Happy New Scare!

Daniel Hannan takes on the issue of the so-called ‘obesity epidemic’ while John Tierney predicts more spurious climate change alarm in 2008.
As the new year emerges and the Government tries to shake off the failures of the last few months like a bad hangover, we must remember: when politicians trumpet new problems which only they can solve, the problems probably aren’t as big as they are claiming. But if they are that big, they won’t be the ones to solve them. So don’t let them scare us this year. Our lives, as always, are in our own hands.
