It’s always some sort of apocalypse with the climate cult which requires Other People’s money and government control
From grey water to cool spaces: 10 climate crisis policies Britain needs right now
From record-smashing temperatures, wildfires, hosepipe bans and thousands of premature deaths, the climate crisis has left its mark across the summer of 2026.
Tackling the root cause – the burning of fossil fuels – and ending the crisis will take years. So will fixing the UK government’s calamitous failure to protect lives and livelihoods against the long-predicted affects of global heating.
But the climate emergency is right here, right now, and here are 10 policies that Andy Burnham’s government should consider announcing urgently.
1. Reject drilling licences for the Jackdaw and Rosebank oil and gasfields
Funny how the same people who always recommend this kind of stuff are not giving up their own use of petroleum, be it fuels or eye glasses or jackets
2. Increase windfall tax on fossil fuel giants to pay for adaptation measures
Someone Else’s money. Why won’t the Warmists pay for this stuff themselves?
4. Bring the water industry under national control
The privatised water system has overseen record sewage pollution levels in rivers and seas and presided over a system which critics argue prioritises shareholder dividends, big salaries and bonuses over investing in and maintaining a vital public infrastructure. More than £85bn has gone to shareholders, while the industry has failed to upgrade infrastructure to make it resilient to climate change by building reservoirs, upgrading pipes to stop leaking – a fifth of water running through pipes is lost to leakage – and making sure wastewater treatment plants have capacity for sewage treatment.
Well, the UK government already controls healthcare for the peasants, might as well control all their water. Good way to make they Comply, eh?
10. Encourage regenerative agriculture approaches to increase food resilience
Regenerative farming is an approach to farming that allows the land, soil, water, nutrients and natural assets to regenerate themselves, as opposed to conventional approaches to farming that can deplete these natural resources.
And full control of agriculture. Food. Doesn’t seem shady or authoritarian in the least.
