  1. This is like the 1958 to 1988 doomsayers predicting an ice age. Now the weather broadcaster's who hardly ever get the day to day weather forecast accurate are supporting this load of tosh.we have the cleanest air on the planet and one of the most populated. We are surrounded 52 seas an ocean and the channel.?!? Go figure

  2. We are being lied to everywhere. Fed total BS by pen pushing bureaucrats. If things are so desperate why have I just seen South African plums wrapped in plastic in our supermarket.

  3. If Britain was concreted over tomorrow, what effect would it have on the planet ? NOne. Remember, that for every Fossil Fuels Power Station the LIBERAL WEF Government closees down, China and India opens 6 or 7. We are ruled by total IDIOTS.

  4. So when we are all sitting in our unlit homes in the middle of winter huddled around a rechargeable lamp for warmth AND it has not made the slightest bit of difference to the environment what other liberties will they attack. Net Zero is toxic.

  5. Are they bloody joking? The last fifty years we've seen parliament decimate the coal and manufacturing industries, sell off our infrastructure and machinery abroad. Joe public has seen this coming for years, but not our educated parliamentarian, oh no, they are just so far up their own arseholes that they think our economy can benefit by importing five million religious extremists. Parliament is not only useless but also grossly negligent. We'd be better off sacking parliament and begging, yes begging to ask Mr Putin to lend us a real leader to take the reigns of the UK. Whatever the party they are all tossers. 😮

  6. I wonder how many stickyfingered MPs have vested interests in the renewables, the most likely reason to push the agenda. Nuclear will achieve net zero but would take to 2035 if its implemented now.

  7. The installed capacity of onshore and offshore wind (27GW), is about 43% of the UK total, generating capability. In the year ending Jun 23, they actually delivered just 24% of UK demand. Last year, electricity cost, went up about 19%. Talk about less is more!

  8. No such thing as Net Zero! It’s just a con, we’re all carbon based beings, to have true Net Zero, we wouldn’t be allowed to exist, yet this Government blindly increases our Carbon Footprint by allowing unfettered immigration across our borders!!

  9. 'Investing' in unreliables means entirely the opposite of what is claimed. Fewer jobs, higher prices, standards of living dropping like a rock. Like what has happened already.

  10. The role of the government is to do what their voters elected you for, the role of the government is not to screw over everyone, give away our money, waste taxes, open borders, and cash in believing they are the owners of the country and it's theirs to sell to their buddies dirt cheap.

  11. Both Labour and Conservative and especially Labour are utter fools , totally irresponsible, basing this absurd and reckless net zero drive on a lie. There is no catastophic climate change about to happen now, in 2030 or 2035 and beyond. CO2 levels in the atmosphere of the planet are around the 420 ppm mark.This is low. It is the Sun that chiefly drives the vast complex entity that we call weather, largely in the Troposphere. To try and base electricity generation on flimsy wind and solar is utter madness, as is the ridiculous obsession with electric cars. Even if there were an incremental warming of the planet, which is to do with complex interactions with the Sun and Earth's orbit, not human industrial and internal combustian engine emissions, which hardly scratch the surface of the atmosphere in terms of what it does, net zero would make not a shred of difference.

  12. What are we doing about increasing our elec for 2050 when we have no fossils. We are talking trillions not millions. You are just exposing your lack of knowledge or lying about the massive underestimationof what is needed. Not just the grid we vacant even do that let alone full net zero in 2050. Private sector finance will cost us dear like PFI . Not acceptable to lose control.. The zealot you had on is a rediculous. Money grabber. Desperate to condemn us to a caveman existence. Ask him about cost of backup to renewables whichever way you do it it increases prices massively or you go to regular blackouts. 1. Million heat pumps pa will cost £25 billion pa for all the work needed, EVs and charging at least the same. . Wind and solar farms 4 times what we have now, 400 new gas nd 50 nuclear, New grid £3 trillion. So much chaos it is unbelievable and all these things happening concurrently. Totalreappraisal needed. Urgently.

  13. You'd need a Battery the size of Birmingham to store all the energy for when the wind doesn't blow or the sun don't shine' what you going to do with a toxic Battery that size every 10 or 15 years when they no longer work' they're very expensive to recycle.
