Rachel Reeves finally wakes up to reality!

Rachel Reeves shoots down Ed Miliband madness at last​

The job has fallen to Chancellor Rachel Reeves, who has belatedly woken up to the damage the net zero fanatic is inflicting on the UK economy.
For most of us, the threat was clear within days of last year's election, when Miliband banned new North Sea oil and gas drilling projects.
The UK relies on fossil fuels for 78% of our energy, mostly imported at huge cost. This explains our lousy balance of trade and why manufacturing is collapsing across the UK. Our energy costs are already four times higher than in the US, making UK business horribly uncompetitive and households colder and poorer.
Miliband's plan to end domestic oil and gas production before renewables are able to fill the gap will make us poorer still. It may even trigger blackouts.
No economy can grow in the dark.
Green loon Miliband thinks the UK can generate 100% of its power from renewables like wind and solar by 2030, though he's since trimmed that to 95%.
Today, we're getting just 1% of our power from wind due to adverse meteorological conditions, known as the Dunkelflaute. Basically, the wind isn't blowing. The sun isn't shining much either.
This doesn't worry Miliband, but it does worry Reeves.
The Chancellor is feeling the heat. She's realised you can't grow the economy by issuing self-righteous press releases, slapping more taxes on businesses or throwing billions at unreformed public services. She's also woken up to the fact that economic growth is impossible while energy costs remain punitively high. And she's woken up to the threat posed by Red Ed.
No government on earth is sabotaging its own energy production like Miliband has been. It's economic suicide. His unworldly idiocy has been brought into sharp focus by President Donald Trump, who wants the US to drill and frack all it can.
Yesterday Miliband declared net zero "unstoppable" but Reeves now takes a different view. She's made it clear that growth trumps everything including emissions targets and is "the number one mission of this government."

So, when was Milliband PM?

So, when was Milliband PM?

He never was. He is currently Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero.

He never was. He is currently Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero.

But then again, the PM chooses who that person is, and in theory should be saying what can and cannot happen under his rule.

You are 100% right , imho .
We are following the US once again -- being led by a Deep State extremist .
Our Sir Queer Harmer , the closet Gay , is as much WEF and Deep State as Biden's handlers were .

OK, the Tories were a mess while in power , but until the Team GB Sheeple wake up , Sir Queer and his Mutant team will do untold damage if permitted .

Vote Reform you British people . If only on the basis that Nigel Farage is such an improvement on the Queer Harmer . Exactly as per the choice between Trumpf and his idiot opponent .
