From The Australian:
In a series of statements yesterday aimed at the Flinders University Council and the Coalition, the Weatherill government warned Dr Lomborg that he was not welcome in the state as it would damage South Australia’s image among the climate change fraternity.
State Labor also warned Flinders University that its academics would be bought off to peddle an anti-climate change agenda, and likened federal funding for the proposed centre to tactics used by the tobacco lobby.
Federal Education Minister Christopher Pyne said the state’s position was “bizarre” and a “disgraceful intervention” in Flinders’ academic affairs.
Takes one to know one, Mr Pyne.
