  3. Nuclear power! Small reactor everywhere.
    “But it will take 10 years”
    That’s what we said 15 years ago!

    It cleaner than fossils fules; more compact and less resorce intensive than renewables; and if you check the stats nuclear power reactors have killed less people than each of them.

    Honestly, if we were totally Nuclear we could run them cheap enough that only business would have to pay electricity, residential home could get it free and sell excess power to Europe.

  4. They won’t get that from reform Farage would just get rid of all environmental restrictions and we’d go back to Victorian times.

    Don’t know why the downvote he’s just going to do the same things as Trump

  5. “The Grantham study projects UK climate damage costs as a percentage of UK GDP from 2022 to 2100. The calculations are based on climate scenarios developed for the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report, and assume GDP and population growth rates continue along the same trend as in recent decades.

    We used the updated Grantham data to identify the projected UK climate damage costs under a current policies scenario from 2025 to 2034 (£1,125,762,482,000, in 2023 GBP). We divided this by the projected average number of UK households over this period (29,434,000) to find the average cost per household (£38,247). Using the same methodology for 2025 only, the cost comes to £3,003 per UK household.”

    So in other words it is entirely made up. Model-based nonsense.

  7. If they could read the Reform manifesto then they’d be really upset.

  8. Beyond the Trojan Horse of immigration, it appears most don’t understand that Reform just wants unregulated corporatism

  9. ? They do know that Reform are wanting to cut back on renewable, clean energy in favour of fossil fuels? I think they maybe voting for the wrong party!

  10. Goes to show how uninformed voters are.

    A few nice soundbites and people are giving their vote to this party…

    Farage and Reform are the biggest fossil fuel shills in British politics. Farage doesn’t even try to hide it. Utterly taking the piss out of the voters.

    If they got in there would be large scale fracking and massive tax breaks for the likes of BP.

  11. These the same ones that care fuck all for nature and litter like it’s cool?

  12. What a strange headline, “supporters of a policitcal party among majority of people who support adressing environmental issue”

    Like yeah no shit everyone wants fossil fuel producers to pay more back. Whats their support of reform got to do with it? Unless its higher than other political party supporter group. Which is what i think this article is trying to get you to think, just without saying it becauae they havent got the data to back it up.

    “Majority of reform supporters amongst majority of humans who like toast polls show”

  13. Not to be cynical but are you sure they understood the question?

  15. Do these voters know anything about Reform policies?

    It’s not just racism dipshits.
