Well the lunatics are well and truly in charge of the asylum.

I am talking about George Osborne's announcement to push for fast tracking of licences to fracking companies to frack in the UK.

We are facing the biggest challenges in human existence with climate change now becoming a reality that will threaten the life of people and animals on this planet and yet the government wants to continue the development of even more fossil fuels that will further increase CO2 levels in the atmosphere. Even the Pope has stood against this lunacy in the last week announcing that we need a “revolution” to combat climate change which is unequivocal now in terms of it happening and in the evidence behind this.

In December there will be a climate change conference to try to address this and yet this government it showing no commitment to this by trying to further the fracking industry. We should be looking at renewable energy as a revolution and not the lunacy of the fracking industry that pollutes the air around us and our water. Yes I think the lunatics are in charge of the asylum.
