With his zeal for impoverishing Britain and his imperviousness to inconvenient facts, Ed Miliband is Britain's most dangerous man, says Tilak Doshi. What makes fanatics like him tick?
Of course Net Zero requires telling people "how to live their lives", says Ben Pile. Keir Starmer's claim to the contrary is not to be credited. Changing how people live has always been at the heart of the green agenda.
Conservative leadership candidate Robert Jenrick has promised to repeal the Climate Change Act, the Equality Act and the Human Rights Act if he ever becomes Prime Minister.
The Climate Change Committee has appointed Emma Pinchbeck as its new CEO – a 37 year-old humanities graduate with no experience in the energy industry except lobbying. Can the calibre go any lower, asks Ben Pile.
In ruling that oil cannot be extracted without taking into account its impact on Net Zero, the U.K. Supreme Court has delivered yet another blow to the country's dying industries, says Ben Pile, not to mention parliamentary sovereignty.
The U.K.'s Net Zero policy is unachievable, disastrous and pointless – and that's the case even if you accept that CO2 emissions are warming the atmosphere, says Robin Guenier as he sets out the case against Net Zero.
Outgoing Chief Executive of the Climate Change Committee Chris Stark has accused Net Zero sceptics of waging a "culture war". Not really, says Ben Pile, but the way politicians are pushing it we could end up in civil war.
Former Prime Minister Liz Truss has written in the Telegraph to counter "ludicrous claims" that pursuing Net Zero will boost the economy and drive growth, calling it "patently not true and wishful thinking".
Opposition to Net Zero has belatedly been pushing through, but there is a long way to go. The MPs now standing up for realism could start by coming clean about the inner workings of the green blob, says Ben Pile.
Lord Stern's official climate review found that if the world did nothing it would make us just 5% poorer. As with Covid, the cure is clearly worse than the disease – even for those who accept the official 'science'.
