Despite Britain’s countless problems that might need the urgent attention of the new Government, it has chosen to focus on climate and energy. The mad-eyed fanaticism of Ed Miliband has now yielded three new vehicles for the climate agenda: GB Energy, the National Wealth Fund, and Mission Control, a clean energy initiative. None of the detail about what these bodies will actually do, and how, has yet been fully explained to the public, but the latter agency is to be headed by former chief executive of the Climate Change Committee (CCC), Chris Stark, who only quit his role a few months ago. What this signifies is that despite the formation of new agencies, the Government is dangerously bereft of ideas that can reanimate the walking corpse of the Net Zero agenda.
As I pointed out in the Daily Sceptic a few months ago, the CCC is a troubled organisation. After the departure of its chair, John Selwyn Gummer, restyled as Lord Deben, the CCC has only an ‘interim chair’, Professor Piers Forster. And then Stark announced he was quitting to chair the Carbon Trust, leaving the CCC without its most senior operating person. “This Bill,” explained Ed Milliband’s older brother in 2007, referring to the Climate Change Bill in his capacity as Secretary of State for the Environment, “will constrain every future U.K. Government to ensure that its carbon emissions do not exceed the level of budgets that are agreed between a carbon committee, made up of independent people, and Government itself.”

For the sake of food security the EU (and this country) needs to have a policy of not closing farms. The policy should be specifically aimed at stopping food producing land going out of food production (ie not encouraging diversifying into solar ‘farming’ on fertile land. You want solar? Build it on barren land.).
Build it on barren land and fund it yourself, then let us see if you make a profit. —-if not then the technology isn’t any good.
Totally agree.
JUST START OIL —————Let us STOP them getting rid of the 21 million gas boilers. Let us REFUSE to pay the astronomical electricity prices on mass. We cannot all be sent to jail. ———If we sit here like a bunch of timid sheep, Eco Socialist governments who terrorise us with their phony climate change junk science and apocalyptic predictions will herd us into the coral and it is our bank accounts being fleeced just like the sheep get the wool stripped off them——–WAKE UP. ——There is no climate crisis. There is a Liberal Progressive crisis. There is a One World Government crisis. ——Drill Baby Drill. —Trump will soon set the tone.
The attacks on farms and farming may abate temporarily but we can be certain they will return because the depopulation agenda requires it. The intention is to control the food supply, firstly because it allows for the control of populations but secondly because there has to be a mass die-off. So they will try to starve us or manufacture wars to kill directly.
Europe’s farmers have to win this next series of battles in order to restore some authority around food. Governments cannot be allowed to dictate food supply because they will destroy it, deliberately.
The dial is being turned up a notch.
They can’t defeat us on this one. If you have the farmners and consumers in agreement you have essentially the entire population. There is no way they can achieve their agenda now short of complete destruction. They might look confident but that is just corporate spiel and next quarter’s profits. They really aren’t confident at all. Even the mighty British and American armies are subject to the same forces and leanings. We are about to enter into a position which will be a shock or spasm in terms of economics and geopolitics. It won’t be like the gradual decline of the Ottoman empire it will occur in the space of a few days.
We will all require “Staying Power”. ——–The elites might wait us out. I remember a fantastic film called Hombre with Paul Newman and Richard Boone. ——Newman was at the top of a hill with saddle bags full of Boones stolen money. He could not leave with the money because those in the little cabin at the top would have been gunned down. —-So Boone and his bandit mates simply tried to wait them out till they had no food or water left. ———This a fantastic moral tale. So will the Elites wait us out?
The French, as a nation, are the opposite of the British.
When they needed a backbone, the British had one and we showed them how to protect our way of life.
Now that we need a backbone, we find that it’s the French who have one and are showing us how to protect our way of life.
It is true you need to know if the spirit and backbone of your country is destroyed forever. I would say in the case of England then this is so and it is entrenched. How do you fight back as an Englishman? I think it will have to start with forging an alliance with people elsewhere. We still have plenty of good Englishmen.
