Starmer's government is now going balls to the walls in Watermelon idiocy that makes the Germans look like slowpokes.

They just banned the issuance of all oil drilling permits in the North Sea. Including those in process. And British oil production is already at an all time low:



And they are going to put millions of solar panels on rooftops as well as construct three massive solar farms.

Problem is, this is even stupider than using solar in Germany.



That is just available solar output they can possibly collect. Part of that problem is intermittency that effects their overall capacity.



And then wind. They are going to allow super large windmills on land. 830' tall ones. Same kind they have offshore. But the wind blows in the north of England, while British industry is in the south. So what are they going to do?

Charge way more for electricity in the south in order to force relocation of industry to the north. But if a steel mill has to relocate, they will look at all options worldwide. Opps!

Last, and the best, the Watermelons are going make climate denialism a hate speech crime and prosecute the shit out of everyone who commits it as possible. Including bitching about this. Nice eh?
