Miliband needs certifying!
From the Telegraph:
Ed Miliband has bankrolled plans to make vegan supplements on the site of the former Grangemouth oil refinery in Scotland.
.
The Energy Secretary announced £1.5m of taxpayer support for the project on Thursday, which will produce “fish-free” Omega 3 from algae.
Mialgie is the vegan supplements business behind the scheme, which is the first government-backed project at Grangemouth since Ineos shut down the refinery earlier this year.
The closure led to more than 400 jobs being lost at the site, sparking outrage from unions and MPs alike.
However, the plan was dismissed by critics who said the site would be better placed as an oil refinery.
It comes after the closure of the Lindsey oil refinery in Lincolnshire earlier this year, piling more pressure on the country’s energy security as it moves towards net zero.
Richard Tice, the deputy leader of Reform UK, said: “Nations become rich from plentiful cheap oil and gas, not from Omega 3 supplements. This highlights the job-destroying madness of net stupid zero.”
Claire Coutinho, the shadow energy secretary, also dismissed the plans: “It’s all very good to have fish-free fish oil, but what the country really needs is refining capacity.
“Britain has lost a third of our refineries this year and they are collapsing under sky-high energy costs and carbon taxes thanks to Labour’s policies.”

As usual the Telegraph commenters are on the ball:
Precisely, Mr Pratt. How the hell does this moron get the authority to waste taxpayer money on any project he chooses?

From the article: ““Britain has lost a third of our refineries this year”
Stupid British politicians have thrown them away. Just like Gavin Newsom in California.
Stupidity reins on the Left, no matter where the Left is found.
There will be no Transition to Net Zero. It’s a pipe dream. It is destined to fail. One of these days the Stupid Left will realize this. Let’s hope the realization is not too late for our economies. The U.S. seems to be getting back on track, for the most part. The UK, not so much. They are still headed down the Net Zero Road to Ruin, with Mad Miliband at the throttle.
You are one of those who still confuse systemic corruption and deliberate sabotage with stupidity.
You’re too kind . It requires a will to power thru determined Stupidity driven by misanthropy .
You are one of those who sees conspiracy under every bed. System corruption is endemic to government, deliberate sabotage is a figment of your imagination.
It isn’t a conspiracy:
“Frankly, we may get to the point where the only way of
saving the world will be for industrial civilization to collapse.”
Maurice Strong September 1997 National Review magazine.
Strong said that more than once. All those liberals whose
favorite quote is “We have met the enemy and he is us” are
the same liberals who say that there are too many people
on the planet. What do you think they mean by that?
Well, some superrich people set up the Bilderberger &CFR Stonehenge = Georgia Guidesstones in 1981,
with 10 new commandtments and a global population reduction plan below 500 mio( I think I can even tell you the precise number, but I’m not going there).
And you need to be superrich and equally powerful to order and set up such gigantic monoliths+carvings that can not be tracked back.(to the Bohemian grove where the same kind of statue can be found as at Epsteins temple)
And before that, in 1972s Club of Romes “Limits of growth ” was released,
” in search for a new enemy to unite humanity “, and they instantly got the ice age scare and later on AGW to unite us.
Apocalypse on Demand.
And before that the Frankfurt School was created in 1924, with the purpose to save the world from “western civilization “.
And before that the Fabian Society was very explicit about creating the new human via psychological,biological and chemical means(enjoy your vaccines).
People who will attack their own fellow citizens if they’d show any kind of patriotism and nationalism.
Most people don’t even know about the guidestones. They’re not relevant to much of anything.
So we had the Plandemic,the MRNA not- vaccines,the unscientific,unlawful and unjust lockdowns we had Iran Contra,
CiA massive involvement in drug trade since at least Air America cooperating with the Mafia,
several wars based on lies(Iraq,Afghanistan,Yugoslavia,Lybia,Syria),
and a coordinated conspiracy of 2 countries and their intelligences to lie to justify an attack on Iraq with the WMD bs.
On top of that we have the official narrative on Ukraine incl. neverending success stories.
And the strange paradox that the USA did a dozen time what Russia does in Ukraine – yet noone cared to criticize, let alone sanction the USA.
Then we have the impossible=controlled synchronized behavior if western leaders against their own people.
(before Epstein Island, something that waa way above your imagination, before it turned out to be true).
A totally demented Biden noone was talking about,En contraire was protected by the MSM.
And on top of that all over the western world a left that has been totally put in line.
Noone of the western left is anymore patriotic(It’s actually a crime to them)
while it was the most normal thing all over the world(and still is outside of the west).
There is an impossible yet real 0 diversity of thought in all of the western left.
And this can only happen a coordinated way.(just as Bertrand Russel promised a 100 years ago)
And what have you learned?absolutely nothing.
Congratulations.
Well, I used to be like you, but then I entered Kindergarten and realised – time to grow up.
And I’ll give you an actual example why you are the sophisticated smart ass
and I am the crazy conspiracy theorist.
In the USA there is a physical anomaly of the worst kind everyone should be aware of, but almost no- one is because there are too many of your kind.
A country where a hollow tin can at 400mph can easily cut through 1 feet of supersteel,
while 24 years later a supersolid bullet that is twice as fast and 10* as robust
can not penetrate a neckbone.
And that’s the difference between you and me and why I can predict stuff
and you never will.
I can tell an anomaly when I see one,
while you are too busy to feel smarter than a politician and to not be called a conspiracy theorist..
No idea what you mean.
Please re-write in drug-free English language.

Fish free fish oil. Refine that.
Yes, we’re still all in, folks. But it’s getting harder for them to justify that fact…
Grid Operator Says Miliband’s Net Zero Policies Will Cost £14 Billion Extra Every Year – Guido
That’s roughly £500 per household per year. Which prompted this from the student faction:
Does this mean higher energy bills?
Not necessarily.
So could the costs be lower?
this would ignore the cost of worsening climate damage.
Can we trust this report?
The models are also based on a range of assumptions…
So does it still make sense to accelerate our green ambitions?
Absolutely, according to world-leading scientists and experts. – The 6th Form Common Room
They have an unshakeable faith in their technocracy. We don’t.
Labour is a cancer like the US Democrats.
The Club of Rome has a solution for that.
The only supplement Vegans need is beef.

We’re both carnivore. Monthly shop at our local farm shop. c£250+ per month. No supplements needed…
Don’t you just wish the Vegans would bugger off back to Vega?
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas is for Vegans too

The mysterious double post strikes again
You mean Susan will take care of them?
Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As she records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing
But the only soldier now is me
I’m fighting things I cannot see
I think it’s called my destiny
That I am changing
Suzanne… Vega
Right,its a Suzanne-Susan
I, also, appreciate potential of this slogan. Short, catchy and with a chance to provoke comically ineffective counterattacks.
Actually omnivores, but that is a nit.
Vegan supplements – conjures an image of putting them in the Winter feed for livestock.
What has really made UK Vegans etc really mad is this…
EU parliament votes to ban meat names for plant-based foodsThe European Parliament (EP) has voted to ban the use of words like “burger” or “steak” to describe their plant-based variants. – BBC
Paul McCartney joins uproar over EU ‘veggie burger’ ban
The proposed EU law would prohibit food producers from using labels such as “veggie burger” or “vegan sausage” for plant-based and lab-grown dishes. – Politico
The people of Blighty are being screwed by all of their political parties. The critical mass of the country know this to be true. Old Blighty is heading for rack and ruin. Parliament and the house of lords have led this country and its people down the garden path.
This is actually quite brilliant. He needs to follow up by fitting all vegans with fart collection systems. They could be given grants to install equipment to inject their gas into the distribution mains with a feed in tariff. UK would become and energy super power.
I am surprised that Carney has not suggested that yet.
Every day, the formerly Great Britain becomes more of a Black Mirror episode.
don’t we have enough vegans already?
Starmer and Milliband are not really British, are they? But, they aim to ruin Britain. Britain needs to regain its culture and remove the millions who would a leavening at home rather than a drag in Britain. Piers Morgan, the supine Britisher, spoke of a vibrant, multicultural London. What codswallop! He is a symptom of the prostrate Britain. Get up and take back your country.
Story tip:
Council member Katie Cashman emphasized the importance of addressing climate change. “The cost of not addressing climate change is much greater than the cost that we’re paying right now to try to get ourselves off fossil fuels,” she said.
Cashman also highlighted the benefits for those participating in city programs.
“For those who participate in our city programs and make these upgrades to their homes, their energy bills go way down,” she said.

Britain is in serious trouble because of people like Miliband, boot him out.
My wife has been a vegetarian plus seafood eater since 1952.
That is a lot of experience.
Her choice has produced no observable effects, good or bad.
It is her choice and her business alone.

That is considered vegan?
The outrage should be aimed at the fact the UK is tilting at the windmill (net zero). THAT is the disease. This vegan omega 3 manufacturing plant is just a symptom.
Just a grasshopper – a distraction.
Hi from Norway! 🙂 Britain needs to get over their “guilt” for spreading modern civilization all around the world! Close your borders and elected politicians serving the British people first and foremost!
You ow NOTHING to anybody!
Britain is the cradle of the MODERN CIVILISATION — and we should all be thankful to the British people for this!…
(btw. Britain was the first to abolish slavery — but BBC never say it)
