Whatever you think of ICAN, their track record of holding American governments to account for medical evils is pretty good, and they do seem to be independent of questionable funding.

They must be getting bored with American targets because now they are taking aim at the UK government and ARIA (Advanced Research and Innovation Agency) that is currently innovating new ways to save the UK population from the terrible predations of that great ball of fire in the sky, the Sun.

Yes, we Brits have been geoengineering our chemtrails for years, but now we know who is doing it! Or if they are not actually doing it themselves, who is supposed to be guiding it. I'm guessing that they would subcontract the actual operations.

When we can't heat our homes next winter because there is no electricity to heat the water or drive the heat pump or fire the gas/oil boiler, who will be blamed?

Will it be the wind for not blowing? Or the sun for not shining? Or the interconnects from our neighbours who decided that they needed their electricity more than we did? Or maybe it will be the elderly for being too numerous, or for turning on their heating for too long, or for cooking food and boiling water for tea rather than having a cold sandwich in the dark?

Or will it be the politicians who drove us purposefully into fuel poverty in their insane quest to eliminate all combustion from our generating capacity (but who will no doubt have had the cash the foresight and the available space to install an emergency generator)?

And when the pipes freeze and burst due to winter cold and the phones are out due to no internet, will our p

If we thought the EV industry in the West was bad, maybe the BYD situation in China is worse. Is this the result of the Donald's tariff policies?

Probably not entirely, although it does seem to be coincidental.

Still, Chinese companies' accounts can be as creative as anywhere else...

... and President' Xi's leadership may not be all it has been cracked up to be...

But Worse.

In the 1800s the Highland Clearances of the crofters (to make way for more profitable sheep-farming) took place, leading to a forced exodus of crofters to the new world, or anywhere they could still scratch a living.

Today we face not the local threat that confronted the crofters, but compound global threats:

an employment threat - we will be displaced by AI from the work that we have traditionally undertaken - and

an entirely real threat from the fantasists who push the entirely false threat of climate doom from CO₂, and are intent on rewilding our food production streams (farms to you and me) that we need in order to eat.

So

Although the Net Zero bandwagon is now coming off the rails globally, our myopic government is still committed to crashing what remains of our economy, impoverishing our population, obeying every edict from the unaccountable WEF-UN partnership, and wondering why Reform is so popular.

Must we wait until the lights go out before anybody does something about this? Or perhaps their solution is to bypass the whole issue by goading Russia into an all-out war (conventional or otherwise), oblivious of the small matter that war needs reliable energy and plenty of it?

The Net Zero Straitjacket summarises.

We are familiar by now with the notion that the UN has Agendas (21, 25, 30 etc) even if we are not totally familiar with the details.

We are also familiar with the World Economic Forum whose royalty and immensely rich plutocrats and influencers meet annually in Davos to consider how they might rule the world through their "partnership" with the UN.

Of course neither of these organisations are in any way democratic - but they control enough money to fund networks of NGOs and influencers in countries around the world, that certainly in the UK have managed to persuade every major political party to adopt their "Green" Agendas, thereby "saving the world".

With every political party in their pocket (not to mention compliant press and media outlets), who needs democracy?

Now that the ridiculous costs of these agendas are becoming apparent to the public, the cracks are beginning to become so obvious that the public

Dr Benny Peiser, erstwhile leader of the Global Warming Policy Foundation, interviewed by John Robson .

With the advancing collapse of acceptance of the narrative in the face of deep damage incoming to the people's prosperity, it is perhaps only slightly premature to review the story of the latest attempt to inflict big government command and control (AKA communism) on the world.

This is another magnum opus, a work birthed for our time when confidence in the ancien regime is collapsing on many sides, andfew sensible peoplecare to predict how matters may resolve themselves.

"... how scared the senior police are at the prospect of crucial psychological spells being broken"

Now let me say straight up that I'm not necessarily agreeing or indeed disagreeing with much that he says in this piece, but it's value certainly lies in it being the views of somebody who was very senior in government at a time of great national crisis - he is informed by his personal experiences of how government may react, he has done time in the system.

That said, no two crises are identical, so "this time things may be different". Or not.

Whatever we may think of the man, his views are likely informative at some useful level.

Ben's report today reviews the steps being taken (or appearing to be taken) to move the world forward into a new world order without irreparably breaking it in the process.

The orderly path to a new financial commercial and military global settlement clearly isn't straightforward, but those who pull the stings behind the scenes do at least seem to be talking still.

On the other hand, the necessary changes will of necessity involve some much-trailed level of disorder, so fear not, life is in little danger of becoming dull and predictable any time soon.

The EU has been flirting with nuclear power for years - but mighty Germany has been determinedly anti nuclear ever since the tsunami washed into Fukushima.

But since the Putin-Trump telephone call it seems that it has begun to dawn, even on German politicians, that the Dunkelflaute may not have what it takes to resurrect German industry in recreating the necessary armaments industries to face up to the challenge from the East.

All of which is a welcome if unexpected outbreak of good sense (even if for all the wrong reasons) since if both Germany and France support nuclear then that's probably enough to sway the rest of the EU block.

And it leaves Ed Milliband in an even

Citizens' assemblies are simply assemblies of citizens. Of course they are assemblies for a purpose, as are all assemblies.

And they have to be funded... advertising, room hire, presentation equipment and materials all cost money, although not necessarily vast amounts - nevertheless the overall cost of assemblies in every town is not insignificant.

I have attended one such myself, on how best to encourage net zero measures in our locality, and where would be best to site them. I went along (a) for the experience and (b) to see how must sense I would be able to contribute. Yes, it was an instructive experience and no, not much sense was permitted, on the grounds that it was a Net Zero meeting and it's purpose was not to argue the case for or against, since that outcome was already established.

I was therefore in the wrong meeting. Not that there was any right meeting arranged where I might have fitted in. Of course I could have called my own "right

"The UK’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA), established in 2023 with an £800 million purse of taxpayer funds, received a burst of publicity last week when it was unveiled that the agency was planning to “dim the sun” to fight global warming"

Well, they are late to the party because we have been watching the dimming of the sun in our English skies for years already - the photo above was taken in 2022.

And if "they" were not doing it, who was? Will we be seeing a new battle in the skies above us as rival sun-dimming outfits fight it out for the right to stop global warming in its tracks?

Ed Milliband has a problem - even the already agreed off-shore wind projects must be regarded as questionable given that the Hornsea 4 project has just been announced ditched and dead in the water.

"The combination of increased supply chain costs, higher interest rates and increased execution risk have deteriorated the expected value creation of the project"

Ah well, back to the drawing board...

Well, it may not be that simple, but maybe it is associated with the management of power fluctuations in a grid which has little to no inertial generators.

Once the initial fluctuation wasn't sufficiently corrected, the grid turned itself off to protect itself from further damage. It's not a simple as that because there probably wasn't a single switch - different parts of the grid would turn off "independently" but trigger adjacent parts to do likewise, resulting in a cascade effect.

This for now seems to be what is being suggested rather than being the result of a formal investigation.

Top for what?

Top for cost, top for inefficiency, top for tax-payer subsidies, top for grid transmission costs, top for ecological destruction, top for government propaganda...  need I go on?

"... a peer-reviewed analysis of full-system levelized costs of competing power sources shows wind power is seven times more expensive than natural gas power and solar power is 10 times more expensive... "

Now I realise that I am likely preaching to the converted (converted as in realisation of the truth, as opposed to realisation of the heat-pump, whilst recognising that the former need not exclude the latter).

But it seems that there are still many global-warmists out there who implicitly believe everything that gets extruded from the vast networks of UN-WEF-affiliated think-tanks, charitable (as in untaxed) institutions, NGOs, and pseudo-populist lobby groupings that seem to have sprung from nowhere to

The many manifestly idiotic delusions associated with the drive to save the world by the elimination of the gas of life might be sufferable were they to be at least sensibly arguable, but as many are beyond the reach of rational thought, there comes a point at which the inner human must for sanity's sake emit a silent thought-scream - "Please just MAKE IT STOP!".

However as I am conscious that 'we all know' that the Green agenda is vital for the extinction of humanity before the world reaches another 1.5^oC (I may not have that exactly right - it may have been changed to 2^oC whilst I had a momentary lapse of attention - but it somehow feels right) I must draw attention to another unforeseen obstaclewhich I'm sure requires urgent research and investigation lest it impede the important onward march toward green technocracy (donations please to the usual address, and don't

The last working blast-furnace in the UK is going down.

Can nothing be done to save it?

Short of shipping it to China (where cheap coal is abundant) as a free gift, probably not.

After all, it requires coking coal that it could have had locally from a proposed mine in Whitehaven - but that conflicted with the Government's Net Zero policy so it couldn't.

So instead of giving it a viable source of supply, the government in its infinite wisdom sought to give the Chinese owners a £500m bung (for a totally impracticable "conversion to green energy") if they would only take the problem off its hands, an offer which the Chinese, being sensible businessmen (whether also CCP spies or not), could plainly see wouldn't make the business viable.
