The Net Zero Riots

by Sallust
3 January 2025 5:00 PM

The Russian-British satirist and author Konstantin Kisin has popped up in a video chat with Youtuber and podcaster Chris Williamson with a damning verdict on Britain’s prospects while being led headlong into the crippling consequences of taxation and a Net Zero fantasy.

Kisin starts right out with the view that “at the moment” Britain is “f***ed”.

They discuss the mass exodus of all those who have created, are creating and will create wealth. “This Government has decided that the people who it needs to tax are the businesses basically, particularly the smaller-size businesses.”

Kisin describes the relentless increase of public, visible lawlessness, especially on the London Underground where staff and police stand by helplessly and haplessly as fare-dodging and crime goes untouched.

Williamson asks Kisin why the fabric of Britain is disintegrating:

I think it’s partly because the economy isn’t growing and so there’s not a lot of money to be put into policing. And when you think that Net Zero is the way to prosperity, i.e., driving up energy prices ‘cause you wanna feel green or whatever, you want to reduce Britain’s contribution to global climate change from 2% to 1%, that’s the great ambition, well then, you’re not going to have money. And when you don’t have money you can’t pay police officers, and when you don’t have police officers people engage in crime.

Williamson points out that it’s far worse outside London, that the “U.K. is a very poor country attached to a very rich city”. He describes how last summer’s riots weren’t really about immigration but the explosive effects of a growing impotent underclass who lash out in self-destructive violence in a tide of frustrated malevolence.

The result, as Kisin explains, is the destruction of any hope, the chance to improve one’s lot or the future for children.

If you have a society which has effectively said, “We’re going to do a green accounting trick. We’re going to take your jobs. We’re going to put them in India. We’re going to put them in China where they’re going to make the same steel, or the same cars, or whatever that you used to make. They’re going to do it dirtier – of course they are, it’s a much less developed country – and then we’re going to import that steel, and we’re going to import those cars back into the U.K. so that we can pretend that we’re green.” Well, you combine that with this person no longer having a job and our economy, and as I said we’re poorer now than we were in 2007, what did you expect?

Which takes the whole conversation back round to not chasing out job creators “by making business impossible”.

At the time of writing the video has been up for two days and already had nearly 1.5 million views.

Definitely worth viewing in full.
