The ruling Conservative Party in the UK is likely to lose the next election – scheduled for no later than 28 January 2025 – the incoming Labour Party plans to bankrupt the country with Net Zero lunacy

Miliband hits out at Sunak over net zero policy shift (msn.com)

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has come under fire from a bunch of privileged chicken littles for reversing a few extreme measures.

“On Wednesday, Mr Sunak pushed back the ban on new petrol and diesel cars, softened the plan to phase out gas boilers by 2035 and scrapped the requirement of energy efficiency upgrades to homes.”

The relaxation of these measures saves people in the UK a small part of the costs they are already bearing from the ludicrously stupid “New Zero” measures – such as massive subsidies for “green energy” and punitive taxes and controls for hydrocarbons – that have more than doubled energy bills in the last few years – and caused massive new “energy poverty” amongst those least able to afford such energy price increases.

Enter climate moron for Labour – Shadow Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero – Ed Miliband. The man that cratered support for the Labour Party when he was its leader between 2010 and 2015.

Check out these statements Miliband made to a Co-operative Party conference (the Co-op party and Labour are joined at the hip).

“I think Rishi Sunak simply sees the climate crisis as an obligation to be managed, not an opportunity to be seized, and we see it as an opportunity to be seized.”

Hey Ed! THERE IS NO CLIMATE CRISIS YOU NEUTERED PUFF ADDER

“When you think about the jobs we can generate in home insulation, when you think about the jobs you can generate in wind turbine manufacturing, but we haven’t done it as a country.”

There is a reason for this. Firstly, (almost) every home in the country ALREADY HAS  home insulation. Wind turbines are mostly imported from China, are an inefficient and offensive eyesore, destroying flora and fauna wherever they are planted like ugly plastic forests – and are only economic if there is a massive transfer of taxes to subsidize their “lose-lose” business model.

It gets worse.

“The only route to energy security in the modern world is through zero carbon power, homegrown zero carbon power. That is the way you get out of these problems. Otherwise, you’re held hostage by dictators, petrostates and others.”

Ugh. The most acceptable solution is nuclear. It is as plain as the nose on his face.

The UK had energy security BEFORE the pursuit of bogus/bogey “green energy” came along. You don’t mean “zero carbon” – you mean “zero carbon dioxide emissions”, it is staggering that politicians believe that the employment of child slave labour in Africa and South America in massive open cast mining of metal ores and rare earths – huge operations that permanently scar the planet -is fine – because it is “over there”.

Shutting down natural gas supplies will require the uprooting of thousands of miles of pipes – otherwise the infrastructure above the pipes will collapse. There is a massive cost to switch to batteries needing to be recharged with mains electricity – a huge increase in demand for renewables that simply cannot be met.

The problems being faced by brits are the problems caused by chicken little green morons like Miliband. The UK used to be a petrostate and still could be. It does not need petty dictators and “others” like Miliband to make people poorer and sicker.

Onwards!
