Reference :- Internationally revered Prime Minister, Scott Morrison , has finally accepted that climate change is a thing .

Reference :-  But he has no plan to address the problem . 

Dear Mr Morrison, 

                                Thank heavens you have decided that the climate change issue is a real threat .   Not so much a threat to humanity , but a threat to your chances at the next election if you don't pretend to be concerned . Naturally the canny among us know you wouldn't give a rat's arse to protect the environment . That is God's domain .  But the great unwashed may vote you out in a few months if you don't fake concern . 

Of course , that will involve plenty of bragging about your emissions reduction plan .  Ken junior , the cheeky bugger , calls it   " the emperor's new emission's reduction plan . "  You may recall that in the clever fairy tale an emperor headed a parade naked , while the poor peasants were tricked into believing he was all garbed out in splendid attire .

Anyway Mr Morrison , I told Ken junior it was disrespectful to imagine you walking naked like that and his analogy was ridiculous .  You may be wearing the aforementioned imaginary " new  clothes " , but you are not at the head of the climate action parade .  In fact you are not in the climate action parade at all .  You simply don't have time for parades now that you are busy with all your plans . 

Not plans for emissions reduction , of course , but marketing plans for the looming election . Thankfully you can rely on lobbyists from the fossil fuel industry and the corporate media to convince everybody you are striving towards a 2050 net zero goal , which relieves you from that annoying distraction .  Of course , you may have to slip them a few quid in subsidies , but who needs to know about that ?  

Happy campaigning 

Your comrade , Ken .
