I've just realised. This username is actually an automated troll bot.
Can't believe I've not twigged this sooner.
It works in a similar way to this:
User Posted Link
Complicated algorithms pick two relevant and controversial topics and present them in a sentence that is finely balanced and worded in such a way as to enrage certain bodies of people.
In this case Huhne & claiming there is no evidence of climate change.
What's happened though is that instead of moving across the internet auto-trolling away on diverse topics on a variety of fora, a glitch has caused it to focus on the wroth and fixate on topics guaranteed to get certain people's goats on here.
Hence everyone thinks it's a scummer. I admit that did seem the most plausible explanation for a while, but I started to doubt that even the most deranged individual would keep coming back for more, that realisation coupled with the above post just made it clear what's going on.
Amazing.
