Its a self correcting process. The data if shown to be faked will be repudiated and new conclusions will be reached if need be. Regardless the UK data does not contradict the other data, earlier spring migration in many species, the increase in the northern range limits for many species, the arctic sea ice melt, the 10 year mma data etc. All these other indicators show increases in global temperature. let me put it this way, if you're on a road and see 5 one way street signs all pointing the same way. If one of these signs is broken, do you ignore the remaining four?
