Uh-huh.

That requires thought.

So, I mean, there is a slightly topical one.

I mean, this is part of the great discourse between people in the United States and Europe, and somehow, by extension, that includes us, because we are in the middle of a heat wave, supposedly.

It's coming back.

And it's just emerged.

Everybody's realized that we don't have a lot of air conditioning in the UK.

Now, there are lots of reasons for that, very good reasons why historically we don't have that.

Cold country.

Yeah.

We are being told now that as everything warms up, that air conditioning is not in fact the solution, that it's not a good thing, that in fact it contributes to the climate crisis.

And my theory is that this is a very deliberate line that's being spun.

And it's purely so that we all get more hot and therefore more apocalyptic and are more prepared to buy into the doomsday scenario.

If we're not allowed the air con, we can't be cooled down.

So what are we going to do?

We're going to get a lot more hot and bothered.

And then when the lunatics turn around and go, oh, we're going to have to turn off the electricity.

We're going to have to do everything.

Eventually, we'll all get to a point where we'll go, just do anything.

Just make it stop.
