It’s as if the raft of state sponsored terrorist attacks, the murder of WPC Yvonne Fletcher and the bombing of Pan Am 103 over Lockerbie never happened:
The London School of Economics, one of the top-ranking universities in Europe, on Monday (21 February) acknowledged it had received a gift of €1.78 million from the Gaddafi International Charity and Development Foundation, chaired by Saif al Islam, one of the Libyan dictator’s seven sons and a former graduate.
The university also admitted it had “delivered executive education programmes to Libyan officials”, but said it had now decided to sever all those links “in view of the highly distressing news” about hundreds of protesters killed by armed forces.
“The school intends to continue its work on democratisation in north Africa funded from other sources unrelated to the Libyan authorities,” it said in a statement published on its website.
Only now is the LSE severing links with the Libyan regime, as if the actions of the Gaddafi regime over the last 40 years haven’t given enough clues about its violent and repressive nature.
But then, what else could we expect from such a bastion of left wing radicalism that embraces climate alarmism’s chief media attack poodle Bob Ward as part of its extended team? No doubt as more people trawl over this obnoxiously pungent relationship between the Gaddafis and the LSE, the college will employ the same kind of diversionary tactics as Ward does when trying to smear someone who tells the inconvenient truth. Birds of a feather…
Pointless mediocrity, Bob Ward, indulges himself and bores everyone else with an scientifically illiterate rant
The world’s leading climate scientist, with over 200 peer reviewed papers to his name, gives a real and authentic analysis of climate science
Compare Lindzen’s expert analysis with the previous rant of vocal alarmist Bob Ward and you realise there is nothing to be alarmed about.
It is some concern that I recognise the less than lucid Mr. Ward from frequent guest appearances on this topic across certain broadcast media here, whilst Prof. Lindzen… not so much.
Maybe because one is a highly-qualified ‘Policy and Communications Director’ from a well-respected institution, and the other is merely a Professor of Meteorology at MIT.
And, possibly, some producers have some phone numbers easier to hand when a talking head is required. Or can’t access video feeds as easily as getting selected talking heads into the studio.
Ah right yes you can tell their a left leaning bunch by the fact it won’t give the money back now matter how much blood it’s cost!
Funny how their brand of wealth distribution is always in one way ! to them .
These people obviously subscribe to the view that the ends will always justify the means, no matter how much misery, pain and blood they have to wade other people through to get there.
