Having been caught using just one high wind year to persuade British parliamentarians to donkey-nod through an insane rush to Net Zero in 2019, interest is growing in some of the other stunts pulled by the Climate Change Committee (CCC) to promote the green collectivist agenda. In 2020, the CCC used a supposed finding of the Citizen Climate Assembly to promote to Parliament the idea – found in its Sixth Carbon Budget – that meat and dairy consumption should be cut by up to 40%. In fact only a third of the 108-strong assembly discussed the matter, and only 10 people expressed priority support for such severe reductions in the diet. The assembly was largely curated by the CCC, while £200,000 of funding for the event organiser was supplied by the European Climate Foundation, a green activist operation drawing heavy financial support from Extinction Rebellion funder Sir Christopher Hohn.
The CCC’s Sixth Carbon Budget identified the drastic legal pathways the U.K. Government must follow to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide during the years 2033 to 2037. Everything must go it seems in the unreal world of Net Zero, despite the fact that human activity – and survival – depends on exploiting the Earth’s natural resources. “The experience of the U.K. Climate Assembly shows that if people understand what is needed and why, if they have options and can be involved in the decision-making process, they will support the transition to Net Zero,” states the CCC.
The investigative journalist Ben Pile broke the meat story and wondered at the time how just 10 individuals can be used to somehow represent the wishes of 66 million people. Needless to say, poodle media took the bone with Roger Harrabin of the BBC writing that members thought politicians should encourage people to eat up to 40% less meat.
The assembly was set up by a number of Parliamentary committees to include 108 members of the public invited for six weekend sessions around the time of the first Covid lockdown in 2020. Three were held in Birmingham and three by Zoom. The Chief Executive of the CCC, Chris Stark, was one of the four main organisers and one of the four ‘Expert Leads’. The leads chose the speakers who addressed the gathering. What transpired, of course, was 12 days of relentless eco propagandising. Just 35 members of the Assembly discussed the ‘what we eat’ issue and, noted Pile, listened to one speaker who said the following:
We know that red and processed meat is associated with a number of health conditions so it’s linked to heart disease, it’s linked to strokes, it’s linked to particular types of cancer like bowel cancer, it is also linked to diabetes. Whereas on the other hand, eating fruit and vegetables is linked to prevention of all these conditions, so the more fruit and vegetables you eat, you are less likely to suffer from those diseases.
Alas, when it came to a vote on eight options, only 29% of the group, or 10 members, chose eating less meat as a priority. In fact it was the second least popular option.
Mike Thompson was the Chief Economist of the CCC and the lead author of its Sixth Carbon Budget. He put a slightly different spin on the ball:
The Climate Change Assembly said it would be happy with a 20-40% reduction in meat consumption. We’ve looked really carefully at the Climate Assembly recommendations and actually we were quite engaged in the process as well. If you take the time to guide people through this, to explain why the changes are needed, to explain the sorts of things that need to happen, they’re really supportive of action, and actually we were really surprised how supportive they were of late of the things we were thinking of already.
Quite what planet people like Thompson operate on is not clear, but a good case can be made that extreme eco activists like him, indeed anyone associated with the Climate Change Committee, should not be allowed anywhere near the machinery of public policy and Government. The agenda of Net Zero, with its capacity to wreak havoc on economic and social lifestyles, is far too important to be left to public sector extremists and lazy Parliamentarians content to follow a Net Zero narrated plan. The push to 100% Net Zero was rushed through with barely an hour’s debate in the House of Commons in 2019, with MPs relying on advice from the CCC that there would be just seven days a year when wind turbines produced less than 10% of their potential electricity output. This of course helped play down the enormous cost of storage required for intermittent wind and solar power. Net Zero Watch has noted not seven, but 30 such days in 2020, 33 in 2019 and 56 in 2018.
Always in the background, as we have reported in the Daily Sceptic on numerous occasions, is the seemingly unlimited supply of elite billionaire money to buy influence with politicians, media and academia. Although set up by Parliament and curated by the CCC, the billionaire money was still in evidence at the Climate Assembly with £200,000 given specifically to Involve, the event organiser. Step forward with the cash, the European Climate Foundation whose other good works include backing for the Labour Climate and Environment Forum and the Conservative Environment Network. This latter operation runs a caucus composed of around half the backbench MPs of the ruling Conservative party, dedicated, it is noted, to supporting Net Zero ‘champions’.

I can’t find any verification, but someone with more IT nouse may be able to or connections in Canada.
Would be great news if this could be verified.
the ever-reliable wiki seems to confirm it:
Thanks, thats great news.
Maybe Luc and Kate should try something similar.

How bleeding obvious:
phase out testing of asymptomatic patients and testing outside of medical offices or hospitals,
Bleeding obvious over a year ago.
Oh, Canada.
I just came here to ask the same question. There’s a post on reddit and a video on rumble.

It’s another one of those crackpot stories, where some chump imagines a virus must be isolated, else it does not exist.
If it can’t be isolated, how can anyone provide evidence of its existence?
Patriot Patrick King represented himself in court after being fined $1200 dollars for protesting against the Covid-Hoax, he slew the beast and emerged VICTORIOUS. He issued a subpoena to the Provincial Health Minister for proof that the so-called Covid-19 Virus exists, and they were forced to admit that they had no evidence whatsoever. The virus has never been isolated, and thus the government had no legal grounds to impose any of the punishing restrictions they have inflicted on society. Since this shocking confession came to light, the Province has since rescinded all Covid-Restrictions and now officially treats Covid-19 as nothing more than a mild flu! WE WON!
King has shown the template to be followed WORLDWIDE. This is what can happen when you are not re-presented by a BAR (British Accredited Registry) Lawyer who’s first obligation is to the Corrupted Courts and not their client.
THIS IS HUGE

Blimey!
It has however been spun by the authorities – no mention whatsoever of the real reason they have had to do this.
From the horse’s mouth

At approx 35.45 in she states that the vaccines provide better protection particularly against variants than recovering from the virus, so even if you’ve had the virus you still need to get vaccinated. Nobody follows up to question the evidence for this startling ‘fact’.
it’s a nu-fact i.e. complete and utter rubbish.
Recovering from COVID is 40 TIMES (that’s 4000% for government PR types) better than the jabby jabs at preventing re-infection.
She also states:
‘For example, since July 1, people who were not fully immunized made up
Now, a few questions concerning these ‘COVID deaths’ – how many were patients who had had 1 jab? And did they receive a positive test result after they were admitted to hospital with other conditions? And how old were these patients? Until the authorities can be transparent about such data, I remain sceptical.
scepticism without measure is madness.
Trying to vaccinate the entire planet’s population with an experimental drug for a virus that doesn’t kill 99.98% of people is madness.
Now, FO back to the 77th, you wart.
I wonder how they are going to continue using ’emergency authorisation’ vaccines now that they have admitted this is now an endemic virus?
The 26th cause of death on certs is still an emergency in the UK…
Despite the 25 greater threats to life not being an emergency apparently…
Not quite.
They’re phasing out restrictions.
And crediting the change to the vaccinations.
Basically like the UK.
Big pharma is claiming victory. And the precedent is set for the next pandemic, which will inevitably come because Bill Gates already said it would.
Public health has been changed forever.
The government has nationalised the people.
Maybe you should get used to it. China and US (probably some other countries too) will keep on developing their clandestine biowarfare programs because who’s gonna stop it (as you might have noticed, it has not even been a topic during this “pandemic”). Pharma will develop vaccines in defense. It’s a new military-industrial fueled business model, kinda like what we’ve had with nukes during the cold war. Your moaning about how you don’t want to take a “jab” is not going to change the global geopolitics.
Stories like this simply confirm as far as I am concerned, that a central organisation is controlling the governments.
Why on earth would a nominally civilised nation want to publicly shame its citizens for the ‘shockhorror’ of not quarantining, to prevent the spread of a disease that has an average IFR of 0.15% ?
Here we go again…
It doesn’t make sense.
I don’t think it’s that unusual for Japanese culture, heavy shame based society.
The only naming and shaming should be naming, shaming and imprisoning of corrupt politicians

Anyone else noticed the ‘I told you so’ stories of ‘ex-anti-vaxxers’ dying ‘of Covid’ on MSM? BBC had THREE such stories in the past week. Some recanted on their death beds, apparently.
Yeah, all heavily moderated, the DM had one today, a ‘healthy’ 40 something bodybuilder’s last words were “I wish I had the jab”. I’d be tempted to look on the crisis actors modelling agency page for a resemblance.
Sorry they’re dead, obviously, yet this is sheer propaganda (did their families consent to them becoming, in effect, Horst Wessel-like figures?). That means if you’re unvaccinated you are effectively a murderer…
Or, maybe, just suicidal?
Indeed, however the wider sense is that I have killed this man, by not getting vaccinated and/or supporting a dangerous cult. Quite the opposite!
Funny that their last words aren’t, ‘Why didn’t the government let me have ivermectin’!
It probably would have reacted to his steroids
Same in the Guardian – most shared article too. 42 year old man dies after refusing jab. I suppose, as an unvaccinated 45yr old man this propaganda campaign is aimed at scaring me. It’s all very predictable though.
These behavioural psychologists simply don’t get that, for some people, reason is more powerful than fear

“What is killing COVID patients is not the virus; it’s the cytokine storm.”
Sounds like Lockdown mirrors COVID, the over-response AKA lockdown is more harmful than the hobgoblin.
Return of the Kenpeitai coming next in Japan.
Australian states forming a Sicherheitsdienst to track down protesters.
What will it take for people to wake up?
I need to steer away from Social Media. It’s too depressing.
Yes, always remember that, should you explore Social Media, you must always wear a mask and keep your (Social) Distance.
Covid has been a godsend for the terminally self righteous. I’d be happy to keep my distance from all of them.
