Enough With The Green Blob’s Virtue Signalling Already
I’m sick to death of seeing my council dig up perfectly good roads for yet another "cycle superhighway" that’s barely used, while the actual traffic grinds to a halt. It’s all performative nonsense, isn't it? They’re not actually solving an
Enough with the flimsy greenwashing, let's actually fund real environmental stuff
I was walking by the river last week and saw this huge pile of rubbish someone had just dumped. Plastic bottles, old tyres, bits of carpet – the lot. It’s depressing, isn’t it? You see these big government announcements about net zero and c
Stop Apologising For Britain On Climate Change
I'm fed up with all this fuss about climate change being some kind of global problem that we can't do anything about. We need to stop blaming ourselves and start taking control of our own destiny. The EU's not going to save us, and neither
The Heat Is On – And So Are We, Not Brussels
Honestly, I’m sick to death of hearing politicians waffle on about the weather. Blaming anyone, whether it’s Brussels or Boris, for a heatwave is just pure distraction. We’re nurses, we see the effects of this stuff every day. People collap
Climate Change Is Real, Stop Blaming Brussels for the Heatwave
Seriously, blaming the EU for a heatwave? That’s the kind of daft, populist nonsense that’s held us back for years. This idea about reclaiming sovereign control of the weather is frankly embarrassing. It’s not 1973 anymore, it’s the era of
Britain should reclaim sovereign control of its own weather. Enough is enough.
Last summer it was 34 degrees in Surrey. Thirty-four. In Surrey. I was born in 1962 and I can tell you categorically that this is not British weather. British weather is 19 degrees and overcast with the threat of a shower. British weather i
End peat extraction for gardening compost by 2027 and fund the transition for UK growers
UK peatlands store around 3 billion tonnes of carbon. That is more than all the forests in Britain, France, and Germany combined. Healthy peatlands slowly accumulate carbon. Drained peatlands release it, continuously, for decades. The gove
What's the point of offshore wind if we still burn gas at home?
Why are we spending billions building massive wind farms out at sea, only to keep relying on burning imported gas for heating and backup power? It makes no sense. We’re basically powering the turbines with one hand and then negating their b
A legal right to clean rivers, enforceable by citizens
In 2023, water companies in England discharged sewage into rivers and seas for over 3.6 million hours. The Environment Agency, which is supposed to prevent this, has had its budget cut by 60% since 2010 and now conducts fewer inspections th
Water companies that dump sewage should lose their licence, not get a fine they can afford
Thames Water discharged raw sewage into rivers for 3.6 million hours in 2023. They were fined a fraction of their revenue. The fine is not a deterrent. It is a business expense. How this should work: 1. Every water company gets a sewage d
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
Replace GDP with a genuine progress indicator that accounts for ecological cost
GDP goes up when we cut down a forest. It goes up when we treat the respiratory diseases caused by the pollution from cutting it down. It goes up when we pay lawyers to argue about who is liable. At no point does GDP register that we have l
Pay farmers for ecological outcomes, not just for having land
The basic payment scheme that replaced EU subsidies paid farmers essentially for owning land. The more land you had, the more you got. A hedge fund that bought 10,000 acres of Lincolnshire received more public money than a hill farmer in Wa
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
Make climate impact assessment mandatory for all new legislation
Every piece of legislation that passes through Parliament has a financial impact assessment. It does not, as standard, have a climate impact assessment. This is an extraordinary omission given that climate change is the single issue most li
NHS needs protection from extreme weather
As a junior doctor I've seen firsthand the impact of extreme weather on our already overstretched NHS. The original proposal to reclaim sovereign control of our weather is laughable, but the underlying concern is valid. We can't control the
