It has been coming for about two decades at least.
Much of the Thatcher years and all of the Newlabour years have been based on fraud.
The complacency and greed within governments results in incompetent decision making and forward planning.The only way to hold onto control and power is through lies and fear.We must all be submissive or else.Take all our money through tax and inflation,control our every move with cctv,and install fear through lies and propoganda.
'Gerrymander' those who rely on help and benefits
for 'short term' votes.
This country is no longer 'earning' enough to keep us all comfortable into our old ages.The government knows this so the short term measure is to control us with the doomsday nonsense.Long enough to keep themselves cosy.I dont know what happens after that ?

I have just filed a complaint to the ASA. Let's see what happens.

Whether we accept Global Warming as a fact or a fiction,our unprecedented reliance on fossil fuels has to be changed,because one thing we can all agree on is they ain't gonna last forever.The whole debate over whether Global Warming is scientific fact or something akin to the perpetual war of Orwells 1984 or indeed The War On Terror is redundant.The debate should be about how we go about reducing our addiction to what is an unsustainable energy source,irrespective of whether or not it is damaging the environment,and,possibly leading us down the road to further global unrest as its scarcity provokes panic and fear amongst those most addicted as they seek out their next hit of blessed crude.I am not fully swayed either way over global warming but I can not argue a case for sticking my head in the sand and passing on a world to my grandchildren that is energy bankrupt when with a little forethought and courage we could start to meet the demands on our planet for energy in better ways than simply setting fire to bits we dig up.

No one is talking about "sticking our head in the sand", but there is a gulf of difference between, on the one hand, a rational debate about the climate, our future energy sources (and the encouragement of research & development in new greener technology through enterprise) and, on the other, being lied to, fed propaganda, losing our freedom, and possibly having our whole way of life in the west destroyed on the altar of bogus science...and all for politics, not the improvment of our environment.

The amount of money being poured into this scam could, if used justly, provide clean water and food to those who need them, protect rainforests and, through tax breaks, inspire the development of new technology for a cleaner and greener world.

The crux of the issue is that I am totally opposed to government propaganda.     

BTW, there's plenty of oil around for several decades, if not more.

....that is the crucial point Nick and if anyone was able to catch the full interview with Joan Ruddock on BBC 24 this morning it would be plain to see that this administration is now being quite open about it. 

Can't get through to the adults so we'll have a go at the children instead
