Maybe this will become more common in the UK

Due to Britain being heated by the gulf stream, maybe this is the way Britain could permanently look in 20 or more years time?

If it's heated by the gulf stream how would that happen? And no I don't see this happening at all - it will get colder in winter & hotter in summer.

Doubt it, as Robbie has said, it will be hotter in the summer and colder in the winter

Britain is generally always warmer than the rest of europe due to the gulf stream. If the ice caps melt then the gulf stream would die due to the freshwater mixing with the saltwater in the Atlantic. If the gulf stream were to stop Britain would be in an Ice Age.

The globe has actually cooled over the last 10-15 years which renders the idea of global 'warming' laughable, even the political machine the MetOffice has backed down recently on it. The crooks like Al Gore have been sussed and real science, the science of scepticism is returning. The video below has some quick fire facts and lists sources, there's nothing to worry about;- and even if the predictions from the likes of the UN were true, there's a video where Monckton debunks this as to cancel out even a farenheit of warming we'd have to shut down the entire global economy for 30+ years to stop one farenheit of warming.

Check out Lord Monckton and Professor Richard Lindzen compared to the likes of Al Gore and Maurice Strong.

Climate change does not equal global warming.

No it doesnt anymore as they changed the term from 'global warming' to 'climate change' so it can mean anything now. If it's a heatwave its climate change. If its a hurricane its climate change. If its freezing cold its climate change. In Roman Britannia we used to grow grapes as far up north as the border with Scotland, and now we can't. The climate has been, and has always been down to mother nature and will change long after we've gone.

If C02 causes warming then the globe should be warming, however it is not - its actually cooling at the moment.

I am not in UK , sniff

Short, intermittent periods of cooling during long periods of warming mean nothing

So what makes the period of warming down to mankind? Why is it any different to any other period of warming, long before we had cars, factories and so forth. The fact is that it isn't any difference. And again I refer back to the Monckton with one question he often asks which is; what is the ideal temperature for the earth? - that one question that shows just how ridiculous this whole bandwagon is, because the Earth doesn't have a set/ideal temperature, never has done and never will do.

If anything with the rapid growth of China (again, C02) over the past decade, the temperature according to your logic should be rapidly increasing - but its not, its doing the complete opposite of what pro-global warming logic states what should happen.
