Work, pay and welfare
Benefits, pensions, minimum wage, the four-day week. Rewrite the social contract.
Enough already with these insane energy bills for small businesses!
It's ridiculous. Every quarter I'm bracing myself for the new energy bill and it feels like a gamble with my businesses. We've absorbed so much cost over the last few years, from ingredients to wages, and the energy price hikes have been a
Time for a Scottish Energy Plan
As a nation, Scotland has the chance to lead the way in renewable energy, but we need to be realistic about how we get there. I've read about the problems with Net Zero targets and I think we can do better. We should be focusing on a made-i
Ditch Renewable Targets, Focus on Nuclear
I think we should scrap these unrealistic renewable energy targets and invest in nuclear power instead, cos let's be real, it's the only way we're gonna meet our energy needs. We can't just rely on solar and wind, they're not reliable enoug
Free Market Energy Solutions Over Ideology
As a lifelong Conservative, I'm frustrated by the party's recent drift towards statist interventionism, and the energy sector is no exception. The Net Zero targets are a prime example of this, with unrealistic timelines and a lack of consid
Enough with the green fantasies, let's get cheap power for homes and businesses NOW.
We need a new national energy policy focused on reliable, affordable power and frankly, that means more gas and nuclear and less of the expensive green stuff for now. My clients are terrified about their heating bills this winter, and mine
Energy Security: Common Sense Over Climate Alarmism
It’s utterly exhausting listening to these endless debates about Net Zero as if it’s some sort of religious commandment. Honestly, the obsession with hitting arbitrary targets seems to eclipse any real concern for what working families are
A Balanced Energy Approach is Needed
As a long-time advocate for sensible policy, I am dismayed by the prevailing approach to energy production, which often prioritises ideology over pragmatism. The notion that we can abruptly transition to a fully green energy system is not o
Enough with the Net Zero Madness, Let's Get Real About Energy
I’m sick to death of hearing about Net Zero targets that seem to ignore basic physics and economics. We're meant to just wave a magic wand and have this perfect green energy system overnight, while people freeze and industries collapse. It’
Enough is enough! Energy price caps need a serious rethink, not just tinkering.
Saw young Kev from down the road yesterday, stressed to the eyeballs. He runs that little bakery on the corner, been there ten years, always gets his morning roll from me. Said his electricity bill doubled, nearly put him out of business. H
Mandate a minimum vote share for parties to gain seats.
Seeing the results from Scotland makes you wonder about the effectiveness of our electoral system. It seems parties can win seats with a relatively small percentage of the vote, which doesn't always reflect broad public support. This can le
Energy and Bills: regulate market with a public owned option
Energy should be simple. You use it, you pay a fair price, and you don’t feel like you’ve just received bad medical news. Right now, it’s not. Bills confuse people, loyalty is punished, and too many households are one cold evening away fro
Full backing for solar farms — with some very reasonable conditions
The Nimby Liberation Front is fully committed to net zero and believes solar farms are an essential part of the energy transition. We support them wholeheartedly, subject to the following very reasonable conditions: — Not visible from a li
The Green party's 'unrealistic' ideas are the only realistic response to reality
I hear this criticism often, usually from people who consider themselves pragmatic: the Greens have nice ideas but they are not realistic. I understand the instinct. Some Green proposals do sound ambitious. A four-day working week. Universa
Community energy cooperatives with guaranteed grid access and fair export tariffs
Germany has over 800 energy cooperatives. Local communities own solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage. The profits stay local. Energy bills are lower. And public support for renewables is far higher than in countries where turbin
All new wind turbines must be invisible and silent and preferably in France
We are absolutely pro-renewable energy. Climate change is the defining challenge of our generation and we take it very seriously. We have a heat pump and everything. That said, the proposal for a wind farm on the ridge above Little Snoring
Insulate every home in Britain by 2035 as the single biggest climate and poverty measure
The UK has some of the least energy-efficient housing stock in western Europe. Around 19 million homes have an EPC rating below C. These homes leak heat, cost more to run, and push people into fuel poverty. Improving them is simultaneously
Energy companies shouldnt make record profits while people cant heat their homes
British Gas made 750 million in profit in the first half of 2023. In that same period millions of people were choosing between heating and eating. If you cant see the problem with that sentence I dont know what to tell you. This isnt com
Bring water, rail, and energy into democratic public ownership
Privatisation was sold to us as a way to improve services through competition. Forty years on, we can assess whether that promise was kept. Water companies have accumulated £72 billion in debt while paying out £78 billion in dividends. Trai
