U.S. Energy Secretary Lashes Out At UK's Sinister And Unrealistic Net Zero Targets

 

U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright,  speaking at a London conference on Monday, condemned the United Nations backed 2050 net-zero emissions target as a "sinister goal" and criticized the U.K.'s clean energy policies which aim to have our country 'lead the world to economic and social breakdown Net Zero, according to Reuters.

With President Trump having already taken steps to abandon the target, which was embraced enthusiastically by the far left apparatchiks who created and implemented policies for the previous administration of mentally incapacitated Joe Biden, Wright said,: "Net Zero 2050 is a sinister goal. It's a terrible goal. The aggressive pursuit of it - and you're sitting in a country that has aggressively pursued this goal - has not delivered any benefits, but it's delivered tremendous costs."

Addressing the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship event, Wright emphasized his top priority: for the government to "get out of the way" of oil, gas, and coal production.

 

The Reuters report states that Wright highlighted the Trump administration’s approval of the Commonwealth LNG export terminal in Louisiana Wright underscored the importance of  hydrocarbons', adding, "The world simply runs on hydrocarbons, and for most of their uses, we don't have replacements."

Criticizing Britain's net-zero push led by Prime Minister Kweir Smarmer and swivel eyed Net Zero fanatic Energy Secretary Mad Ed Miliband, he argued the policy and the ill considered efforts to be first in the world to reach the impossible target had already harmed living standards, destroyed jobs and by taxing CO2 emitting industries into insolvency had merely shifted emissions abroad. "No one's going to make an energy-intensive product in the United Kingdom any more. It's just been displaced somewhere else," he said, calling the policy "lunacy" that is impoverishing your own citizens in a delusion that this is somehow going to make the world a better place."

Prime Minister Starmer, however, has made clean energy central to his economic strategy, focusing on offshore wind for job creation and growth even though this source is so economically unviable that the world's biggest offshore and farm operator, Orsted, has cancelled planned developments in UK waters . Former President Donald Trump also weighed in on UK Net Zeto lunacy, urging the U.K. to "open up" North Sea oil and gas and scrap wind farms, but it seems the government are not getting the message.

“Energy bills are set to rise again due to a spike in global gas markets,”  Miliband claimed this week. This latest rise means that the price cap administered by energy retail market regulator Ofgem will also rise this April. This will be the third price cap increase since the General Election lsast July, when Miliband campaigned on a promise of ‘lower bills’after the transition to green energy. “This will put up energy bills because of our reliance on global fossil fuel markets controlled by petrostates and dictators,” the Secretary of State for Rising Energy Prices and Outright Falsehoods idiotically added. There is trouble, and likely blackout and electricity rationing ahead, but rather than admit this is simply because wind and solar genertion simply does not work when the wind does not work and the sun doesn't shine, (the latter being guaranteed for an everage of twelve hours a day over the full year,)  and face up to these problems, Miliband merely gaslights the public. It is never mentioned by politicians or mainstream media of course tat the previous wannabe leader of the race to net zero, Germany, has to abandon its rush to clean green electricity and restart coal fired power stations late in 2023 when the failure of wind and solar and the loss of cheap gas supplies from Russia left the country facing blacouts ad rationing of electricity use.

There are so many problems with Miliband’s claims it is clear he was desperately lying to deflect attention from the stupidity of his policies. 

The first is that there is no “global” gas market – a fact that one might expect the most senior Minister with an energy brief to understand. This fact is easily demonstrated by a comparison or natural gas prices on different markets. At the time of writing, according to the Trading Economics platform, gas was selling for £0.117 per therm in Britain and $4 per MMMbtu in the USA – translated, this means gas is 4p per kWh in the UK and 1p per kWh in the USA. If there was a “global market” for the energy commodity, these prices would be much closer – within the order of a few per cent, as with oil, not one many times larger than the other. There is no more a “global market” for gas than there is a global market for blowjobs.

If the CEO or Finance Director of any listed company misled the markets and investors in the way the Labour Party has, they would be in a world of trouble. How can politicians not be accountable in the same way?

The Artificial Intelligence Takeover: Oligarchic Insanity or Socialist Stupidity?

 V N Alexander writes in OffGuardian 

"I am thrilled that the Tech Bros are tearing down the old system, I’m worried they will replace inefficient centralized control and bureaucracy with more efficient AI centralized control and bureaucracy. Collapsing the old system of governance is something, not incidentally perhaps, the WEF has promoted as necessary for the 4th Industrial Revolution, the transhuman revolution.

Elon Musk (at the helm of Neuralink, Starlink), Larry Ellison (with Oracle), Peter Thiel and Alex Karp (who founded Palantir) have all expressed enthusiasm for merging biology with technology, figuring out how to live forever, micro-managing society using algorithms and AI surveillance, and other stupid things.

They each currently have oversized roles in or adjacent to the US federal government.

Should we be concerned?"

Before the US and UK elections of 2024, during America's four years of Biden insanity and the UK's insaneyears of four Prime Ministers (2019 - 2022), along with the constant demonstration of the insanity of the “left-wing, woke” influence in politics another threat to democracy was growing from tech-moguls (The Tech Bros.) intent on using their vast wealth and truncated moral compasses to buy political influence. It is interesting how the far left has put this in the right wing spectrum when The Tech Bros are most often assocated with woke ideology or at the very least the now somewhat outdated concepts of 'progressive liberalism until we get to their ambitions to put all government and business administration matters under the control of Artificial Intelligence and then, unhindered by democratic checks and balances forge ahead with plans to implant microchips in all our brains so that we can be constantly surveiled and controlled by supercomputers in their data centres. 

Wait, who wanted this free AI? When did we vote to have our lives taken over by computers. What exactly is good about this? (Of course, vast part of younger people want it and are delighted, this is the situation because they have been brainwashed in school, by TV and online to believe cyberslavery offers a better future than freedom.) Is this good news? Is this a race, or a synchronized global pseudo-race for radical reconstruction in a mode of false competition? (Here I am already very conspiratorial, there is no way “everyone can be together in this”, they are at war – factions, states, unions..) Wasn’t there something, some kind of principled battle against these things, instead of only against the “bad guys/leftist/foreign tech”, whereby “ours” are good, or at least “inevitability, normal technological development”?

This plan could be dubbed a “better great reset”, with erasure of The World Economic Forum, the murder of the far left and the establishment of a global technocracy.People will be told, forget this stupid principled battle against the radical transformation of societies controlled by a socialist elite with your best interests at heart. Global technocracy is already a fact of life, the cyberoligarchs are here and will run your lives more efficiently than you ever could yourselves, but give us, The Tech Bros 1, absolute power and we will use them for good, let the computers choose good people to apply them for good”… And then there’s the “global technology race.” Elon and his new best friend Donald Trump announce Stargate – the next day the Chinese announce a cool open-source ChatGpt, free for everyone, everyone!

And a large part of the media fell for it: “The Chinese released this Deep Seek AI for free, for everyone, not like the nasty American capitalists!” and also “The Chinese are advancing! We have to catch up with them!"

In Russia too, AI is a hot topic, The Kremlin popaganda machine says: “We need to implement AI everywhere, in every sector of society. AI technologies have great potential to transform society and bring a better future to our citizens… We need to develop Russian AI in order not to lag behind the technological race.”

But wait, before we get carried away with the hype let's pause for reality. Thinking and learning is an iterative process involving dynamic brain waves that are emergent from complex adaptive neurons. Waves are not bits. A memory (knowledge) is a type of neural behavior that is never quite the same twice and can’t be abstracted and uploaded into a brain. I’ve studied the infamous paper that claims uploading false memories is possible: but, in fact, they can only condition past memories, that is, associate feelings (hormonal responses) with past memories.

Neuralink can’t implant ideas and doesn’t read minds. Neuralink merely interfaces with motor control areas of the brain, not with memories or thoughts or language. So, the only “bits” going from brain to computer are those that can be used to activate a mouse, click, and swipe. The nerds employed by The Tech Bros. confuse motor impulses with thoughts, and believe Neuralink will some day be able to help us achieve “symbiosis” with computers and “better align Artificial Intelligence with human collective will.” They do not seem to be aware of the difference between playing a video game faster and acting more intelligently in the world.

 

Having tried Deep Seek as I tried ChatGPT when it was launched I observe that they have an important feature in common. Both thesre 'Intelligent' systems become more stupid the more abstract the questions fed to them become. Or to put it bluntly, ask AI a question that requires thought and analysis, reason, logic or any of the other cognitive skills that define human intelligence and they're fucked.

How fucked? you might well ask.

Fucking fucked it the honest answer Artificial Intelligence could never give.

Could 'DNA editing' lead to designer babies? Designer babies, human / animal hybrids, these things have been in wet dream territory for scientists for a long time. But now due to techniques such as DNA editing, they are getting worryingly close to reality.

After German Thought Police Raid Homes For ‘Racist Memes,' Elon Musk responds: ‘Thank The Lord That America Has Freedom Of Speech’

 

After American TV news magazine “60 Minutes” screened a special on German hate speech laws which featured police raids on citizens across the country a backlash was triggered that could causer a potential diplomatic fallout between the U.S. and Germany and certainly led to a meltdown on certain parts  of social media

The 60 Minutes  program, made by American news network CBS, prompted Elon Musk to respond to the shocking clips of police state tactics being used by the increasingly authoritarian, far left ruling coalition, writing: “Thank the Lord that America has freedom of speech.”

 


US Vice President J D Vance and German leader Reichsfuher Scheev Von Palpatine (picture credit: RMX news )

Despite widespread criticism of Germany’s slide towards becoming an authoritarian police state, despite government claims that they are defending democracy, is little different from the Nazis in the 1930s, the police, legal authorities and the interior ministry show no signs of eassing back with raids against individuals posting “hate speech,” “insults,’ or “racist memes.”

Now German politicians are also jumping on the bandwagon after simply snivelling the usuak politically correct cliches whenever the topic of immigration was rased for years. With the AfD, party soaring in polls and the election a few days away, a top member of the Free Democrats (FDP), the party which made the election necessary by resigning from the ruling coalition because of extremist policies demanded by their partners, Wolfgang Kubicki, stating on X: “Anyone who can still sleep peacefully in the face of such images has not understood the value of freedom of opinion for the democratic community. Freedom of opinion is the basis of freedom in general. These searches undermine confidence in the validity of the Basic Law. We will ensure that the next Bundestag prevents such authoritarian excesses.”

However, the house raids may also result in diplomatic fallout between the U.S. and Germany.

“Insulting someone is not a crime, and criminalizing speech is going to put a real strain on European-US relationships. This is Orwellian, and everyone in Europe and the US must reject this lunacy,” wrote Vice President JD Vance.”

The 60 minutes special  also features German prosecutors laughing over the house searches conducted in Germany, with one German X user, Marc A. Wilms, writing: “This shows how quickly we have landed in Orwellian conditions. By the way, these gentlemen are having a lot of fun with the fact that people are shocked when their mobile phones are taken away during a house search.

The 60 Minutes footage, a program from the American news network CBS, prompted Elon Musk to respond to the shocking clips, writing: “Thank the Lord that America has freedom of speech.”

Despite criticism for Germany’s slide towards an authoritarian police state, the police authorities and the interior ministry show no signs of slowing down with raids against individuals posting “hate speech,” “insults,’ or “racist memes.”

Now, German politicians are also chiming in, with a top member of the Free Democrats (FDP), MP Wolfgang Kubicki, stating on X: “Anyone who can still sleep peacefully in the face of such images has not understood the value of freedom of opinion for the democratic community. Freedom of opinion is the basis of freedom in general. These searches undermine confidence in the validity of the Basic Law. We will ensure that the next Bundestag prevents such authoritarian excesses.”

However, the house raids may also result in diplomatic fallout between the U.S. and Germany.

“Insulting someone is not a crime, and criminalizing speech is going to put a real strain on European-US relationships. This is Orwellian, and everyone in Europe and the US must reject this lunacy,” wrote Vice President JD Vance.

Musk has also issued more than one tweet in the wake of the CBS special.

He also reposted other segments of the 60 Minutes special, including a post from John LeFevre, where he wrote: “Calling a rapist is more offensive than being a rapist in Germany. And 60 Minutes is ok with this…”

The video also features German prosecutors who have a laugh over the house searches conducted in Germany, with one German X user, Marc A. Wilms, writing: “This shows how quickly we have landed in Orwellian conditions. By the way, these gentlemen are having a lot of fun with the fact that people are shocked when their mobile phones are taken away during a house search. ‘Even if they are not punished further, just taking it away is punishment in itself! Hehe!’ From a program that aired on US TV.”

One of the main points raised over and over again in the backlash against the authoritarian policy is whether an “insult” is a crime. In the show, German prosecutors tell CBS, without a hint of embarrassment that “insulting” a member of a protected minority or a politician is a crime, and even reposting an insult is a crime.

One of the main points is whether an “insult” is a crime. German prosecutors tell CBS that “insulting” someone or a politician is a crime, and even reposting an insult is a crime.

Notably, hundreds of people, if not thousands , have had their homes searched and their internet enabled devices seized, as well as being threatened with prosecution, for “insulting” politicians. Among the insults included calling Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock the “worst foreign minister.” In another case, a man had his home raided when he called Economics Minister Robert Habeck an “idiot.”

However, when those same insults and worse are directed at members of the centre - right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, surprise, surprise, it is not then a prosecutable offense .

Just a few months ago, for instance, a federal court in Cologne’s found that extremist threats against the AfD constituted “freedom of expression.”

“Break down their doors and gates, slap them in the face. Vomit in their faces. I don’t give a sh*t,” said public figure Peter Fischer to German state television channel RTL. Despite his comments being a blatant incitement to violence violence against the party and its supporters, the court claimed the violent statements from Fischer, the former president of the Eintracht Frankfurt football club, are protected speech under German law. 

All we can say it is seems Naziism is back with a vengange in Germany. Deutschland, Deutschland Uber Alles and all that.

Strategic Defence Review Lobbies For Incresed Spending On Military While Reeves Struggles To Find £12bn For Starmer's Current Spending Pledge

 by Colonel A Sealy - Farquhar, 17 February 2025

Rachel Reeves will have to bump up taxes by an extra £12bn if she wants to boost defence spending to 2.5pc of GDP in line with Keir Starmer's pledge to NATO and at the same time avoid a fresh round of austerity.

Economists have warned that Sir Keir Starmer’s ambition to bolster the defence budget implied the Chancellor would have to raise taxes or cut spending by £6bn a year alone if she wanted to hit the target by the end of the decade. Unfortunately Starmer and other European idiot heads oif government want that now because they fancy their chances of holding the line against Russia in Ukraine if President Trump cuts off the supply of arms and money to Kiev. Starmer has also allied himself with European warmongers who claim, without anything to substantiate their paranoid ravings, that if Ukraine falls Putin plans to advance right through Europe to the Atlantic coast. They back this up by suggesting The Kremlin is already conducting a campaign of intimidation, blackmail, and political leverage against European nations.

Ensuring that no Whitehall department faces real-terms cuts to its budget for day-to-day spending during this parliament would mean that £12bn of tax rises will be needed, according to the Resolution Foundation.

While Labour has not set out a timetable for raising defence spending to 2.5pc of the economy, military chiefs tasked with carrying out a Stratefic Defence Review, with a view tio reparing the UK to face Russia in armed conflict shortly after the Labour government took office have been piling pressure on the Prime Minister to go further and faster amid demands from Donald Trump to lift spending to as much as 5pc of GDP.

This means Chancellor Reeves faces the prospect of being forced to break her promise not to “come back with more borrowing or more taxes” less than six months after her record tax raid. Alternatively, she risks angering public sector unions by imposing deep spending cuts to unprotected Whitehall departments such as transport and housing.

While the Chancellor has suggested funding for Starmer's delusional posturing will come from cuts to spending and welfare, the Treasury has left the door open for more tax rises in March against a backdrop of low growth and higher borrowing costs.

Military spending demands and the pressure to protect certain government department’s budgets mean unprotected departments face finding total cuts of up to £12bn, or the equivalent of 6pc in real terms over this parliament.

Clearly, defence spending can be a technological driver of growth and the Military Industrial Complex a generally stable provider of employment and therefore taxable income. But UK’s relative economic position vis-à-vis the US and western Europe (and why not eastern Europe and the east?) is very much more dependent on service industries, which are best served by (a) a government which supports innovation and entrepreneurship, (b) a government promoting good relationships with all countries in the world and (c) inexpensive and stable energy supply. All of these things are under attack by the Labour governments foreign, business and energy policies.

The EU is a restrictive market so it was a good idea to leave it. As a small example, I recently learned that Japan imports its strawberries from Serbia, one of the few European – strawberry producing – countries not in the EU. Japan is a big market!

There is no Soviet bloc anymore and the Cuban missile crisis should remind you how understandable it is that a country will not accept another country placing missiles aimed at its main cities directly on its border. This was the main reason for Russia's first militarily approaching Kiev to convince the Ukrainian government that Moscow was serious about not having NATO missiles on its border and, when that was unsuccessful (because Russia naively believed France and Germany would convince Ukraine to step back), Russia was forced to invade.

We should not forget the US and NATO build up of weapons and military training in Ukraine since 2014 (and probably before), the push by the Obama and Biden administrations to fast track Ukraine into NATO nor the CIA training of Ukrainian insurgents at a dozen secret sites on the border to Russia (as reported by the New York Times, https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/25/world/europe/cia-ukraine-intelligence-russia-war.html).

Some pundits have said we must never allow ourselves to be put in a position where we have choose between aligning ourselves with the United States or Europe when, firstly, there is no reason for the two to be exclusive and, secondly, USA has just distanced itself from Europe (including UK) in telling us that Ukraine is forthwith our problem. That sounds rather like the US playing its standard role of school playground bully: you either do business with us or we sanction/tax/tariff you! But the world is tired of such behaviour which is one reason why BRICS is so successful.

My point is that UK should keep itself well away from all conflicts and, instead, encourage peace and wealth through business while having a healthy and strong defence force, but it should only be used for defence and not for aggression.

And the only intimidation, blackmail, and political leverage we are suffering from is from our own politicians.

Excluded From US / Russia Peace Talks, European Leaders Decide To Hold Their Own Summit

 

Snubbed By Trump and Putin, European Leaders(!) To Hold Their Own Summit On Ukraine

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron, both wearing suits and ties, stand next to each other as they pose for photographersImage source, Getty Images

Following the Munich security summit European leaders will gather next week for an emergency summit on the war in Ukraine in response to concerns the US and Russia are moving ahead with  peace talks that will exclude Europe. Senior figures in the Trump2 administration are due to meet Russian and Ukrainian negotiators in Saudi Arabia in the coming days, US officials say.

Sir Keir Starmer, never one to turn down a freebie, will attend the five star jolly meting in Paris, and described it as it was a "once-in-a-generation moment for our national security" which made clear Europe must take a greater role in Nato.

The move comes after Donald Trump's special envoy to Ukraine said European leaders would be consulted but not take part in any talks between US and Russia over ending the war. The toxic dwarf of Kiev was mot mentioned.

In remarks likely to be cause concern in Ukraine and among European allies, special envoy Keith Kellogg said previous negotiations had failed because too many parties had been involved.

"It may be like chalk on the blackboard, it may grate a little bit, but I am telling you something that is really quite honest," he said on Saturday.

SStarmer is understood to see his role as bringing US and Europe together to ensure a united approach to peace in Ukraine. Considering his success in uniting Britons in hatred of his government it is hard to see him achieving anything other than making the situation worse although in view of the constant stream of propaganda, from London,Paris and Brussels claiming that Ukraine is still winning it is hard to see how even somebody of SStarmers innate ineptiyude could make things worse.

The UK prime minister will discuss the views of European leaders when he visits US President Trump at the White House at the end of this month. A further meeting of European leaders together with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expected to take place after Sir Keir returns from Washington.

Sir Keir said the UK would "work to ensure we keep the US and Europe together", adding the two could not "allow any divisions in the alliance to distract" from "external enemies".

Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski said Emmanuel Macron had called the summit of European leaders, although has not yet been announced by the French president which makes one wonder if any European leaders actually know what they are doing.

Sikorski said: "President Trump has a method of operating, which the Russians call reconnaissance through battle. You push and you see what happens, and then you change your position, legitimate tactics. And we need to respond.

Earlier on Saturday, Zelensky called for the creation of an "army of Europe" amid rising concern the US may no longer come to the continent's aid. Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, he said US Vice-President JD Vance's speech at the event had made it clear that the old relationship between Europe and America was "ending" and the continent "needs to adjust to that".

But Zelensky also said Ukraine would "never accept deals made behind our backs without our involvement" after Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to start peace talks.

The US president earlier this week had a lengthy conversation with the Vladimir Putin following which he announced that negotiations to stop the "ridiculous war" in Ukraine would begin "immediately". Trump then "informed" Zelensky of his plan.

On Saturday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio also held a phone call with Russia's foreign minister "building on" the 12 February call between Trump and Putin. Trump's call with the Russian president earlier this week broke nearly three years of silence between Washington and Moscow.

US Representative Michael McCaul , chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told Reuters news agency. he understood Zelensky had been invited to take part in the Saudi talks, which were aimed at arranging a meeting with Trump, Putin and the Ukrainian president "to finally bring peace and end this conflict".

A day earlier, Vance had launched a scalding attack on European democracies, saying the greatest threat facing the continent was not from Russia and China, but "from within". In a speech at the Munich Security Conference, he repeated the Trump administration's line that Europe must "step up in a big way to provide for its own defence".

UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy has said the UK and EU countries must spend more on defence, with Europe facing an "existential question" even in the event of a negotiated peace in Ukraine.

Lammy told the Munich Security Conference on Saturday "Putin will not go away", and that, while it was positive 23 Nato countries were now spending at least 2% of their GDP on defence, "we all know we have to go upward".
