Over 100 Marxist UK economists think that massive subsidies to renewable energy power and massive taxes on hydrocarbon fuels has reduced the price of household energy bills so more should happen
The electoral battleground is being drawn in the UK between expensive and impractical “green” energy policies that meet the arbitrary and capricious UN sustainable development goals or, drum roll, COMMON SENSE that halves existing energy bills and food bills.
This battle ground is replicated in every country in the world, except China and India, who do not really give a rat’s ass about the “woke” UN agenda and a handbook that should be named “lessons for woke morons and sheep, 101”.
From here:
“The letter co-ordinated by the Economic Change Unit is signed by 108 economists including Mariana Mazzucato, a professor at University College London who has helped lead a global shift towards more interventionist economic policies.
Other signatories include Oxford economist Ha-Joon Chang, York professor and inequality researcher Kate Pickett, and Will Hutton, the head of the Academy of Social Sciences.”
First off, these economists have not done a days work in their lives or have had to suffer the energy poverty borne by the bottom half of income earning households. Look at their job descriptions. They have been gorging themselves at the taxpayers trough for their entire lives – living a life of privilege that they have not earned or merited.
Secondly, these “economists” are political activists who are card carrying members of the Cult of Moloch – their objective is to create poverty, misery and sickness. It is a damning sign that universities up and down the country have been infiltrated with these political extremists.
Listen to these whiny little chicken littles puke up the standard slogans of the Cult, that has been completely debunked by thousands of real scientists.
“They told Mr Sunak: “The drive for net zero has the potential to bring huge economic benefits for the UK, bringing good jobs and much needed investment that can lead to prosperity across the country.
“The delay you have announced threatens that investment, diminishes the prospect of the UK benefitting from the green transition, and undermines the country’s long-term economic future.”
I just know they were first in the queue to get injected up the wazoo with toxic chemical so they could virtue signal to their comrades in their safe spaces, where no hint of the real world is allowed to permeate.
What has their Cult achieved? We now have forests of ugly metal and plastic windmills and plantations of solar panels that are festering and rotting eyesores on and offshore. Plastic and metal that has destroyed thousands of square miles of flora and fauna , rendering it unusable for generations to come.
Instead of using these thousands of square miles of eyesores, fields of crops could have been planted, nature reserves created or herds of livestock raised that could ensure cheaper, higher quality food for all. Instead these cretins want expensive food, high energy costs and, no doubt, a fully injected population with mRNA gene modifiers.
Even if hydrocarbon usage (gas and oil are NOT fossils or fossil fuels!!!) should be replaced with ONLY electricity as an energy source, the battery technology does not yet exist to replace all vehicles and household gas supplies. The solution is to transition to nuclear over decades NOT “renewables” over just 5-7 years.
All “renewable” energy has been subsidised for decades with massive amounts of tax payer funds, whilst the hydrocarbons have been punitively taxed/regulated – and even then the price of electricity to households for mostly “renewable” electricity is three times the prove of hydrocarbon energy.. Both renewable and hydrocarbon energy supplied to households bear the doubling of the “standing charge” which almost ALL goes to renewables.
It is easy to spot the truth when these Cult members chirp, bleat and wine. Whatever they say, the opposite is true. In this case, abolishing ALL subsidies for “renewable” energy and high taxes plus onerous regulations on hydrocarbon energy, would create millions of jobs and reduce inflation by a lot – energy inflation is responsible for around three quarters of inflation over the last e years, with C19 measures largely responsible, directly and indirectly for the rest.

You can’t print energy but you can print Ponzi debt enslavement.
All you have to do is recognize the corrupt Marxist Central Banking currencies as not counterfeit.
After that, the gulag is built and the starvation awaits.

These imbecilic economists apparently cannot see that green energy in Germany and Britain is so expensive that people can no longer afford to heat their homes, and businesses are relocating elsewhere.
Previously posted in 2023:
“Net Zero” is already proved a total failure – a woke fantasy of unscientific idealists.
Over-investment in Wind Power generation in Britain and Germany led to an energy disaster there. Industries are leaving due to very-high energy costs and average people could not afford to heat their homes this winter. We predicted this green energy debacle in 2002 and in detail "to the year" in 2013 in my Open Letter to Baroness Verma, British Undersecretary of Climate and Energy.
“Rode and Fischbeck (2021), professors of Social & Decision Sciences and Engineering & Public Policy, collected 79 predictions of climate-caused apocalypse going back to the first Earth Day in 1970. With the passage of time, many of these forecasts have since expired; the dates have come and gone uneventfully. In fact, 48 (61%) of the predictions have already expired as of the end of 2020.”
For 60:40 predictions, the odds of being that wrong are 1 in 13 quintillion; for 70:30 predictions, the odds are 1 in 13 septillion.
It’s not just climate scientists being randomly mistaken – they knew they were not telling the truth.
So it is with the Climate Alarmists - they just make-up scary Climate stories that are 100% false, These prove untrue, but they don't care, The just fabricate another dozen false stories to stampede the sheep.
