But What About the Husky Hug?

Well, here's a thing: certain uncharitable and backsliding persons have criticised the greenest government ever for failing to take effective action in ten different areas of environment policy. Because of the respect accorded to the relevant ministers' ability to process information, the Environmental Audit Committee has adopted a traffic-light colour coding, with green for satisfactory progress, amber for standing still and red for going backwards. Surprisingly enough, out of the ten ratings the greenest government ever received only seven amber and only three red; more surprisingly still, one of the latter was for flood prevention, even after Britain's Head Boy toddled up and down Surrey babbling that money was no object. Attempting to dredge virtue from necessity, a spokesbeing blathered that the coalition had spent more on floods than the previous administration, without troubling to state how many workers the previous administration sacked from the Environment Agency, or how many climate change deniers it appointed to head the Department of the Environment in order that money might not be an object.
