The Climate Scaremongers: UK Localities Are Wasting Billions On Overpriced Electric Buses
Local councils face soaring costs as net-zero policies push pricey electric buses and charging infrastructure.

 Spending on net zero is now so endemic in government that it would be impossible to track it all down. [emphasis, links added]

Waste in government is, of course, rampant, but when it comes to climate change, it seems a case of anything goes, with no apparent budgetary control imposed.


Just one comparatively minor example gives us a clue that the bill is much bigger than anybody could imagine.

Last year, Warrington Borough Council announced it was replacing its fleet of 105 buses with shiny new electric ones, courtesy of a £20 million government grant.

Small beer, you might say.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
