"They should be allowed to participate in the WHO [World Health Organization], they should be allowed to participate at UNFCC [United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change]," he said.

Foreign Minister Penny Wong, while in Vanuatu to sign a security pact, described climate change as an “existential issue” about 'culture and land and sea, and safety and security”. “Now this is just indulgent, the Pacific Islands are not being swamped by rising oceans, they are not under threat from climate change, the island areas are actually increasing, according to the most recent studies,” Mr Kenny said. “And the climate alarmism is really just a shakedown for more aid, we all know that, even though diplomacy demands a more subtle approach. “Look, we expect climate overreach from Labor, but the problem is the uber woke (Simon) Birmingham – he chimes in, with climate rhetoric to match Labor’s.” It is an acceptance of the science. Just as most other political parties, which 96% of Australian voted for, also accept. It is only the conspiracy theorists like Sky News and their sheeple now don't accept the science. Sadly we know how dangerous conspiracy theorists can be. Honestly what would Lemons 🍋 Wong know about CC all she does is splash tax payers cash 💵 on the shifty Pacific Islanders !
