Net Zero and Mass Immigration are Killing the Economy
Monday, 10 June 2024
The combined effects of net zero and mass immigration are destroying the country. Here’s how:
Mass Immigration
Like all countries, we have only limited resources:
- A limited number of houses
- A limited number of schools
- A limited number of doctors and nurses
- A limited number of social services
- Everything is limited
When we have limited resources, it is necessary to limit the demand on those resources. Mass immigration imposes an unlimited demand on a set of limited resources. If we impose an unlimited demand on a set of limited resources, then those resources will be crushed under the weight of excessive demand.
When the government opens its doors to everyone who is in need on planet Earth and offers an open invitation to people from all nations to come to Britain, where they will receive:
- A house
- Medical care
- Dental care
- Money
- Social care
- Education
all at public expense, then every public resource, every public service will be crushed under the weight of demand.
Mass immigration has led to us importing over 2 million people in two years. The result of this is that all of our public services and all of our utilities are under massive strain and close to breaking point. Who pays the price? We do, the British people.
If You’re in a Hole, Stop Digging We have dug ourselves into a hole with mass immigration, and the first thing we must do is stop digging! We must severely limit the number of people entering the country so that we do not break every service we have.
David Cameron's 10,000 Target When David Cameron was Prime Minister, he set the target limit of immigration at 10,000. Last year, we had over 1.2 million. We need to get back to 10,000.
Net Zero is Destroying Britain Net zero is the second policy which is destroying Britain.
There is no mandate for net zero. The Conservative government gained its 80-seat majority on the promise of “Brexit.” The Conservative Party never mentioned net zero at all during the last election.
However, when they got in, they failed to deliver Brexit properly and they implemented net zero with no mandate
Nobody asked for it. Nobody voted for it. And yet net zero is being imposed without mercy.
Net Zero's Impact Net zero is a justification for an attack on the motorcar. They want us out of our cars and onto bicycles or electric vehicles. In 2030, the Labour government will outlaw the production of diesel and petrol motorcars. Can you imagine this country without diesel generators?
We will be back in the pre-industrial age.
Net zero is an attack on agriculture. Net zero is being used to justify an attack on farming. They want to take 20% of arable land out of food production. The result of that will be higher food prices.
Net zero is justification for an increase in energy costs. All of our energy costs have gone up because of net zero. You pay more for your gas, for your electricity, for your petrol, and for everything since everything that is produced requires energy, and when energy is expensive, everything we buy becomes more expensive.
Net zero is an attack on freedom of travel. Net zero will soon be used to justify 15-minute cities where we will soon be “encouraged” to remain within sectors designated as a 15-minute city and you will be only allowed out on certain conditions and a certain number of times in a year before you are prevented from going out of your sector.
Does this sound like a free country to you?
Purposeful Policy This is no accident. The government is in the process of destroying our freedoms and our economy in order to extract money from the pockets of the poor, to feed the greed of their corporate sponsors.
Reform UK is the Only Answer Fight back with Reform. If you want to fight back, retain your freedom, and save Britain, then we must:
- Scrap net zero immediately 
- Stop mass immigration immediately
These two are the most important aspects because they affect everything else.
If you agree, vote with me, Reform UK.
