Here's the relevant quote you provided:
Does that show the other news reports were "wrong" when they cited the timeline? Uh, no. Actually, it confirms the timeline that was in the other news reports. And the "reduced warming" language is just being cute. There wasn't any statistically significant warming over that period. The Met Office doesn't dispute that.
The headline that Groggy keeps posting was wrong.
The headline is correct, in fact its your Exxon funded guru, Whitehouse, who is wrong. Again, to bring it down to the level of 5 year olds (maybe you can understand this).
Draw a squiggly line from the bottom left corner to the top right corner on a piece of paper.
Maybe it will look like this:

Oh, and look, if you take that little bit at the right and draw a line between two specific points, as Whitehouse and all the Exxon scammers do, you can pretend that temperature is going down.
The problem is it misses the full point of the graph, which is this:

Get it?
That's called cherry picking, picking two data points that make your fake case even though they are really in odds with the full findings.
So yes,
The current period of reduced warming is not unprecedented and 15 year long periods are not unusual. , but the full pattern of rise in temperature is clearly up, just in a squiggly line.
Are you smart enough to understand that?
I know, its very, very, technical for your little pea brain, but try and let it sink in for a minute or two before you go copying and pasting.
Look, here's what we know.
On the one hand, we have the scientific evidence -- evidence that has been accepted by people on the political left, the right, and in the centre.
On the other hand, we have erroneous headlines, bogus "consensus" numbers, and the usual angry name-calling.
My recommendation: Choose the scientific evidence.
If only you would follow your own advice.
Why not listen to the words of 97% of the people who know what they are talking about, instead of the 1% that are quacks funded by the oil companies?
When the tobacco companies pulled the exact same stunt decades ago, commissioning fake studies with hired 'experts' who turned out to be quacks, did you buy the smokes and think they were healthy?
Are you still smoking because 3 out of 5 tobacco funded doctors think its good for you?
