The latest international talk-fest on climate change finishes today, and the exciting news is there may be a deal for discussions about a roadmap! (Just like the Bali roadmap that lead to the stunning success that was the Copenhagen conference of 2009, perhaps?)
We will be reporting on the conference, and seeking the opinions of various Manchester academics and policy-makers, but while you are waiting for that, you can waste time by coming up with captions for this picture of UK climate minister Chris Huhne (Lib Dem) and members of the UK Youth Climate Coalition. [UKYCC is the same outfit who in November cancelled their conference in Salford at the last minute (poor ticket sales, we’re told).]
First prize- a free subscription to the electronic format MCFly.
A trio of mediocre suggestions to get you warmed up-
“I wonder what movies are showing on the flight back?”
“Kevin Pietersen is actually past his prime, in my opinion.”
“Remember the deal for this photo-op, guys – vote Lib Dem at May’s council elections. It will double our support.”


I’ll have my photograph taken with anyone for a packet of KP nuts.
