Old Article, Newly Republished: This article was originally published by the New Reformer in October 2024, but that publication went offline recently – I only noticed when I looked it up for a re-read given the article’s current pertinence vis-a-vis energy policy and the ongoing Mili-Madness. There are one or two minor details that are of course wrong (the spectacular falling-out of Reform’s ‘Fantastic Five’ was not foreseen; also, at c. £3+ trillion, our cost estimates for this Net Zero Lunacy were on the optimistic side – subsequent policy decisions have put the nation on a trajectory for an even more unaffordable £5 trillion), but on matters of policy @EyesOnThePriz12 and I would not change a word of this. We are therefore republishing the article for posterity. Original publication date: 13 Oct 2024

Great day with great people in Brent. I want a London where your future is not decided by your skin colour, religion or postcode but by your hard work, talent and determination. And what unites us is not grievance politics, but pride in this country, pride in our freedoms, and pride in being British. London should be a city where your path in life is not decided for you at birth. A city where patriotic people from every community can rise, achieve and fulfil their potential through hard work and perseverance. Supporting controlled immigration and secure borders does not make you anti-immigrant. Millions of people came to Britain legally, contributed massively, and are proud to be British.

Is anyone still pretending Reform are against immigration?

They chickened out. Labour and the Tories pulled out of today’s LBC London hustings rather than face me in debate. What are they scared of? Londoners deserve answers Own your record and defend it. Debate me in front of Londoners, if you dare👇

@GBNEWS This is not bold. It is a very silly thing to do. The money could be better spent elsewhere on basic services (or policies that ensure energy abundance, for starters).

🚨UK Net Zero & energy subsidies have exploded to £585 BILLION 🚨 Our taxes funding unreliable renewables, backups, carbon capture & subsidies to use the expensive energy. A new update to the Subsidy Control Database exposes the scale of the madness. (1/11)

@Ed_Miliband "power we control"? Do you control the weather? You are ruining this country.

We’re facing the second fossil fuel shock in less than 5 years. Events far away are once again impacting families and businesses here at home. We can’t go on leaving our country so exposed. The solution lies in clean homegrown power we control. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Today was a day for Churchill's phrase to be trotted out: did our @10DowningStreet utter a 'terminological inexactitude'?

Owners of the Viking windfarm in Shetland are paid £10 million per year to turn off turbines during gale force winds - while locals living in its shadows are forced to pay some of Britain's highest energy bills. Some people are making a fortune out of Net Zero and it’s not the British public.

@WritesLb91284 I seem to be the only person in the UK who has attempted to cost Net Zero on an empirical basis. sites.google.com/view/the-lpf/h… But even my aggregate figure of ~£3.4 Trillion is a massive underestimate, because it assumes some semi-sane underlying strategy - not Miliband lunacy.

Ember, the people who came up with Miliband's promise to cut bills by £300 have been torturing the data to claim renewables saved money in March. Record CfD subsidies for March of £258m tell a different story. We're witnessing the dying embers of Net Zero propaganda (1/n)

The outlook is for subsidies to go on rising as the strike prices for some offshore wind farms like Burbo Bank have been indexed upwards to ~£221/MWh. AR3 & AR4 units are cheaper but offshore wind strike prices in AR6 & AR7 are higher than the current elevated ref prices (8/n)
