Ex-UKIP Leader issues STERN warning to ‘go MATURELY’ with net-zero: ‘Ordinary people are STRUGGLING’
GBNews 
‘Ordinary people are struggling, their cost of living is increasing compared to their income. The public can’t take much more. When we’ve got an economy that is creating so little in the way of global emissions we’ve got to pace ourselves maturely.’
Henry Bolton on net zero policies, as the Energy Secretary says Labour’s plans are ‘unrealistic’.

"Coal is non-existent"
Yeah, because we stopped digging it out of the ground. Idiot.
There are no 'renewables' as none of them can replace any fossil fuel generation.
The cheap goods the west demands are made by China and India. That’s the source of their pollution.
Dale must be having lewd thoughts about Greta Thunberg at night
Follow the money – By 2060 if not sooner world fossil fuels will be exhausted and run out. So even if we do nothing the situation will remedy itself. Our electricity network can't support masses of new towns being built to house our massive population growth, never mind the strain electric vehicles put on. Net zero reeks of the wool being pulled over our eyes and someone making lots of money.
Note that with the Continent swinging right, the EU might back off on destroying their home industries – It would be madness for pursue ill considered policies
So we should spend 1,5 trillion on the advice of a modern day wincie Willis I think not.
Communism can be expensive …..!!!
Net zero is a fine idea but to do it in the time scale in the way they want is just a fairy story , the green agenda and their supporters are actually insane
jin no clue dale never looked at the Green land ice cores , the climate has been changing since the start of the planet formed and the planet has never been greener
Just stop oil should be banned
Pathetic!
Yes! Dumping net zero and inefficient wind and solar is a winner!
A better policy would be to levy 1% of energy companies revenue yearly to go into a british energy company to fund renewable generation & fussion R&D.
Excellent, a “news” channel for children 🎉🎉
Anyone fancy a pint?
Three Stooges.
Why the rush for net zero
Which will put the bills up on the average person
For millions of years the temperatures fluctuated all the around the planet
Now that is a known fact
That not to say humans have not sped it with pollution
As for the north sea storage closure was signed off by liz truss if i remember rightly
Jim explains their strategy in first minute; get ppl talking about it, and then they can persuade the dim with fake stats and as long as over half agree they push forward. They dont care whether you are for or against the idea of man made climate change, the point of flooding the airwaves about this subject is to build consensus.
We can't afford it!!!
We are hard working citizens we can just about pay for things let alone go on holiday anymore
Robbing us in daylight.
My bill now with octopus is £56
EDF wanted £455 so stressful
Trapped me by saying I owed the last company nearly £2000
What the hell
Some energy companies are robbing people blind
It's not fair
politicians are either stupid or liars or traitors or all three.
They can't get the weather forecast for next bloody week or month never mind the next year or decade…….ridiculous
Yet another GBN fail.
Where are the people who don't support NetZero im this debate?
Where is Micheal Kelly? Where is Ross Clark? Where is Bjorn Lomberg or Micheal Schellernberger?
Only 17% of energy usage in the UK is electricity. That means to go NetZero we would need six times the current generating capacity (which is falling because they are shutting down coal fired power stations).
A minimum of six times the distribution capacity (six times the aluminium and copper currently in use – according to the BBC renewables require 7 times the copper than traditional generating methods). We will need, globally more copper in the next ten years than we have ever mined. The same is true of Lithium.
Energy crisis is due to Net Zero not the Ukraine war.
A large portion of supposed renewables comes from Drax B, fired by waste and wood pellets shipped from North America. This power station is dirty than coal.
The average UK home has a 60A incomer. To replace gas with electricity, most homes will need to be upgraded. Estimates put this cost at between £70k and £100k per household.
Who is going to pay for this?
I have just gone through the second winter where I couldn't put the heating on.
Jim Dale should go back to making Carry On Films.

None of these people have any expertise in a proper science or engineering.
Gas is much much cheaper than renewables. These people are simply lying.
The UKs used emissions have NOT fallen.
In fact the emissions we are responsible for have increased. We have exported the manufacture of goods to countries whose power generation is NOT as clean as ours. We also have the added emissions of transport.
Next to be exported will be our food production as they take all the rarm land to build wind/solar farms. But by then we won't have am economy and wont have anyoney to buy food from abroad.
Oh for crying out loud, what ya got him on for?
Hes full of shite
Oh another idiot
Bring back coal
