The Editor of UK Telegraph gives up! ‘We’ve lost the war against climate change. Time to scrap net zero’ – ‘We have crippled British industry, hammered consumers & pushed the grid to the brink of blackouts’ & put ‘us at the mercy of China’
By Allister Heath – The Editor of The Sunday Telegraph
It’s time to accept this sobering reality, cut our losses, cease tilting at (and building) windmills, ditch the despicable con that is net zero…
We were fooled into believing that we could single-handedly lead the way in saving the world, a futile gambit if there ever were one…
We have crippled British industry, hammered consumers and pushed the grid to the brink of blackouts, all with no discernible impact on global emissions and the climate.
Britain’s re-embrace of collectivism, of energy rationing, our advanced case of suicidal empathy, have achieved little other than putting us at the mercy of China…
All of our efforts at carbon reduction (and those of the European Union) have been offset many times over by the increase in Chinese emissions..
Yet fuelled by a neo-Victorian moral revivalism, the UK’s cross-party elites, having lost an empire and searching for a role as international central planners, convinced themselves that we should lead by example and through self-sacrifice, and bet the house on net zero. Ordinary people are paying the price for this delusion.
