Dear Supporter,
They’ve tried to shut us down; they’ve tried to get it stopped but
the Vote Power Not Poverty campaign is on a march to Bolton next
Saturday and here is why I need you to join us.
The Net Zero agenda is the biggest silent rip off in Britain
today.
We’re told it’s about reducing CO2 and if that were true, we might
not mind so much, but it isn’t.
Even before prices go through the roof, 25% of your electricity
bills go towards green subsidies and environmental expenditure. What
those bills don’t tell you though is who benefits from that 25% –
giant, foreign multinationals and rich landowners here in the UK who
get paid to have ineffective wind turbines put onto their estates.
The Net Zero delusion is nothing more than a few rich, privileged
people thinking that by importing half of the gas that Britain needs,
by importing up to 10% of our electricity from France, by importing
increasing amounts of oil and coal, somehow, they’re saving the
planet.
Bowing down to a teenager called Greta, who has no scientific
background whatsoever, they’re perfectly happy for our heavy
industries to move out to China and India because they believe that
they’re reducing carbon dioxide output; they’re not - they’re simply
outsourcing it.
The real problem with that now is that the Russian invasion of
Ukraine has changed the world and it isn’t going to go back for many,
many years.
If we rely on France to sell us electricity, on Putin, Norway, or
Qatar to sell us natural gas, there could come a point when genuine
shortages mean that those countries choose to look after
themselves.
In a very different world, our energy security becomes more vital
than ever. We need to be self-sufficient in energy.
The UK should be a net exporter of energy, not a net importer.
Under our feet we have an estimated £1trillion of natural gas, some
experts predict under current prices it could be as much as
£2trillion. That would be a value of gas equal to the size of our
national debt.
By exploiting that, rather than buying gas from Mr Putin or from
elsewhere, we can produce our own natural gas and alongside that, tens
of thousands of well-paid jobs.
We have real solutions, real alternatives to the Net Zero madness
that are essential if we’re to provide the secure, self-reliant future
that Britain needs.
Next Saturday morning in Bolton, 26th March, I’ll be speaking
alongside Richard Tice, Julia Hartley-Brewer, Graham Stringer MP and
Dominique Samuels. Together, we will be demanding a referendum on Net
Zero.
I need you to come and support us. If you can help me to send that
message to Westminster then we will get the change we need.
It’s time to Vote Power Not Poverty. It’s time to play your
part.
Many Thanks,
Nigel Farage
Honorary President of Reform UK
