Boris ‘Bonkers’ Johnson is running energy policies that were written by and for the Greens. Touting an all-wind powered future and an end to fossil fuels, his little island nation has already experienced mass blackouts courtesy of its obsession with wind power and is set for a whole lot more if Johnson’s plans get anywhere near fruition.
UK power prices have rocketed and energy poverty is the new normal for its poorest and most vulnerable.
So, it’s more than just a little rich for Boris to be lecturing Australia about energy policy.
Apparently overlooking the fact that Australia does not enjoy the benefits of the CO2-emissions-free nuclear power generation that he does, Boris proceeded to give our PM a blast over this country’s apparent “failure” to do enough on reducing CO2 emissions.

Great friends, sure, but don’t lecture us on emissions targets
