Now He Tells Us?

After ignoring the problem for a decade, Howard warns Australians to expect more extreme weather:

On his last stop in St Helens, Mr Howard was asked if he accepted the scientists' predictions of more extreme weather events.

"Let me put it this way," he said. "I think the country should prepare for a continuation of what we are now experiencing ... I think the likelihood of this going on is very strong."

Bastard.
