You And Tangled Webs

It is usual to find the Left supporting entirely contradictory positions, as putting ideology before reality as they do is a recipe for disaster. Some birds take a while longer to come home to roost. The Global Warming religion was useful for the Left as it simultaneously addressed a desire to hate ourselves as over mighty Man and to also believe that Man, in the form of clever Lefties would resolve the problem. This resolution was their second desire; to shut down Western civilisation and its economic roots.

This is why 'the debate is settled', the BBC should not allow debate on air and opposition to Global Warming must see you classed as a nutter. But as bills go up it has become personal and the electorate are getting restless. They are asking questions, the questions that the Left have outlawed. The people can see how shallow and unsubstantiated arguments of the Left are, when the best they are able to say is 'it is, because I say it is' and 'you cannot oppose us'.

So, Cameron, in thrall to Green policies as much as any other who skips thinking, trots along to accuse the energy companies of charging too much. That they are is also due to government not being bothered to do its job properly, but Cameron is not looking to blame himself and the companies are hardly likely to say that they do it because he doesn't control them well enough.

No they are arguing the highly plausible and partly correct point that it is green taxes and costs that are driving bills up. Cameron didn't want that in the light of day either and Chris Huhne will be livid. Something he is responsible for being questioned, how dare they! Obviously no sane person would put up a wind turbine unless someone guaranteed to pay for it and its operating costs, making it a money tree rather than a business proposition.

So we all pay vastly increased bills, to suit Cameron's and Huhne's version of politics, which is based on lies and a false premise. All of these costs could be taken off our shoulders at the stroke of a pen and have no consequences whatsoever. But none of this explains the enhanced profits these foreign owned, energy companies are making. (Interestingly, many of these companies come to Britain to buy such infrastructure organisations, as in their own countries they are more closely controlled and profits commensurately less).

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.
