Stand aside Justin Rowlatt. The BBC has a new climate doom-monger in chief. With his tall tales of sea levels rising "several metres or more", Mark Poynting means to keep the population fully alarmed, says Chris Morrison.

Ray Burke, the convicted Irish bribe taker and the Irish Government should be reported to the OECD.
Their anti-bribery unit should examine:

1) Abolition by Burke of the Irish Government’s 50% stake in anything found in Ireland by Shell.
2) Abolition of all royalties for Shell in Ireland.

The aims of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development that are being contravened by the Irish Government because of the Burke bribery are:

Not maintaining financial stability because of bribery.
Not contributing to sound economic expansion.
Not complying with international obligations
Not promoting the efficient use of economic resources.

The aims of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (hereinafter called the "Organisation") shall be to promote policies designed:

(a) to achieve the highest sustainable economic growth and employment and a rising standard of living in Member countries, while maintaining financial stability, and thus to contribute to the development of the world economy;

(b) to contribute to sound economic expansion in Member as well as non-member countries in the process of economic development; and

(c) to contribute to the expansion of world trade on a multilateral, non-discriminatory basis in accordance with international obligations.

Article 2
