Good morning and welcome to the Independent Republican Mike Graham right here on Talk Radio. It's day two of the world's biggest talking shop up in Glasgow where the global elites have gathered to show off how virtuous they all are,

0:21.1

clapping, chanting, exaggerating, modelling, predicting, and of course, not forgetting the reading

0:26.8

of the poetry. So far, we've had all the usual suspects preaching doom and gloom.

0:30.8

Sir David Attenborough, Professor Brian Cox, look at the sky. Greta Tunberg, how dare you?

Boris Johnson, we're all going to die. Archbishop Welby.
