From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Paul Homewood<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There appears to be two Telegraphs \u2013 one on Planet Earth, the other in some alternate universe on Planet LaLa Land, where Ambrose Evans-Pritchard regularly writes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week he launched into a bizarre attack on Kemi Badenoch, for what he called her \u201cNet Zero rant\u201d. I have read her speech, and it was a very modest critique, which could and should have been much stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also accuses her of \u201cpitting herself against science\u201d. Whenever anybody says something like this, you know they have lost the argument before it has even started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In LaLa land, of course, Net Zero will make us all thousands of pounds a year better off, create millions of green jobs and free us from the clutches of those wicked petrostate dictators in America and Norway. Instead, we will be ruinously dependent on President Xi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We must believe all of this because the nice men from the IMF and IEA tell us it is true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In LaLa Land, where up is down, and black is white, the rest of the world are busily cutting emissions, so we must not get left behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
