We are a deeply left wing country normally and particularly now. Ridiculous for our Government to lecture the Australians. The height of arrogance and a total misunderstanding of how small a 5 million people country is. Reminds me of a Childs growth stages also apparent in dogs as described by Paige. Non- it is time to start learning Mandarin if you are staying in 新西兰

There is space here Non. We don't yet jail people for thinking differently. AND we don't speak Mandarin.

"Boost for Brexit Britain as Liz Truss says US trade deal is 'in the pipeline' as she announces the UK is applying to join a £9trillion pan-Pacific free trade area next year
The Trade Secretary said that a deal with Washington is 'in the pipeline' Britain wants to join CPTPP tariff-free trade group of Pacific nations Members include Japan, Canada , Vietnam, Australia and New Zealand"www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9207309/Boost-Brexit-Britain-Liz-Truss-says-trade-deal-pipeline.htmlThis is NOT good news. This partnership puts the globalists who run the pan-Pacific free trade agreement in charge of trade regulations for the nations involved NOT the nations' governments. If Biden manages to persuade the RINOs in the Senate to vote for it, then it will be treated as a 'Treaty' and as such is considered superior to the US Constitution and the same globalist billionaires will then run the USA.

cars go a long time.
And the world may be a little cooler by then, sobering.

We are at that stage where I say to myself often- "well if that's the way you want it", and "you'll get whatever you deserve".

I wonder if the power grid can handle the load. Doubt it. My money says that "phase-out" will not actually happen.

There is a saying here that says "this Labour Govt. is so incompetent they can't even waist money". So Young I think you are right I also suspect that winning further terms of Govt. is not a given.

And Spain is not going to allow Scotland into the EU, as they have Catalonia just waiting in the wings. A Sturgeon is a fish, right? And proudly she waves over Besalu. When we were there in 2019, there was a huge banner hanging from the tower stating "EU wake up! Free Our Heros"

Look for a Grand Finale south of the border as the Communists and their Deep State partners hit their stride. The Vandels in Rome never had it so good.

"Ross Clark On The Cost Of Net Zero**
Without question there has been a conspiracy to keep from the public the true cost of Net Zero, and indeed the Climate Change Act leading up to it.
All political parties have connived in it, along with the media, civil service and Committee on Climate Change.
Finally this cover up may be breaking down:
If it involved any other subject, the news that the Government hid estimates of the true cost of one of its policies would be a scandal. Imagine, for example, how bonkers the Guardian would go if it emerged that ministers and civil servants had colluded to conceal their real estimate of the costs of Brexit. But when it emerges that the Treasury withheld what it regarded as the "more realistic" £70 billion a year estimate of the cost of achieving net zero emissions by 2050 there was barely a murmur.
There is a long tradition of dishonesty over the cost of climate change policies. It wasn’t so long ago that the Coalition was implausibly trying to tell us that the Climate Change Act was going to save us money, by creating "green jobs" and saving us from ever-increasing fossil fuel prices. The collapse in oil and gas prices in 2014 put paid to that pretence, and when Theresa May’s government upped the legally-binding target contained in the act from an 80 per cent cut by 2050 to net zero emissions by that date the then chancellor, Philip Hammond, did quietly admit it would cost us £50 billion a year. But it now transpires that officials, even at the time, thought that an under-estimate."More here: notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2021/03/05/ross-clark-on-the-cost-of-net-zero/#more-49607and here: www.thegwpf.com/brits-were-mislead-about-cost-of-net-zero/** Net Zero == the equivalent of the Green New Deal in US - only less logical than AOC's version.
