Dr.Vicky Pope was and is still (somehow) head of the climate predictions programme at the Hadley Centre.
Here are her predictions, made in 2007.

"By 2014 we're predicting it will be 0.3 degrees warmer than 2004, and just to put that into context the warming over the past century and a half has only been 0.7 degrees, globally, there have been bigger changes locally but globally the warming is 0.7 degrees. So 0.3 degrees over the next ten years is pretty significant. And half the years after 2009 are predicted to be hotter than 1998 which was the previous record. So these are very strong statements about what will happen over the next ten years, so again I think this illustrates we can already see signs of climate change but over the next ten years we are expecting to see quite significant changes occurring." (Massive FAIL)

This 'state-of-the-art' estimate, and advice to government, could not have been more wrong; even using the alarmist's favorite record; HadCRUT4, which replaced the 'undesirable' HadCRUT3. (HadCRUT3 was falling far too much in temperature; so it was canned).
The Met Office has just quietly released the global temperature for 2013; http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/hadobs/hadcrut4/data/current/time_series/HadCRUT.4.2.0.0.annual_ns_avg.txt
The HadCRUT4 anomaly was 0.486c. So the global temperature standstill -- now at 17 years -- continues.

2004 - 2014 prediction +0.30c.
Reality; +0.04c. (750% exaggerated warming)
Ice sheet prediction using 'Flat Earth ideas' = FAIL. (Global sea ice is growing, and is the highest for 15 years)
She predicted Greenland will melt in 3,000 years = FAIL! (Yeah, I can't sleep because of that one!)
Amazon Rainforest Loss = FAIL.(Amazon is growing & greening, not disappearing)
ALL the MET Predictions = TOTAL & MASSIVE FAIL.
Why wasn't this woman SACKED?? The UK government are setting policy on this so-called 'quality science'; and its costing YOU plenty.
