Thank you for sharing both videos. I watched David Starkey last night, and watched Richard Jeffs film this morning.

I would support David Starkey's assertion that revolutions DON'T WORK. They really don't. Ever. They just spill blood. History is a hugely powerful tool in countering the (actually much better) tag Jeffs briefly used at the end of the film #JustCommunism. Mao, Stalin, Pot, Castro & (of course) Hitler (whom to many is 'right wing' - but was in fact the uber social democrat) all tried a form of communism and failed. And history teaches us that communism has always failed. Schwab's 'I cannot believe it's not communism' will also fail. Stakeholder capitalism is a lovely, warm phrase and one that isn't a million miles off the 'Capitalism with conscience' I used myself in a meeting in the late 1980's to gales of uproar & laughter (I meant well - but the timing was bad). The scariest individual for me in the Jeffs film was not Schwab, or Trudeau, or Arden, or King Charles. We know we lost all of these characters a very long time ago. No, the person who scared the bejeebies out of me was the head of Glastonbury council. Why? In a previous business venture - I have encountered people like this lady and the disciples sitting about them, glassy-eyed and complicit. It was a deeply unsettling experience. If I'm truthful - one I have not fully recovered from. And we've thousands of councillors and agents like this - all over this country and ever other one in the West. Not ONE of them will stand up to globalist-led tyranny and not ONE of them will protect those people they 'pledged' to 'serve' in their communities. NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM. I have seen it. I have experienced it FIRST HAND. If you Google 'People's Century' on You Tube and look for the 'red revolution' episode made in the late 1990's - it will serve to show you from the mouths of people who saw the rise of Stalin - the poets, the electricians, the construction workers and the teachers - and WERE THERE. You will see - from their very old mouths and still very sharp minds - that the whole promise of communism ended up a corrupt farce. Some of them after supporting Lenin in 1917 - ended up in Gulags - where many of their friends and colleagues perished.

The same thing will happen this century as the WEF is a globalist dictatorship and 'Stakeholder Capitalism' is indeed: #JustCommunism

I haven't had the chance to watch the film yet, but I am sure it will be a good awakener for many. I believe the fascists have pushed things too far, and hit society below the belt when they attacked the farmers. The migrant issue, especially in Dublin currently, has also sparked a mass awakening. Tony Blair was a young global leader, so he really was pushing WEF fascist policies, the Tories then grabbed the baton and kept running with it, but are now out of steam. They are desperately trying to pass it to Reform (establishment, Zionist puppets), before we wake up, but we are already awake to the perpetual crisis/fear strategy and will no longer buy into it. Even the word 'fossil' fuel is designed to make us fear it's running low to justify ever sky rocketing prices. The puppet masters have played a very clever, long game, but they are running out of moves.

Thanks Tricia (& sorry for the tardy response). Global young leaders & summer schools for various ballooning civil service functions have a tremendous amount to answer for. The film with Starkey is very relevant as it points to what you hinted at Blair dismantling the effectiveness of sovereign UK statute & creating more ‘satellite’ laws orbiting about it (all with hangers on - like Blair’s QC wife).

Taking back control of this whole arena is of paramount importance as it’s been stolen by stealth.

The slow steady Marxist infiltration of every aspect of society by Common Purpose and other NGOs, funded by Soros and the like, is mind-blowing. Now we are awake though, they have zero chance of fulfilling their quest for world control. Sorry for my tardy response, must check my emails more often!

I don't want to get 'sniffy' with this article - there is much to ponder, but I do take issues with the endless sniping at electric cars, because it is petty and ill informed. BEVs are just cars that happen to run on something that we have in abundance - and can be generated off my roof - electricity. I generate 2500 kWh a year - enough to drive 10,000 miles or so. I have not visited a gas/petrol station in 11 years, because I am very content with driving a car that is not reliant on expensive and grossly inefficient infernal combustion of Saudi oil. And all of the myths about EVs are just that. They are no more of a sinister plot than your mobile phone or your vacuum cleaner.

And that's the joy of the market Rob - that you can choose. However, under NetZero such choice will be removed from those of us who much prefer not to drive battery cars.

I'm a public health trained person. I know that people living close to main roads in cities - most of whom do not drive cars - are far more likely to suffer from Dementia (and lots of other serious conditions) than country folk with big smelly SUVs. Fine particulate emissions from diesel fumes appear to be the possible culprit.

So, freedom is a lovely thing, but we do not have the absolute right to inflict misery and ill health on others who are less fortunate than us. And governments are perfectly justified in seeking to reduce traffic fumes, which in many UK inner cities, are way above safe guidelines.

Drive your 4x4 in the country - nobody cares.

But leave it at the Park 'n Ride, and take the tram or electric train into town.

Its no different from smoking - I don't care if you smoke, but not in my house, or in a restaurant, cinema, theatre, or office.

But CO2 emissions are the main arguments against oil. And the false claims that human made CO2 is causing climate change. The issue of particulate emissions is a recent development used by Sadiq Khan - in full knowledge of the fact that particulates in London underground stations are at vastly greater levels than roads above ground. Your argument is specious nonsense.

No it isn't. I loathe the London Underground anyway - it stinks. And so does oil. I don't give a fig about CO2. I do give a fig about urban air pollution, and moved to Scotland in 1991 to avoid the big stink - we do have choices in life, and mine was to grow my own veggies, raise a family in a small village, and enjoy a good life.

Rob - may I interject a personal perspective?

Prof Barbara Maher of Lancaster University has undertaken a colossal amount of research into pollution particulate and it's effects on human cognitive responses over time. She's probably about the best authority on the subject in the world. When I designed and installed living plant walls in London a few years ago - we referenced her work a lot. As a small, pioneering, maverick industry - between us we approached endless 'public sector' bodies about the benefits of using nature-based solutions to remediate pollution. Few took them up - and those who were most close-minded were all the Labour-wards in London who Khan loves so very dearly. Mexico City put up more green infrastructure than London to offset car exhaust pollution even though the wealth per citizen in Mexico City is way lower than London!

Electric vehicles make great sense for public vehicles who do regular runs and can return to state of the art charging facilities (dust carts, delivery vans etc). Unfortunately - that's not what has happened, and it's (as Jeffs makes clear) it's about MONEY. ULEZ is a stealth tax on poorer Londoners and small businesses. You could see he didn't give a fig about democracy when under the F.O.I it was revealed the toxic dictator went off and purchased the technology to issue punitive fines BEFORE the public consultations were completed!

If his Labour strongholds had installed more green infrastructure in the worst pollution spots near schools and where those most vulnerable lived - a huge chunk of the issue - would have disappeared. We know that from the level of particulate significantly removed from the area around Guys Hospital during construction work around 2015-16.

To battery powered cars - I would suggest you mug up on Lithium production for the batteries. The sheer quantity of earth needed to be moved & processed to get enough Lithium for every battery. The earth-moving equipment needed runs on diesel Rob - lots and lots and lots of diesel. Billions of gallons a year. Ditto the 400 litres of oil in each and every single windmill across the nation (which needs changing annually).

But - for those who love to crow about their Leaf and their Zoe on the drive - it's a problem for some remote population somewhere else - so who gives a crap? By the way - thanks for the assertion that people can "drive their 4x4's in rural areas - no one cares". Actually Rob - I live rurally on a main road. I care. In winter - when gardening - you can crunch pollution between your teeth compared to spring and summer - when the green screen infrastructure I've carefully built up eats it before it reaches our lungs.

Hope that's helped.

I totally agree with this:

"Electric vehicles make great sense for public vehicles who do regular runs and can return to state of the art charging facilities (dust carts, delivery vans etc)."

Unfortunately, the massive subsidies provided by my government were mainly to private motorists, most of whom by definition lived in green and leafy suburbs and rural areas - because they had a front drive and could charge at home. However, on the positive side, this did help create an articulate cadre of EV enthusiasts who helped promote the technology - including in many cases to their employers and colleagues.

Lithium is a very common mineral and used in almost all modern batteries, including my phone, my lawn mower, my bike, my chainsaw and my camera - but if you want to campaign against lithium, then fine - its highly likely that sodium will replace it anyway in due course.

I'm not really campaigning against anything, but balancing the 'green' and 'sustainable' arguments with (unfortunately) facts. It terms of replacing fossil fuel, there is no magic silver bullet. It'll take decades - but it's not a green agenda driving things (pardon the pun). It's globalists who want to declare war on people's freedom to move about. That's why the roads are shit, now frequently closed and full of potholes/diversions and constrictions, or (worst of all) subject to LTN's & 20mph speed limits. Insurance costs and servicing costs have increased and road excise duty will continue to increase way ahead of inflation. I, and many others aren't buying the green arguments - because we know the cynical manipulation going on behind the curtain where the same rogues gallery of billionaires are (again) at it - this time at the behest of their new handlers.

E.V's are really likely to be organic 'transport rationing'. On the environmental side - extracting minerals to make batteries is a high energy, high waste process. Whilst I get your argument on smaller devices, smaller devices have much smaller batteries.
