It’s a tough call.
When you’ve got to make the greatest advertising pitch ever, which trusted telly figure do you call in to convince the proles that they’ve got to give up their cars, home heating and food to save the planet for the private jet class?
UK’s PM Rishi Sunak, when he’s not pandering to Islamists, is busy figuring out how to convince his own voting base to lay down and die.
Rishi Sunak needs all the help he can get selling his green vision to the British public… The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero has tapped up a consumer insights firm to identify “trusted messengers” to carry Sunak’s green message to voters.
Researchers on the contract, worth around £80,000, will be asked to establish exactly who can be trusted to make the case for the contentious issues at the heart of the U.K.’s green overhaul.
Veteran environmentalist David Attenborough is the most trusted figure with the public to discuss climate change, according to 2021 polling by the organization Climate Outreach, followed by fellow TV conservationist Chris Packham — then Prince William.
Considering Dave’s 97 years old, they better hurry and sign him to a lifetime contract to explain in his sonorous voice why everyone has to be deported to gulags to save the planet.
And yes, there’s Prince William. Who better than a guy with not just private jets, but castles, to explain to the peasants why they should live in a single room of a collective apartment and eat gruel. “Please sir, may I have some more green gruel?”
Energy Secretary Claire Coutinho previously told POLITICO politicians must brace for “difficult” conversations with voters about the changes brought with the green switch.
Here’s a sample of her difficult conversations.
What about the levy Gary Smith, GMB union chief, calls the energy poll tax – a £170 surcharge on all energy bills, irrespective of wealth? ‘We want to protect poorer families. We do, through things like the welfare system. But there are only certain mechanisms where you can raise money which we then spend, for example, on renewables. Ultimately, the whole way we have got to do it is progress, make sure we have got enough clean power but also protect families. With the two policies that we changed, there was no way round it for all those families. They would have to spend thousands of pounds – whether on their boilers or a car. There was no mechanism for us to help them with that.’
Anyway, best to stick with William to scold the peasants.
At this weekend’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, Prince William marked the occasion by lecturing his grandmother’s subjects on the ‘pressing need to protect and restore our planet’…
Clearly, Prince William does not intend to make many sacrifices of his own to reduce humanity’s impact on the climate. He arrived at the Jubilee party, as the royals often do, in a helicopter.
Environmentalism is a romantic anti-industrial movement wearing the borrowed cloak of science whose mission is to bring back feudalism and destroy technological progress. Who better to make a case for feudalism than a prince?
Freeze and Starve over aa totally fake threat? Tell the Greens to Take a Hike
Not a fake threat. Climate change is real. The evidence is plentiful and easily available. Greenfield here is conning you. Don’t fall for it.
do your part to save the planet by self-euthanizing yourself, STAT!
Yeah, he should head to a fertilizer plant.
Even IF “climate change” is real, we are not going along with all these plans..
Of course climate change is real, Mister Mickorn. Any first year geology student can tell you that. The earth has been around for 4 billion years after all, so certainly the climate has changed every now and then. What’s not real is a scientific certainty as to what causes these changes to occur. Sure there are theories, hypothesis, and speculation to explain it. And then there are the politically motivated “experts” who like to tell us that we’re just anti-science. It’s not anti-science to question the academic “authorities” If you try to tell me two plus two equals five, it’s not anti-science to say that your answer is wrong.
Earth is heading for its next ice age. Very slowly but surely. The only deviation of average global temperature for the last 27 years (1997 was a stand alone year marginally hotter than previous and successive years) is measured in thousandths of a single degree fahrenheit…..colder.
Newsflash Granola Bar Muncher in the 1970’s it was Global Cooling and New Ice age Time and Newsweek was giving it Top Coverage and a 1978 Episode of In Search Of was all about it including the Hard Winter of 1976/77 that hit Buffalo New York
The simple facts that prove global climate warming change is fake are what are easily available.
Average global temperature hasn’t deviated by a single degree fahrenheit in 27 years, CO2 doesn’t heat air, plants need carbon for cellular growth and just to survive, which they extract from CO2 and release the oxygen for fauna and humans to breathe (they also get carbon from fungi in exchange for minerals via their roots,) the current Co2 level is much lower than it was in the ice ages, which is part of the reason there were ice ages, “climate” is not a synonym for “weather” despite what semi-literate lefties think, and all the Earth’s climates are unchanged; the tropics are still hot and humid, the temperate zones are still temperate, the deserts are still hot and arid, the Southern and Northern lattitudes are still cold in their Winters and the poles are still frozen solid year round.
And the world would be better off if it were warmer, just like it was in all the previous warming periods in history: the Mycenaean warming period, the Roman warming period and the Middle Age warming period. In the Roman warming period, the Romans grew citrus trees in Northern England. A warming period would be the biggest boon to farming possible.
You anti-science lefties are morons and monsters. Only morons believe the hoax and are ignorant of seventh grade level chemistry, satellite temperature readings that are accurate to 10,000th of a single degree fahrenheit, and reject personal experience with stable weather. Only evil America hating scum and anti-white racists know the truth but support restrictions on Western countries (particularly America) designed to incapacitate them while China, India and the Turd World get free passes. And even the evil people who know the truth are morons because if they were to get their way, the whole world would suffer from America’s decline, even the scummy countries which would be exempt from penalties.
Stupid jackass.
It IS a tough call. David Attenborough is a great narrator and is one of the millions of suckers who’ve fallen for the global climate warming scam, so h’ed be a convincing spokesman for green feudalism.
I have no idea who Chris Packham is and don’t want to.
Yep. Prince William would be the best choice. If Britain’s government is going to sell out its citizens, it should go all the way to the top with the Royal Family. And the feudal angle would be hilarious. He could give his public addresses in front of a warm fireplace in Buckingham Palace while being waited on by servants while he sips tea. Maybe Tommy Robinson could crash it and yell out “Green gruel is people!”
I guess the “Conservative” (my ass) party and King Charles (I still can’t get used to that) got exactly who they wanted when Chuck (Who rivals Obama for world’s biggest jug ears) appointed Rishi Sunak as PM; an elitist banker and unctious politician who can always be counted on for hypocrisy and empty rhetoric. Nobody bribes the proles better than him. And he’s a minority! A white guy of Indian descent instead of a white guy of English descent. A “historic” first.
If the Conservative party were actually conservative and actually gave a shit about any Brits except the Royals and the aristocratic moneyed interests, they’d have nominated Kemi Badenoch. She was sneeringly described as “one of the least experienced of the candidates in the very first sentence of a BBC short bio, as if that’s a drawback rather than an asset.
Maybe Prince William will be invited to come sell Americans on Alzheimer Joe. They’re both good at spending other people’s money.
Dickie did more than “fall for the scam”…he actively perpetrated it when he got caught faking one of his Birdie Doccos a while back? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2254131/Sir-David-Attenborough-forced-explain-animals-filmed-wild-new-BBC-documentary-fakery-row.html
“Birdie Doccos”???????
Figure it out, birdbrain. The rest of us had no problem doing so.
Well, since Dickie knows global climate warming change is the biggest scam in history and actively abets it, that makes him one of the EVIL morons who want to incapacitate Western countries, even his own and particularly America. Evil because he wants people in the best countries to suffer and stupid because the whole world would suffer if America were to be incapacitated.
Attenborough got knocked down by a angry grouse
The Big Green Lie
End the Monarchy now.
The EU capitals are filled with tractors and cow manure from the proletariat, so I doubt very much that a speech from a “royal” will sway the British peasants into sacrificing on the green altar. If the french are turning up their collective noses to it, my bet is the UK will show them how to do it correctly.
Just know folks that the ones telling you to give up everything will not be giving up anything. The key point here that all us peasants must understand is that the powerful, wealthy and elite will not be affected in the slightest by the policies and misery they force on us.
First – I am a American citizen, but I do have deep roots in Britain, and – make what of it you will – second, rather related to the Royal Family. But, without a doubt, if the Royals get on board for this – the monarchy needs to be dropped in the trash can. They. like the political class that currently infest the United Kingdom will have completely turned their backs on the native people of Britain. They do not deserve anything – but digust.
My family chased the damned Limeys back to their island
So did mine on the maternal side. And another one was a farmer in New Jersey who sold beef cattle and grains to the Revolutionary Army and the British Army both. He had to sell to the British or they’d have just taken his stock but he gave our guys a discount and gouged the Redcoats, ha haw!.
