Intro by Steve Cook
When Labour got elected with the vote of just one citizen in five, it was painfully evident that its mission as a front group for the parasitic globalist crime syndicate was to finish the destruction of the UK so dedicatedly begun by that other globalist front group the Conservative Party.
And, sure enough, that destruction of the UK continues apace with the Labour Party doing everything it can to wipe out our economy and crush any vestiges of morale or prosperity as quickly as possible before people wake up and they face the wrath of an enraged citizenry.
Of course, they have to pretend they are doing something else: they cannot openly declare themselves enemies of the nation on a mission to destroy it so the operation is hidden behind a smokescreen of “saving the environment”, “carbon zero” or some such gobbledygook.
But let’s make no mistake here: the people of the United Kingdom are under attack from their subverted/hijacked government. The attack will continue to be dressed up as something-or-other “for your own good” but the actual result will be destruction. It is no coincidence for example that millions of pensioners had their winter fuel allowance cancelled just before winter sets in and in tandem with yet another hike in energy bills, a move guaranteed to demoralise, impoverish and probably kill many. Neither is the fact that the UK now has the highest electricity costs on the planet just some sort of unavoidable mishap. It is engineered that way. If other countries can have affordable electricity then so can the UK unless the people running its government don’t want it to.
The following excerpt from a much longer and very informative article (which you can read here) summarises very aptly the skullduggery to which you are being subjected by political fronts for creatures who despise you.
[W]hen we turn to electricity prices, the UK is woefully uncompetitive in both industrial and domestic markets with the highest prices among the 28 countries covered by the IEA. This level of price differential is an existential threat to the economy. Moreover, with gas prices around the median level, it cannot be gas that is driving the UK’s electricity prices well above those of international competitors.
As discussed previously (here and here), it is the ~£11bn of renewables subsidies, £4.6bn of carbon taxes in the form of the Emissions Trading Scheme, £2.5bn of grid balancing costs and £1bn of capacity market costs that are driving electricity prices skywards. There is an extra £112bn of transmission network costs in the pipeline to connect remote, intermittent renewables to the grid that will continue to push up prices.
Sadly, the Government has made a decarbonised grid by 2030 one of its five missions for Government. Pushing even more renewables on to the grid is bound to increase electricity costs even further, crushing our competitiveness. This is in direct contradiction to Labour’s number one mission of increasing economic growth. As discussed earlier, these two missions are incompatible; we cannot have top tier growth with the highest electricity prices in the developed world.
Having the highest electricity prices in the world ought to trigger a national emergency response. The Government’s primary mission should be to cut energy prices because cheap energy is the key to unlocking growth. They should focus first on ending subsidies for renewables and cancelling any further auction rounds. This would stop the rot at source. Second, they should abolish the Emissions Trading Scheme to bring down the cost of gas-fired generation. The Government would then need to invest in new sources of gas supply by encouraging more North Sea drilling and lifting the moratorium on fracking. In the longer term, there should be a renewed focus on nuclear in the form of conventional reactors, small modular reactors (SMRs) and advanced reactors. These will need to be supplemented by gas-fired generation for the time being until nuclear is able to respond effectively to rapid changes in demand.
We can but hope that reality dawns on the Government before the economy collapses under the weight of Net Zero.
STOP PRESS: We’re going to have to wait a long time for reality to dawn because the Government announced on Friday plans to spend £22bn of our money on carbon capture and storage which will reduce efficiency and push up the costs of gas-fired electricity even further. Will the last person to leave Britain please blow out the candles, because there won’t be any lights left to switch off.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
