COP26 – the hypocrites’ jamboree

 TCW

The global elite and their entourages descended from the skies, private jets spewing out over 13,000 tons of carbon, the same amount of CO2 that 1,600 Scots might emit in a year. They moved through wet streets in motorcades, cosseted and confident: no travel bans or self-isolation required for this order.  .....

Our Prime Minister set the tone, using his office of state to preach the word on his recent conversion to the Green Faith. He called on the masses to atone for the ancestral sin of the Industrial Revolution. 

Inspired by the gospel of his current spouse, he has pledged ‘£11.6billion (of our money) to tackling global climate change and in financing climate initiatives around the world’. By Gaia’s hand, he will deliver Net Zero by 2050 and restore the ‘balance between humanity and nature – which is now so grotesquely out of kilter’.  .....The untermensch will own nothing: the countryside will be cleansed of power stations, factories, cars and cattle; gas boilers will be banned and the use of coal and wood fuel proscribed. None will indulge in extravagant foreign holidays, travel or eat impure animal flesh, and we will all ‘be happy’.  ........Now that the assembly is over and delegates are returning to their flocks, Alok Sharma, erstwhile supporter of expanding Heathrow Airport, and the man who selflessly flew to more than 30 countries to prepare for his mission as  COP26 President, is left with the task of bringing together the myriad promises, extortions and fictions into an agreement that puts off dealing with the real issues of global poverty for the next few years.
