@chatswithem So we can be dependent on foreign fossil fuels and price spikes?
No thanks.

Stop netzero now

Norway collected £50bn from North Sea oil and gas last year. We collected £4.4bn, having taxed our own producers into closure in pursuit of a #netzero fantasy.

@Markone957795 @Artemisfornow Even if temperatures aren't really increasing at a faster rate than at any time excluding cataclysmic environmental events and the climate isn't warming during a period in which it should be cooling, why wouldn't you want less pollution?

Mad Ed has decided against drilling our own fields, regardless of the facts. Instead his plan is to double down on insecure renewables.
This includes faster roll out of solar & wind on public land …, AND an extra tax on energy generators. (Ye all you businesses, farmers and preppers, how dare you have energy backup)
And soon Mad Ed may be Prime Minister. Not even joking 🤡

@A_saxonsage @Artemisfornow The UK hasn't fed itself in 200 years.
Triple the amount of land is buried under bitumen for car parks than will be covered by solar farms.
When the fuck have you ever complained about parking your sloth mobile on prime farm land? Never.
English
@A_saxonsage @Artemisfornow You've not even read the national energy strategy, have you?
They are ten moves ahead of you. You're still worrying about intermittency, a 2010 problem.
To drain the UK of fossil fuels all you need is a naval blockade. Fossil fuels deliver us zero energy security.
English
@Anoyouknow @Artemisfornow What's common sense about relying on foreign fossil fuel imports over which you have zero control or influence on price?
What's common sense of covering almost all the external costs of those fossil fuels with your taxes?
English
@Weknowwhatyour2 @Artemisfornow You burn fuels, make your streets stink, poison the air your children breathe, force us to swallow high energy prices ...
And then have the cheek to ask for a tax holiday so you can keep driving.
English
@Artemisfornow This malignant regime has to go and soon if we are not to collapse completely as a civilised society. Perhaps that really is the plan?
English
@jeffries_p63117 @Artemisfornow You literally want to destroy those fields.
How is that not rotten?
English
@Artemisfornow That's the WEF globalists for you, Bernie. Everything they touch turns rotten.
English
@WhiteHartGain @Artemisfornow @JWalton12267995 Oh, yeah? Why?
How is drilling your own fields and fucking up the environment going to help?

@Artemisfornow @JWalton12267995 Some of these people should be behind bars (and I don't mean the pubs they're closing).

@BenGrahamUK The energy crisis is due to fossil fuels.
He's trying to move us off fossil fuels.
It seems very sensible.

Why does Ed Miliband keep pushing a climate “crisis” narrative when UK households are facing an energy crisis right now?
We were warned decades ago that parts of the world would already be underwater, such as Bangladesh. That hasn’t materialised as predicted.
Meanwhile, Britain has some of the highest energy costs in Europe, driven by a mix of policy choices, reliance on intermittent renewables, and dependence on imported energy.
The priority should be clear: affordable, reliable energy for British households.

London! @Ed_Miliband has a message for you 👀

@TomEast787 @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Fossil fuels need tax breaks, the taxpayer to cover the cost of the clean up post production, the taxpayer to cover the environmental costs, the taxpayer to cover the health costs, the taxpayer to bail out consumers when prices get too high & the FF coys report record profits.
English
@entitlement4all @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Windmills have to be subsidised throughout their 10-15 year life span, cannot be recycled when they’re finished & cost a fortune to maintain, especially offshore. The inconvenient truth is they cost way more environmentally & economically than we are being told.

@StreakyAgain @SunTzu544b @jonburkeUK And they are delivering much more capacity than that via renewables.
They are doing that now. They are accelerating that roll out.
Your 150 reactors will deliver just 10% of Chinese capacity. That's 200GW by 2035. By 2035 they'll have 3,600 GW of solar and wind.
English
@entitlement4all @SunTzu544b @jonburkeUK They're building 150-200 new reactors within the next 10 years. You don't do that if wind and solar is winning, you do it if wind and solar have disastrous consequences.

Britain’s clean, secure energy success story is being noticed across the world! 🇬🇧⚡️♻️
For the first time in decades, we’re a leader not a follower, yet all Farage, Badenoch, the Daily Telegraph, & the rest of Britain’s right wingers do is talk the country down.

In England geht der Ausbau der erneuerbaren Energie so schnell voran, dass im Sommer das Laden der Autos zeitweise fast kostenlos wäre. Welche Gründe kann es geben, dass wir, wie sonst nur Trump in den USA, die Energiewende abbremsen? focus.de/earth/briten-r…

@TomEast787 @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Windmills offset their environmental impact in less than 2 years. Gas and oil never will.
We are using and extracting gas and oil. It remains part of the strategic energy plan through to 2050.
You've already spanked your gas and oil wealth away. All those tax cuts you "earned".
English
@entitlement4all @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband You mean the same rigorous environmental impact assessments that were done for on/offshore wind farms & solar?
We need gas & oil. We have gas & oil. We can use it to create an economy that can transition to cleaner energy as Norway has.
Instead we have the worst of both worlds.
English
@Budgie0624 @KathyConWom @Lynn06783085 @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Untapped gas reserves are about 465bn bcm.
The UK uses about 80bn bcm annually.
You do the maths.
English
@entitlement4all @KathyConWom @Lynn06783085 @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Britain has plenty of oil and gas to exploit. The very fact that it is suggested not is a major lie / deceit / untruth / fudge / wrong.
English
@TomEast787 @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband The tax rate is the same as Norway's.
What's ridiculous about assessing the environmental impact of an activity?
What do you think more extraction will achieve?
English
@entitlement4all @KathyConWom @Keir_Starmer @Ed_Miliband Extraction costs are high because the industry is hamstrung by the government imposing ridiculous restrictions & prohibitive taxes. We don’t need tin, we need oil & gas. It is there for the taking & would be cost effective if the government had the will to get it.

@DaveSidwel71790 @SeddSezz Why would they do that?
It has majority support.

@SeddSezz Opposition should go to the the EU and tell them this deal is undemocratic and will have a 2.5 year time limit. Liebour sneaked around Europe in opposition hanging there like a bad smell..

🚨Starmer pushes forward with EU single market alignment
Despite having no mandate, he wants to write the Brexit deal to make Britain align with the EU’s Single Market for goods.
Any agreement would force British manufacturers to follow hundreds of rules set in Brussels, without a single say on how those rules are shaped…
This is a corrupt, useless, duplicitous government wreaking serious havoc.
This is an tyrant spitting in the face of democracy and the British people.
English
@jackiegmsgoode @SeddSezz @DebWisteria The British people want this.
The question is, why are you working against us?
English
@SeddSezz @DebWisteria When are people going to realise they aren’t working for us anymore
If indeed they ever did
English
@SeddSezz "Any agreement would force British manufacturers to follow hundreds of rules set in Brussels, without a single say on how those rules are shaped…"
Brexiteers were told this was inevitable.
They voted for it.
They own it
English
True. The Left only has intentions, which are just illusions to make you believe in a faked climate crisis. They and their green-energy cabal gain power and riches, while the public loses freedoms and earnings. This is called communism.

Nice sunny day in Bavaria. Another day when all these wind turbines stand perfectly still， as expensive land decorations without generating a single watt of electricity. I saw more than 50 wind turbines today while driving and hiking through the landscape. Not a single one of them was turning. I used to support the so called "renewables". But having eyes to observe and a brain to think make me doubt the renewable maximumist narrative. Southern Germany is simply not suitable to build more wind turbines， because it is just not windy enough. No amount of government mandate or subsidies can change that. Green's 100% renewable fantasy is an expensive war against nature.
