Why Keir Starmer's fossil fuel plans are crazy...
In the parallel universe that Labour inhabits, at their national conference the Labour Leader Keir Starmer pledges to completely remove our dependence on fossil fuels by 2030.
So, can they point to an Einstein figure who has proposed a solution to this problem? Has there been a hypothesis of an energy or electricity generation system that can provide up to 45GW on demand for the UK through the winter of 2029 to 2030 or beyond without generating CO2 without the use of gas or coal or nuclear power or biomass to generate the electricity required?
If there is then I, and the rest of the world needs to know now. Please don’t keep it a secret because despite all the efforts of all the existing physicists and researchers and dreamers or environmentalists the world over there isn’t even a hint of such a solution.
All the other 195 signatories to the COP26 event have now decided that they need to invest in coal mining or coal burning as the cheapest and easiest form of electricity generation. We are the last member of the COP26 attendees who are in step with the army of decarbonisation warriors. All the rest have rushed off to wherever they can buy coal to fuel their domestic electricity generation needs.
We at the UK Independence Party on the other hand, after years of campaigning, know what must be done to keep the lights on. Now, at long last, desperation has proved we have been right all along, just like we were on the desire of the people of the UK to leave the clutches of the EU that was relentlessly asset stripping us.
If you want energy security and low energy bills, then voting Lib-Lab-con is not the solution. Repeating the same experiment repeatedly hoping for a different result, as Einstein stated is the definition of stupidity.
The UK Independence Party demands an end to subsidies for renewables and CO2 emission trading schemes and the levies on burning fossil fuels and the generation of CO2, and the return to sanity.
There is no point in trying to save the planet at the cost of destruction of the UK. There is after all no scientific proof that rising CO2 levels will result in catastrophic global warming, only computer models, garbage in, garbage out.

Jeffrey Titford 24.10.1933 – 09.09.2024 Jeffrey Titford, the former Leader of the UK Independence Party and two term MEP for the East of England, has passed away, after suffering from cancer. His family announced his death on 10 th September, aged 90. Jeffrey was one of the fathers of Brexit, coming to the fore in national and international politics at a time when leaving the EU was considered unthinkable and long before it became official Conservative Party policy. A visionary and a democrat, who did not believe that EU membership provided a viable future for Britain as an independent, self-governing nation, Jeffrey Titford was elected to the European Parliament at the 1999 European Parliamentary Elections, aged 63. He was one of three UK Independence Party MEPs elected, which sent shock waves through the political world. He became Leader of the Party in 2000 and served for three years bringing stability and respectability to its campaigns. During this period, he made seventy speeches a year, travelling all over the country. He also served as interim Leader from September to November 2010, following the resignation of Lord Pearson of Rannoch, while the election of a new Leader was held. During his time in the European Parliament, he made dozens of speeches in Plenary session severely criticising the EU and particularly the level of fraud in its finances. He also extensively lobbied the European Commission and the Government in Westminster on behalf of the British fishing and farming industries. He led several delegations of fishermen to see UK Agriculture Ministers in Westminster and also took a delegation to meet the European Commissioner for Fishing in Brussels. He wrote monthly columns for the East Anglian Daily Times, the Hertfordshire Mercury and Farmers Guide and made many appearances on regional television. He also made a guest appearance on Breakfast with Frost. Jeffrey Titford’s political career began in 1970, when he became a Councillor on the Clacton Urban District Council. He ended his association with the Conservative Party in 1992, in protest over Prime Minister John Major’s signing of the Maastricht Treaty. He joined Sir James Goldsmith’s Referendum Party and, in a sign of things to come, stood in the General Election of 1997 in Harwich when he was the Party’s most successful candidate, securing almost 10 per cent of the vote and, in the process, unseating the sitting Member of Parliament. Following the death of Sir James Goldsmith, Jeffrey was invited to join the UK Independence Party (UKIP), where he established a branch in Clacton and a regional committee, which led to his successful campaign in the European Elections in 1999. He paved the way for Nigel Farage’s subsequent success in Clacton at the 2024 General Election. He was re-elected to the European Parliament in 2004, with a greatly increased share of the vote and UKIP also returned a second MEP. He retired from European Politics in 2009 and was made an Honorary Patron of the Party in 2006 and became President for Life in 2011. Life before politics Following National Service in the RAF, Jeffrey joined the family’s funeral directing business in 1956, where he had a 35 year career, during which he served for 12 years on the National Association of Funeral Director’s (NAFD) National Executive and rose to National President in 1975-76. He was instrumental in developing an official code of practice for the funeral profession, at the request of the Office of Fair Trading. He also successfully campaigned for funeral directors to have the right to sell a package funeral and carried out the first review of the practice manual for funeral directing, which led to the creation of a formal qualification for funeral directors, recognised by the NAFD. He sold the company in February 1989 and retired from the profession. An enthusiastic Rotarian, Jeffrey served as President of the Clacton and later Frinton Rotary Clubs. He also belonged to the Clacton Operatic and Clacton Dramatic Societies, taking lead roles in both companies. However, his most successful hobby was rally driving. He was a leading light in the Clacton Motor Club in the early seventies for whom he was the regional rally champion for six consecutive years. Jeffrey Titford was a devoted family man and is survived by his wife Margaret, one son, three daughters, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
