Government Has Just Declared War on Free Speech

The Government is using the excuse of 'climate change' to justify the largest taxpayer 'investment' in wind and solar farms in British history.
Bizarre and unrealistic, the National Grid's Future Energy Scenarios report is a wild jumble of impractical ideas and unfeasible technologies, says David Turver.
There's a reason that electricity costs twice as much in Britain as in the USA, says Dr. John Fernley. It's because of brainless plans like Ed Miliband's to power us with a sun that doesn't shine when we need it most.
Britain doesn't have enough land for all the solar panels that would be needed to power Labour's nutty Net Zero agenda, says Ben Pile. Truth is, you can't make everything electric and run it on sunshine.
Ed Miliband’s decision to give the Mallard Pass a 3,000-acre-solar farm is like forcing a baby to have tattoos for its own health, says Joanna Gray. Trouble is, too few these days care for the beauty of nature.
Ed Miliband has pushed through Britain's biggest solar farm on green land despite the objections of officials, prompting fears he is endangering the nation’s food security.
Ed Miliband is reportedly set to end new drilling in the North Sea and the cost of Net Zero is projected to run into the hundreds of billions. The scene is being set for the failures that could bring down the Government.
If Keir Starmer really intends to govern "unburdened by doctrine" why did he put a swivel-eyed climate zealot in charge of Britain's energy policy?
Ed Miliband has ordered an immediate ban on new drilling in the North Sea – overruling his own officials and risking triggering a wave of legal action.
Labour's Energy Secretary Ed Miliband wasted no time in ending the "ban" on onshore wind. But with unreliable wind power escalating in cost, this blind commitment to wind power could be Labour's undoing, says Ben Pile.
