Gradually official estimates of the cost of Net Zero are creeping up to more realistic numbers. The reality is more likely to be in the trillions. Scrapping Net Zero would go a long way to fixing the public finances.
Net Zero lunacy will cost the British people £803 Billion by 2050 according to the OBR
"I can't think of a single green policy that's not regressive... it's poorer people who'll not be able to afford to get a heat pump for the time being, will be stuck with these new taxes that Ed Miliband is planning." @HarryWilkinsonn on Miliband's ‘boiler ban by the backdoor’
“I think this case is really indicative of that disconnect between our elite institutions and the public priorities… They're obsessed with spending vast quantities of people's money on these harebrained green schemes.” @HarryWilkinsonn tells @GBNEWS
"Let's stop obsessing around just the emissions of electricity and actually realise that if we get the cost of electricity down, we would engender so many other positive benefits." @HarryWilkinsonn tells @GBNEWS
“The bad news keeps coming when it comes to Net Zero, it is economic suicide... Unfortunately we are learning the hard way that if we increase energy costs for a whole range of businesses, that is a complete disaster.” @HarryWilkinsonn tells @GBNEWS
“This is a very welcome development, but it doesn't unlock the potential of the North Sea going forward, because Ed Miliband is still saying no new licenses for oil and gas in the North Sea.” @HarryWilkinsonn tells @GBNEWS
“Ed Miliband is apparently giving the go ahead to some drilling in the North Sea.” @Iromg “This certainly comes as a big surprise to me. It's very welcome, of course… It makes perfect sense. He should have seen the logic of this much sooner.” @HarryWilkinsonn
“The jobs in the North Sea, the tax coming out the North Sea, the energy security that comes out the North Sea, all gone, all going abroad… Now if you're telling me that that equates to energy security, then I'm the Jolly Green Giant.” @cmackinlay tells @Iromg on @TalkTV.
“The ZEV mandate tells you everything you need to know about Net Zero. This isn't about giving people free choices about the technologies they want to use. This is about saying we're going to have mandatory targets.” @HarryWilkinsonn tells @GBNEWS.
