Just as I don’t buy the end of the world guff about Global Warming and Climate Change thanks to Martin Durking and Channel four I don’t buy the authoritarian eco austerity guff around Net Zero either that’s thanks to Robert Llewelyn yeah krypton from Red Dwarf and YouTube .

Simple as Electric cars don’t need petrol Stations and timing belts and heat pumps don’t need gas pipes and chimneys

My Granddad used to listen to the BBC on a Crystal Radio set and put coal on the fire to boil water for a tin bath . My dad used to listen to the shipping forecast and the Cricket Test match on a transistor radio with a 9 volt battery the size of a packet of biscuits . Now I drive a Chinese electric car with 200 miles of range that I can fully re charge overnight and type on a phone with 5 million times the computing power of the rocket that landed on the moon

If we want Net Zero we’re gonna have to re-nationalize the National Grid

If we wanna scrap Net Zero we,re gonna have to re-nationalize BP

We got rid of all our MAGNOX nuclear reactors that were only really good for making plutonium for out bomb to carry on our V Bomber force that was rendered obsolete when the Ruskies shot down Gary Powers and we had to buy Polaris from the yanks and generating lots of nuclear wastes that we have to store in concrete for evermore.

Build modern PWR nukes on the old coastal sites and put solar panels on every roof and put up wind turbines in the North Sea and Tesla Grid scale Mega pack storage next door to every electric substation.
