Kano, do you still wish to know....?
... what will happen to Tim Flannery? It appears that the people of Australia have answered this question for you. You may read it here: http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2013/09/24/267063...
There is no need for you to respond to this. This is just to answer the question Kano asked the other day concerning where will Tim Flannery go now. According to the citizens of Australia, nowhere. How does this change the science, in any way, concerning the AGWT? It doesn't. Just like your pointless questions concerning this matter.

You have never shown me any indication that you have any interests in the science concerning the AGWT itself. As with your response here, you only wish to complain. When it comes to the science itself you merely complain about that which you cannot explain through the use of science itself, whenever it challenges your ideologies. THAT is BIAS!
Since you brought up Exxon/Mobil, did you know that Exxon/Mobil has a person involved in the review process of the IPCC reports? His name is Haroon Kheshgi - (see page 78 of this PDF file): http://www.ipcc.ch/meetings/session32/doc07_p32_re... - Does this now alter your opinion of the IPCC reports?
Oh, and no. It would not bother me in the least if Exxon/Mobil funded Tim Flannery. Just as long as he supports any findings through the use of science. Ask the Koch brothers how fond they were of their partial funding of the BEST (Berkley Earth Surface Temperature) study? Since Richard Muller headed this study and was a long time skep

Kano's question was concerned with where Tim Flannery would go since the newly elected politician decided to fire him and all of his staff. Not for any wrong doings but because Tim did not fit in with the ideology of the newly elected politician. You may start your own question as to if Tim Flannery is a moron. Should you do so, I may actually agree with you. But that was not the reason for his and his staff's firing was it? At least Kano gave an honest response to this. Perhaps you would like to try to so as well some day?

I appreciate the information you bring to this discussion. I much prefer to have information on this from someone that actually lives there. Which also confuses me somewhat as to why Kano would have ever asked his question concerning Tim Flannery in the first place. He does not live there. He does not pay taxes there. What concern should it be of his as to what Australians decide to do on this matter? ...I think we know. He is not driven to inquire or respond based on the science itself. He is driven only by his emotions and his own sense of self worth above everyone, literally EVERYONE, else on this planet. This Includes those who are and who will become his own descendents and their fate with facing a warming climate.

Well it is good, instead of the Australian tax payers forking out good money for B.S. it is now down to the greenies to foot the bill.

Don't you see the bias in that article?
It said:
<<<Last week, Australia’s new prime minister Tony Abbot eliminated the country’s Climate Commission, the independent but government-funded panel of experts that studied the effects climate change is having on the country. But the Australian people aren’t standing for that.>>
Independent but government funded? So if it was independent and Exxon Mobil funded that would somehow be OK right?
Flannery can do whatever he wants. He just won't get government funding at least for now. It is a nice ploy to pretend to have as much prestige as before but in fact it is just a ploy for now. It isn't the people that want him back but I don't blame him for pretending it is. Time will tell if he can generate any significant public (not government) support.

Him shows his usual ignorance, Australia's political system is based on the British system, there is a solid history of government funded but independent organisations, the BBC for instance or here in Australia the ABC, both have a long history of reporting regardless of who is in power.
As for flannels he is a scientists who could work where he wanted, he has announced he will relaunch the closed body as a publicly funded body.
It is telling that the newly elected government went to the polls on a platform of believing in AGW but within a week of gain office they preceded to shut down several groups that provide information to the public and funding to alternative energy groups.
Although they seem to have not thought this through as the second body they tried to shut down is in fact protected by legalisation, they can't simply shut it down they have to get a motion to shut it down through both our Houses of Parliament, they didn't win a majority in the second house so it is still possible they will not be able to do this.
Given the goofs and back peddles on campaign promises they have made in the just their first week in office I can't see them being in for a second term, a popular phase in the press here is they really didn't win, the labor party lost, due to their own internal infighting, This is reflected in the lower house where there is an odd mix of independents, voted in because many have lost interest in the two major parties.

Flannery is a total moron known for his ridiculous comments which even exaggerate the ipcc claims by several thousand percent. Why any one would take notice of this anti human nut job who tells extreme anti science lies to promote his political dogma is one of this world's great mysteries.
Edit I was being honest. Flannery is the Australian version of Gore except he's so far gone he even makes Gore look bright. I read your article and it's a political propaganda piece with carefully selected comments not representative of the vast majority of Australian people's views. I am pleased for you tho that at least you recognise him as a moron, unlike some others on here [naming no names] who actually agree with this loons predictions.

Maybe he can get some funding from some businesses who want to market 'green' technology, but this type of funding is going to be hard to find as the current government isn't inclined to throw public money at this type of venture.

I knew Flannery only as an author, but I am far from Oz, and of course Some1 has2b the activist leader to defend science against the lies of Big Coal, Big Oil and their crooked and bought, or willfully ignorant enabler, or both, politicians.
