The UK is “running headlong into this net zero fantasy”, says Spiked Online Editor Tom Slater.
His remarks come as the nation is set to stop producing any electricity from burning coal – ending its 142-year reliance on fossil fuel.
“We’re going to become the first country to completely abandon coal-assisted source of energy, closing our last remaining coal-fired power plant,” Mr Slater told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio.

Windmills 🤣
You need oil & gas & just some electric.
Electric is made by….. you need a load of batteries made by/ who m
Plenty of energy perhaps but no real logic
So dumb 😂😂, but don’t forget UK has nuclear
Load of brainwashed illogical fallacies. Has anyone actually done the proper comprehensive reading about this
Starmer gets his free crate of vodka from Russia each week.
Plenty of energy perhaps but no real logic.
The UK has 9 nuclear power stations so getting rid of coal isn’t a big issue.
The fall of Western civilization. In slow motion at present but will pick up steam as it proceeds 😮😢
Lol
Dark Ages here we come Yabadabado🥸🥸🥸🥸🥸
Good let’s watch in 7 years when the turbines all need oil.
Right about now the whole world is full of fuck ups and it's getting worse. Is Jesus coming back?
If you don't want coal then it has got to be nuclear and if you don't want nuclear then it has to be coal, so the lights stay on.
Didn’t Zee Germans try this rather unsuccessfully 🤦♂️
Miliband is a bigger zealot than Bowen so the UK economy will collapse…?
We have eco-zealots in charge of our country 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ help us
They 're closing the last coal-fired power station; the one they had to keep open in January 2024 due to not having enough power generation. God help us if we don't have a very mild winter!
The great net zero delusion
Someone calculated that you could power the entire UK's population with just 7 nuclear power plants.
Isn't that amazing to hear and shouldn't that be the end all be all on this s show they are trying to push?
Nice way to skim money off us, I wonder if this too will be abandoned as some point
High energy costs equal to industries demise, higher manufacturing costs, adding to further de-industrialisation. Eg British Steel ( = men losing jobs). Services/Retail sector have not recovered in major UK cities and towns ( = women losing jobs). Where is UK heading to in the future ?
Renewables are net zero fantasy 😈😇 youve all been had by the bobblehead buffoon 😂😂🤡🎪
The new immigrants are going to be pissed
There is no such thing as “ fossil fuel” oil/coal/natural gas is just that- natural secretions and natural elements of the earth’s creation/existence.
Uk net zero is a joke. Exporting so called problems to other countries is not reducing the problem which is below 1% as is highly unlikely to go below.
And no one will be held accountable for the disaster looming.
Where are these ratbag fanatics coming from?
There is a village somewhere depriving itself of 1d10ts …
The UK is totally stuffed and this is just one of a long list of problems like, mass uncontrolled immigration, National sovereignty and identity under attack, Christianity under attack, out of control crime, massive power prices, sky high cost of living, two tier policing……Australia does this sound familiar? Almost like the UN planned this for all western countries?
Back to the dark ages for the UK. Lol there goes Australia if labor stays in government.
Keep the people poor, and they'll do what they're told.
Net zero is a lie,all you need to learn is basic physics,make yourselves sheep,and the wolves will eat you.
The electrical prices went up under the conservatives, as far as I’m concerned if anyone is to blame for energy prices it’s the conservatives and saying that fossil fuels are more reliable then renewables is forgetting climate change which definitely would have killed billions if we didn’t do anything to stop it
