Fun with hypocrisy #1 in an occaisional series

Tom Harris has, gamely, made a post about the sinister Caroline Lucas and her tenuous connection with science or reality. Sadly, he didn’t mention her desired population of the UK which is substantially lower than at present, nor how she intended to reduce the number of people living in the UK. I’m quite sure that it’s not gas chambers – murder on the environment! – but I know that I intend to ask her that question while she grovels for votes in the nearby Brighton Pavillion constituency.

Anyway, I was compelled to comment on the apparent hypocrisy of attacking Lucas for slagging off anyone who deviates from her green faith as ‘deniers’ but not remarking on the fact that dear old Ed Milliband does exactly the same:

“The public are not as thick or as gullible as Lucas would have us believe – they’re prepared to be convinced by fact and reason, not by scare stories and slander.”

Have you mentioned this to Ed Milliband who casts any sceptic as a ‘flat earther’ or a ‘denier’? Just wondering…
