Brits will need to get heat pumps, electric cars and even eat less meat to hit Keir Starmer‘s new climate target, advisers have warned.
Nope. Not doing it. I will not lift a finger to help with this insane crusade. Indeed, I will do everything in my power to frustrate it. If I want to eat meat, I will do so. I will not – ever – buy an EV and I will not – ever- install a heat pump. As the one with the the wallet in this equation, I have the power to decline and like thousands of others I will do do. Surely, the collapse of the EV and heat pump market and risible failure of their targets should have told them this?
However, the government’s Climate Change Committee (CCC) – which originally laid out the aim – has made clear that other changes, such more vegetarian and vegan diets and less travel, would also be needed.
Not doing it. I also happen to live with a Ukrainian who doesn’t seem to understand the concept of vegetarianism.
‘We need to get technologies into people’s homes so they can use the electricity. What we’re looking for is progress on heat decarbonisation and transport decarbonisation and renewables.’
As it’s my home, I will decide what technology comes in and what does not.
Ms Pinchbeck said the ‘secret weapon technologies for the next decade are heat pumps and electric vehicles’.
Well, it’s not very secret and how is that strategy going? Oh, yeah, no fucker wants them.
Pressed yesterday on what Brits would have to do to hit the target, the PM said: ‘What we’re not going to do is start telling people how to live their lives. We’re not going to start dictating to people what they do.’
That is exactly what they are trying to do. Starmer can fuck off. I didn’t vote for him, he has no business being in the highest office in the land and I will not do anything to aid his insane ideas. Funny how I was saying much the same thing twenty years ago when a Labour government wanted to foist identity cards on us. Nothing changes…
While simultaneously decommissioning all the power stations.
For TTK, this counts as joined-up thinking.
First major power cut will put an end to this nonsense by the second week.
The first major power cut will be blamed on climate change, and a huge number of people will believe it
Unfortunately, I suspect you will be correct. See how blindly people believe that the fascists won the US election and there will be control over women’s bodies. We live in an idiocracy.
All by design.
Fail to educate, succeed in indoctrinating the kids, and then every lame leftist control attempt stands a chance at success.
My lad actually had to watch ‘an inconvenient truth’ seven times in one week when he was in the second year. And that was at an independent school!
Hopefully the fuss about power cuts will lead to the power stations being kept in operation ‘just for the duration of the emergency!!’
Labour have been telling people how to live their lives for decades. Sadly, enough have started listening again when they should know better.
On the subject of power cuts, this is an interesting read:

Further to what myself and others have been saying about joined up government promoting electric cars and heat pumps while at the same time wrecking the power supply.

The PM said: “What we’re not going to do is start telling people how to live their lives.”
You’re doing it already you lying moron.
Spot on!
Telling people how to live their lives is in the DNA of socialism. It wouldn’t be socialism otherwise.
Could be argued that objectively 2TK doesn’t have a mandate to implement such traumatic changes. How many people actually voted for his lot?
9,708,716. And the registered electorate is 48.2m, so 20%-ish.
Or, as a proportion of the total population (just over 69m), 14%. Very nearly one in seven of us.
Buy shares in gruel and singlets for the po-faced Zealots That Be will not be happy until we all break our fast on gruel and then perform community calisthenics in our singlets.
I don’t expect to see 2TK or any of the other Cabinet members doing the same however.
The average British house is simply incompatible with a cunt pump – a device for scavenging low grade heat – as it is simply not adequately insulated (I think cunt pumps also are not helped by damp air either). New builds with cunt pumps will need to be substantially better insulated. This goes particularly for new builds, so unless these houses are, they will in effect be lumbered with very expensive and inefficient balls and chains.
And what about flats?
As for milk floats!
As for going mentally ill (aka veganism)!!!
My wallet is so well hidden from these lunacies, Indiana Jones wouldn’t be able to find it.
My wallet is similarly out of sight and triple locked.
As the one with the the wallet in this equation, I have the power to decline and like thousands of others I will do so.
I applaud this maxim, live by this maxim, but how long before the Powers That Be, of the entrenched lefty kind, decide we no longer have this power?
“decide we no longer have this power?”
The way they’ve made drugs unavailable, and are soon to make tobacco likewise?
There’ll always be someone to fix or replace your boiler, just lacking on paperwork.
Mr. Tuttle or Mr. Buttle…
