlatans posing as “climate scientists” ?
Shouldn’t the Lord Mayor issue a warning to the union that their working girls could contract a terminal case of “mendacity” from cavorting with some of those delegates?
