The Minister for Climate Transition Will Protect Us From Weather
- Saturday, November 14, 2026
Wonderfull Josh, your cartoon sums up this buffoon laden quango perfectly !
Me thinks Josh well captures the odd phenomenon that the higher a people’s standard of living, the more likely certain people will complain. About something. Even more oddly – they complain over that with which they have no control <– e.g. Climate, and sometimes even weather.
…or the outcome of elections. Some idiot in the UK was actually talking about having a protest march when the Tories won in 2019!
A beautiful summer, the best in my 73 years. And now, some cooling rain! What’s not to like? Let’s just sit back and allow the climate to transition itself.
The Greens are inviting people ‘inspired’ by the French riots to protest in London next week. If anything kicks off, I hope the police arrest and charge any Greens concerned with inciting/encouraging riot.
Not so sure making the grid dependant on weather dependant energy production could protect you from the weather but instead make you a slave to it. I don’t think much thought went into that one.
In 1976, the UK appointed Denis Howell as ‘Minister for Drought’.
But due to the unexpected heavy rainfall shortly after his appointment, he became known as the “Minister for Floods” .
Then, during the harsh winter of 1978–1979, he was appointed Minister for Snow & eventually it all melted … See, that proves politicians can control the weather (in their own heads).
