Another day, another 'report' from the Green Blob, this time from the CBI, gaslighting us with the claim that the 'green economy' is booming. What, you feel cold and poor due to sky high energy prices? You must be mad!
Toby Blair's Institute for Global Change has published a report that apparently tells Ed Miliband his Net Zero plans are unrealistic. But look closer and you find the same Green Blob pushing the same agenda, says Ben Pile.
Ed Miliband has blamed high energy prices on Britain's "reliance on global fossil fuel markets". This is nonsense, says Ben Pile. It's Net Zero that makes Britain's gas cost four times more than America's.
Reform UK has taken aim at the Green Blob as it "puts the renewables industry on notice". Some have criticised its windfall tax proposal, but Ben Pile says it's smart politics as it will already be scaring away investors.
Greens get very worried about the risk of nuclear accidents. But have they considered that the economic devastation of Net Zero will cause far more deaths than were ever suffered by Ukraine after Chernobyl, asks Ben Pile.
Ben Pile savages the Government's climate policy, exposing how its manipulation of 'the Science' and apocalyptic scenarios mask a darker agenda.
Keir Starmer faces a backlash of Labour MPs against the approval of a new oilfield. Who are these MPs in revolt against wealth and industry, asks Ben Pile. When you scratch the surface you always find the same Green Blob.
Ben Pile brands the Government's 'growth agenda' as empty political theatre, with wooden actors stumbling through hollow lines, written by someone who has no clue what growth actually is.
It's welcome to see growth overcoming Net Zero considerations when it comes to the Labour Government's line on Heathrow expansion. But is it a false dawn for the demise of green ideology, asks Ben Pile.
The Social Market Foundation has carried out a survey on public attitudes to Net Zero and concluded that the "uninformed" and reluctant public are the problem. Why else would they say no to heat pumps?
