The True Cost Of The Green Energy Boom Is Now Being Realized

 

For four decades we have been fed a constant stream of propaganda assuring us that green energy was the only way forward if we wanted to secure supplies of the energy essential to a modern society while preventing the environmental catastrophes that would be the inevitable consequence of climate change caused by the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emitted by human industrial, commercial and social activity.

The usual suspects (politics, the media and academic communities,) played down the fact that evidence for their predicted climate change scenarios came entirely from mathematical models of climate activity rather than real world evidence and played up the fear factor, cherry picking evidence from their results to paint pictures of a barren, lifeless planet if we allowed the concentration of the trace atmospheric gas Carbon Dioxide (which is essential to the continued viability of all carbon - based lifeforms (i.e. every living thing on the planet.). 

 It is all bollocks of course but that did not stop governments, advised by academics and cheered on by the media, pursuing loonytoons energy policies based on wind and solar panels (not quite smoke and mirrors but close enough for jazz,) and shutting down reliable coal, gas and nuclear power plants in favour of getting our energy from unreliable, intermittent sources. Wind does not blow at a constant speed twenty four hours a day, seven days a week and in reality only blows at speeds within the optimum for wind turbines to generate power for around twenty - five percent of the time. And although the information seems to have escaped followers of the quasi - religious cult that worships a god named "The Science," the sun is only present in the skies above their solar panels for on average twelve hours a day.

It is due to ignoring basics like this we in the developed nations of Europe and North America find ourselves in the grip of an energy crisis. The energy crisis in Europe has highlighted  the challenges the world is facing in the what progressives global energy transition and realists think of as the return to medievalism

Throughout the decades in which 'sustainainable energy has been touted as the saviour of civilisation it is becoming increasingly clear that green energy has failed, wind turbines and solar panels cannot reliably supply enough energy to power modern societies and fossil fuels will remain the key part of the energy generation for decades to come.

In spite of vast investment of money and resources in wind and solar, and the headlong rush by government policy makers to embrace the 'net zero' committment so fashionable among 'climate scientists' although real scientific studies show it is unachievable, and attempting to get there will habe a disastrous effect on national economies and plunge millions of families into poverty and render the poorest destitute, the politicians and academics who have promoted green power and their servants in the media who have loyally reported their lies, misrepresentations and fake statitics continue to push this idiocy.

In 2018, Aluminum '18 Dusseldorf the “premier aluminum conference in Europe”, the weather alert app kept displaying daily ozone levels in the “high” or “extremely high” range and any delegates experienced a persistent cough. This, the organisers explained, was due to the dominant method of energy generation used in Germany, coal. A few years before that the German government had proudly proclaimed itself one of the leaders in the switch to green energy and the race to achieve the fabled 'net zero.' 

Unfortunately as well as phasing out its coal fired power plants, after the Japanese Fukushima nuclear disaster, the German government implemented a plan to shut down its entire nuclear operations no later than 2022

We can now see that decision by Germany was a real clunker, whether it was "led by The Science," (such decisions are always wrong,) or by a genuine but misplaced desire to save the planet (in which case it targeted the wrong demon,) it has resulted in Germany losing its leverage with Russia, because where Russia's need for foreign exchange balanced Germany's need for gas, now Germany, having shut down its alternative energy sources and abandoned coal, now relies on Russian gas, while Russia has alternative customers to sell to. 

And ironically Germany already had “clean energy” from its well managed nuclear installations but now must revert to 'dirty' coal to avoid blackouts.

Meanwhile, as the world watches the Russian invasion and also prognosticates the impact of sanctions, (the Boggart Bloggers forecast sanctions will have minimal impact for reasons stated here many times,) other European nations are falling into similar energy holes they have dug for themselves will badly thought out green policies.

And with the hit to energy supplies that must come from any prolonged conflict in Ukraine, German industrial, commercial and domestic energy users can expect rough (and expensive) times ahead.

Rishi Sunak Reveals How Boris Sold Us Out To Big Pharma and Globalism

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Rishi Sunak - Picture: Deccan Chronicle

 

It is highly unlikely that We The People will ever really know what went on the the cabinet room at No. 10 Downing Street in the run up to the nation being put in lockdown as pandemic panic gripped the nation in the spring of 2020.  One of the problems with our system of government, "the cabinet system" is that members of the Cabinet, the Prime Minister's inner circle of senior ministers are, as a condition of holding heir position, required to support decisions made 'in cabinet' by that inner circle regardless of their personal feelings on the issue.  And it seems most people in Boris Johnson's cabinet during the run up to the disastrous and entirely ineffective lockdowns were kept in the dark about many things, including the fact that 'The Science' on which lockdown policy was based was not science at all, there was absolutely no empirical evidence that lockdowns, mask mandates or social distancing laws wouls do anything to slow or halt the spread of the SARS-COV2 virus. Government was effectively reduced to a “quad” of ministers and their dodgy 'scientific advisers' deciding on Britain’s future. Rishi Sunak, an unfancied contender in the current race to succeed the discredited Johnson and at that time Chancellor of the Exchequer was one of them. There were rumours at the time that Sunak was horrified at much of what was going on, and repeatedly warned that lockdowns would inflict economic damage that was likely to endure for decades. Unfortunately due to the principle of collective cabinet responsibility, resign and speak out or stay in post and fight the pseudoscientific insanity from a position of power.

His speaking out now  he is no longer chancellor and his bid to replace Boris Johnson as Conservative Party leader and Prime Minister of the nation has fallen victim to a backlash from the party rank and file because he is perceived as the man who stappped Boris in the back, confirms much of what many have suspected. The culture of fear created by pandemic scaremongering, and the Orwellian macinations of Boris and his unelected globalist cronies in collusion with mainstream media, that was usded so effectively to terrify the nation, was not 'led by science' as the official narrative claimed, but instead was pat of a hiddden agenda. 

Questioning lockdown, even behind locked doors in cabinat meetings, was seen as an attack on the Prime Minister’s authority. To ask even basic questions – about how many extra cancer deaths there might be, for example – was to risk being portrayed as one the crackpots, the “Cov-idiots”, people who wanted to “let the virus rip”. Fascism had taken hold in the heart of Whitehall.

To maintain the illusion that our individual freedoms and civil rights were being stolen from us in order that we could be protected from a 'deadly' disease that did not kills many people meant elevating the corrupt SAGE (Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies,) committee to the status of a mini-government: don’t blame us, ministers wanted to say, we’re just following the best scientific advice. For that reason, there never was an economic or a social analysis of the damage the government's pandemic policies were doing to economically and to communities, a see-no-evil policy applied. Which worked, until the aftershock of lockdown began – with the evil there for all to see.

Lockdown, Sunak says, was always a political decision but No 10 wanted to dress it up as “following the science”. There may be some truth in this but also there is a lot of evidence that the decision was made not by politicians but by outside influences such as the WEF, the World Health Organisation (WHO), billionaire psychopath Bill Gates who funded the mathematical modelling project that predicted 500,000 excess deaths in UK during the first wave of COVID and the pharmaceutical corporations that own so many scientists and universities, vast swathes of the media and that manufactured the vaccines that were so bad the manufacturers warned they would not make people immune to the disease. This was a conspiracy at the highest level. And remember this nightmare was being enacted not just  in the U.K. it’s tentacles reached into just about every Western government from Canada to NZ the US to France, Italy, Germany, Australia etc.. All these leaders reciting the same mantras over and over. Remember Build, Back, Better?

Funny how all these governments are now desperately rushing through their own versions of censorship bills to prevent free and open discussion of the COVID scandals. They claim they want to fight mis and disinformation. No they want to save their own arses, the status quo and do everything in their power to stop the truth from getting out.

This matters because it’s not about the Tory leadership. Sunak now stands almost no chance: the race is nearly over with most votes cast. Polls show Liz Truss ahead on a two-to-one ratio. Nor is it about score-settling: Sunak spoke to the media on the understanding that he was not naming “the guilty men”. He wanted speak on record about the process (or lack thereof) because he thinks that candour will help correct mistakes for next time. People who think a General Election in which the Conservatives would almost certainly be defeated is going to solve anything need to remind themselves that throughout the pandemic crisis The Labour Party only offered by way of opposition to the government's fascistic measures only demands for more oppressive measures, stricter policing of COVID restrictions and stiffer punishments for those who did not obey.

It is to be hoped Sunak will be the first of many to speak out, because, whether you share his political affiliation or not, he has revealed that our system of government is Not Fit For Purpose. As one Cabinet minister commented on the atmosphere in government yesterday: “It wasn’t just Rishi. I needed my own network of spies to find out what was happening in lockdown, because we were never told.” 

If this is what was going on, if there was no proper Cabinet scrutiny, if it’s true that no overall cost-benefit analysis of lockdown was ever seriously attempted, it points to a collapse in basic standards of government. At a time when high standards and rigorous analysis was most needed.

As least now there can be denying that having voted ourselves out of the authoritarian bureaucratic dictatorship of the EU, we have been delivered by Boris Johnson and a bunch of unelected bureaucrats into the hands of an even worse tyranny, the wannabe world government of the United Nations and its agencies.

 

 


The epitaph of The Johnson regime can therefore be found towards the end of G K Chesterton's poem The Secret People:

"They have given us into the hand of new unhappy lords,
Lords without anger or honour, who dare not carry their swords.
They fight by shuffling papers; they have bright dead alien eyes;
They look at our labour and laughter as a tired man looks at flies.
And the load of their loveless pity is worse than the ancient wrongs,
Their doors are shut in the evening; and they know no songs."


But we ordinary punters can take heart from the poem's opening lines:
"Smile at us, pay us, pass us; but do not quite forget;
For we are the people of England, that never have spoken yet."

All we have to do is sack the establishment parties Labour, Conservative and Lib Dem, they've all sold us out at some point,  whenever you have the chance vote for anybody but their representatives, and destroy the elected dictatorship.

Why have we doctors been silent? — by Lucie Wilk

It has been a year and a half of confusion, frustration and anger for me as I’ve watched our profession drawn into complicity with what I anticipate will be regarded as one of the most egregious public health disasters in history. I have watched as ‘the science’ has been presented on the national stage flanked by Union Jack flags as an unassailable truth. For something so apparently inviolable, it seems to shift and change disconcertingly from week to week ...
