Elon Musk says he’ll take a million people to Mars as backup against the collapse of civilisation - while he’s installing politicians who’ll kill net zero: Trump, Advance UK (after Reform UK), AfD. What's going on? Blog/tips https://ko-fi.com/mikebradyuk

They didn’t question why Musk, the EV guy, backed a climate change liar for President.

Why he said vote Reform UK & AfD when they too will kill net zero.

Or notice how DOGE threats led the FAA to clear his exploding Starships for launch.

Or that Musk fell out with Trump over who is NASA Director.
Apparently Rachel Reeves is considering removing VAT from energy bills – which will preferentially reward those using more energy.

Better to tax emissions and and use the income to pay an allowance to everyone covering their fair share. This rewards those who use less and prompts behaviour change.

Instead of rewarding people who use more energy, Rachel Reeves could do the following:

Tax emissions, use the income to pay everyone an allowance covering their fair share of emissions and, voila, you end child poverty, reduce income inequality, hit CO2 targets and it’s fiscally neutral.

Each of the top 1% produces 11 times the CO2 emissions of someone in the bottom 50% says OXFAM.

Why not do this instead?

An effective way to make those who produce more than their fair share of emissions pay money to those who produce less, while incentivising an overall reduction in emissions.

If you believe in the survival of the human race, you have to believe in the transition to renewable energy because fossil fuels will inevitably run out.

It makes sense to make the transition now, while we still have fossil fuels for backup and can stabilise the climate.

Embrace the moment.
Climate change in a nutshell.

Finally Laura Kuenssberg talks to someone about climate change, with passing reference to the COP climate change meeting in two weeks.

Fail to stand up to Trump and we pass the point of 1.5 deg. C temperature rise very soon.

Debate that rather than who might win the general election in 2029.

The real reason Elon Musk fell out with Trump is revealed in the post Musk made just 25 minutes before dropping the “really big bomb” claiming Trump is in the Epstein Files.

Like all media coverage, this misses the real reason Musk fell out with Trump.

When you think about it, going hard on the net-zero agenda would undo the attack on the government on many other fronts.

Something that became clear when I was considering local opposition to a Battery Energy Storage System.
Should the community support a new renewable energy storage system?

Great Guardian article. ⬇️

I think the counter to the Broken Britain narrative should be that we stand on the verge of a golden age if we can just grasp it and keep the wreckers from power.

We can achieve net zero and sustainability, which secures the future.

Musk and his proxies see collapse.
This is a great article.

Musk has again posted “Only AfD can save Germany”.

Where are the commentators and politicians asking why the EV guy wants to install a party that will kill net zero in Germany, just as he installed Trump in the US?

It’s something I’ve been analysing since before Trump’s inauguration.
Now that Kemi Badenoch is stepping up her attacks on immigrants to gain the attention of Elon Musk, will someone ask her if she agrees that Musk can claim Mars as a free planet outside of Earth jurisdiction for his independent Martian civilisation?

Starmer’s government rejected this months ago.

Consider the disease, wars, tyranny, inequality, misogyny, slavery, short lifespans, ignorance, distance to drinking water, cold and darkness of past centuries and you must conclude we live in a golden age.

See the forces destroying what has been achieved and you realise how fragile it may be.
Something to read when you have a moment.

As it’s less than three weeks to the COP Climate Change Conference in Brazil, the media will no doubt be unpacking this for the public and calling for considered responses from other parties.

Sorry, they’re debating who will win the 2029 General Election.

Kemi Badenoch, leader of the UK Conservative Party, will be pleased to be reposted on X today by Elon Musk.

She showed she was after his touted USD 100 million donation by coming out against net zero.

She should be ashamed of cosying up to the Mars fantasist.
Elon Musk is again posting that civil war in the UK is inevitable.

Remember, Musk catalysed the rise of the far right.

My article prior to the Runcorn and Helsby by-election with his posts. Sarah Pochin won – and was in the news this week for complaining about black and Asian people in adverts.
Another Prime Minister’s Questions and nothing on government strategy for the COP Climate Change Conference in less than three weeks.

Will Starmer coordinate or, at least, join, a coalition of the willing to isolate and contain President Trump’s ridiculous regime?
Farage gave us Brexit and all that comes from it: smaller GDP, friction at the border, small boats and the Boriswave of immigration. While throwing away our EU citizenship and Euro and Schengen opt outs.

Maybe voters should think things through before being suckered by the guy again.
