This is an extract from the Hilary Benn webchat at the Official site of the Prime Minister’s Office, I came across this gem question from a James Goff…..pity James was unable to go back and ask Hilary Benn about an obligation to use science instead of politics when it comes to AGW. Thank you James, if this is a regular webchat then maybe some Climate Realists should take part next time.

James Goff: Will you admit that the anthropogenic global warming theory is a fraudulent scam to make money and impose new laws? Climategate, Glaciergate, Africagate, Amazongate? What’s next, Defragate? The so-called science is flawed and does not stand up to scrutiny, as demonstrated time and time again. If you sincerely believe in this, then have a televised debate with Lord Monckton, Christopher Booker, Richard North or James Delingpole, I’m sure all would happily oblige.
Hilary replies: Crumbs James. I disagree. I am not a scientist but I have read what the consensus of scientific opinion is, and in the light of what they say and of the evidence it seems to me that we have an obligation to act.
