This week the Lib Dems voted for Labour’s new, stricter Net Zero target. I asked their energy spokesperson why replacing British production with dirtier foreign imports helps climate change… …and why they blindly trust the Climate Change Committee when their offshore wind costings were wrong *by a factor of...

The Climate Change Committee tried to censor me. When I wrote in a newspaper that they were underplaying the cost of offshore wind, they tried to force me to edit it out. I refused and was proved right. Our public bodies should seek the truth, not to silence politicians.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump takes huge VICTORY LAP after the climate change "experts" at the United Nations announce they were WRONG "GOOD RIDDANCE! After 15 years of Dumocrats promising that “Climate Change” is going to destroy the Planet, the United Nations TOP Climate Committee just admitted that its own projections (RCP8.5) were WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!" "For far too long Climate Activism has been used by Dumocrats to scare Americans, push horrible Energy Polices, and fund BILLIONS into their bogus research programs." "Unlike the Dumocrats, who use Climate Alarmism nonsense to push their GREEN NEW SCAM, my Administration will always be based on TRUTH, SCIENCE, and FACT! President DONALD J. TRUMP" This was one huge FRAUD. Never fund the green scams again! 🔥

The liars are now trying to block the sun after gaslighting you that you were responsible for climate change.😡 They are working on these projects in secret and believe they can stop what is coming. But I suspect this is all part of their plan to give you false hope once again while they build their doomsday bunkers. Why would they use geoengineering to ‘reverse’ climate change if they could do it by simply stopping their profits from the oil industry? It’s because they know climate change is driven mainly by the Sun and by axial and apsidal precession. This is the cyclical event that, in their secret circles, is known as the geophysical event. They are afraid, and their plans border on madness! Read this rabbit hole thread! (1/8)🧵

"Why I don't believe in human-made climate change, and why Net Zero is a scam." "Look at China and look at India. Their emissions are skyrocketing and... we're that flat line at the bottom. Yet somehow we're the ones getting punished." "We're banning gas stoves, taxing farmers and paying more for power, while our government expands gas projects and exports coal to China and India." "If it's really about the environment, why are we shipping these so-called fossil fuels to the rest of the world?" "And every time the experts get it wrong, they just move the goalposts." "First it was acid rain, then it was the ozone, then it was global warming, then it was melting ice caps, then it was global boiling, and now it's climate change." "The wording now is so vague they can never be wrong. Too cold? Climate change. Too hot? Climate change. It's not about the weather, it's about... control." "We build entire energy grids from solar and wind, which only work for some of the year and are mostly foreign-owned. That's not sustainability. That is a government-backed scam."

I believe the PM broke the law when he delayed Net Zero back in September . The govt are under obligation from the Climate Change Act to meet Net Zero by 2050 through their own Carbon Budget – this can't be abandoned on a whim . That's why I'm taking them to the High Court .

🚨Labour and Lib Dem MPs just voted to INCREASE the cost of energy, food, shipping, housing, heating and holidays by voting for Ed Miliband’s new Net Zero target. One of the reasons I asked to stay in this brief was my time in the Department and seeing how badly we were making decisions about climate and energy. There’s simply no scrutiny or proper analysis of what these targets are doing to jobs, the cost of living or to the competitiveness of our industry. The Minister bringing it forward refused to take a single intervention. She did not answer a single question. I’m sorry, but that is simply not good enough. MP after MP cited bogus figures or praised the Climate Change Committee’s analysis without being even slightly troubled that their cost of offshore wind was wrong by a factor of three. Get the cost of energy wrong and all your other assumptions about the cost of living and the economy will be wrong too. I am proud Kemi Badenoch and I have changed our party’s position. We are the only party who have said we should measure the offshoring of emissions. We are the only party who have a plan to make electricity cheaper without costing the taxpayer a penny. We are the only party with a fully costed plan to axe the Carbon Tax which is replacing clean British industry with dirtier foreign imports. This debate shows why Parliament is not working. Poor analysis let off the hook by poor scrutiny. So-called impact assessments which are written to be as impenetrable as possible, and which MPs show no interest in reading or questioning. We need fewer virtue signalling MPs and many more who can read modelling assumptions.

Frightening primary-school students with ridiculous climate-change alarmism must stop. Our children are “paralysed with anxiety”, a leading Australian psychologist says, thanks to the doomsday climate-change nonsense they get force-fed at school. This week I asked the State Government to protect SA school kids against this disturbing trend. The timing is perfect, given the Federal Government’s laughable National Climate Risk Assessment and its fairy-tale emissions target were both released this week.

.Kayleigh McEnany exposes how Democrats have been lying about climate change for years in a brutal segment exposing John Kerry, Greta Thunberg, AOC, and Barack Obama’s fear-mongering “In 1995, the New York Times predicted that most of the beaches on the East Coast of the United States would be gone in 25 years. Well, the beaches are still sandy and the ice caps are still frozen. But every major Democrat has campaign rather on climate change, using it as a scare tactic. Vote for them or the world's going to melt. And once they're in, they send huge climate contracts to their friends, to their donors, but no one's buying it anymore. Democrats have cried climate wolf so many times that even the Times is telling them to cut it out. They say Democrats don't have to campaign on climate change anymore. Turns out voters care about energy prices, not windmills, solar panels. The New York Times says it's not clear why climate should be at the center of Democrat campaigns. And even under Biden, climate wasn't a top priority for voters. A poll from 2024 had climate at the bottom of the list. And remember the Democrats' top climate warrior, Greta? Well, she moved on from fighting climate change to freeing Palestine. Is the left finally going to give up its most expensive scam? After decades of hysteria, decades of finger pointing, the polls tanked. The money dried up faster than they said our water sources would. And now all of a sudden, Democrats don't care about climate change anymore.”

If climate change were real, why aren’t all the climate activists speaking out against the Tesla protests? Scott Adams “If climate change were real, Greta Thunberg would have already come out and said, “Guys, take this seriously. Tesla is not your enemy. I get how you're mad. But don't destroy the climate because you're mad at one individual for one reason that has nothing to do with Tesla.” So the fact that Greta Thunberg and all the other grifters seem to be quiet. That tells you a lot.”

Love this clip from today. Triggernometry has a climate change denialist Ian Plimer on to set him up with softballs. Their "pushback" questions are always "why do those lying climate change scientists disagree with you?" Then after he lays out a series of false, debunked, and misleading claims, they follow it up with a "how could anyone disagree with the obvious truths you are spouting?"

The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC) was not created by a group of scientists in the late-1980s with the intention of studying both natural and man-made impacts on the global climate system. That did not happen. Period. Why would the IPCC be needed on the scientific front when there were already government agencies like the BoM, Met Office, NASA, NCAR and NOAA working on this? The IPCC was created by bureaucrats with a vested financial and political interest to use the scientific community to build a case to regulate oil companies and control energy, in hopes they could convince the public that consumption of coal, oil and natural gas were causing harmful anthropogenic climate change. Climate change became the Goldilocks issue to move that agenda along, as it would otherwise have little support. Dr. Judith Curry (Judith Curry) explains this in her interview with John Stossel from October. 🎙️ Here’s a snippet. ✂️ 𝗗𝗿. 𝗝𝘂𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗿𝘆: “. . . The origins go back to the 1980s, and the U.N. environmental program had this big environmental agenda, anti-capitalism. They hated the oil companies and they seized on the climate change issue as one to move their policies along. . . the policy cart was way out in front of the scientific horse from the very beginning. So, the IPCC’s mandate was to look for dangerous human-caused climate change. The IPCC wasn’t supposed to focus on any benefits of warming. They weren’t supposed to focus on natural climate variability. They were just supposed to look for the signal of dangerous human-caused climate change.” 🔗 You can watch the full interview here:

“Their instinct was to silence a democratically elected politician and censor her. Rather than being interested in what the truth was, they were more interested in silencing me.” Shadow Energy Secretary and former Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho wrote an article in The Telegraph questioning the costings produced by the Department she once led. The Climate Change Committee — a public body — then lodged a complaint alleging that Claire’s article had breached the Independent Press Standards Organisation (IPSO) Editors’ Code. Rather than engage with the substance of her arguments, they sought to silence her. Claire fought back, but she is concerned that many others will keep their opinions to themselves when they should feel free to speak out. Cancel culture is stifling debate on Net Zero and energy policy. Watch the full episode with David Rose and Claire Coutinho on our YouTube channel 👇

Did you know our soldiers have to return all their gear when they leave the military? For some reason I always thought they got to keep most if not all of it. Why do we do that when they earned the right to keep it? If everyone gets new when they enlisted, makes you wonder where all the used stuff goes.🤔
