Where is his wisdom?

[Devil]

I am beginning to wonder what kind of government has evolved under Mr Sunak. Firstly, the affair of Ms Braverman is on the point of being exposed in Parliament but, no matter what she says, I don't think anything will be resolved.

But this lady, who was sacked for breaching the rules for ministers, suddenly reappears a week later as if nothing had happened. What kind of Prime Minister does it take to pretend to be a man of integrity and then show that he is just a scoundrel as other prime ministers have been by reappointing her.

Then we have a Prime Minister who doesn't want to go to Egypt for world leaders to discuss the environment. Probably because he doesn't have a clue about it. Then, all of a sudden, he announces that he may go, after all. Will he or won't he? If he does go, the new boy in the class will feel out of place amongst the other world leaders. If he doesn't go, he can expect a load of undesirable waste on his shoulders.

His predecessor advised King Charles not to go to Egypt – for what reason I do not know. If he had the integrity of a leader, he would ask the king to accompany him, knowing that he knows less about climate change than the king himself. It is obviously up to the king to decide whether he wants to go on not but a Prime Minister, by definition, should advise him.

Mr Sunak certainly has a lot of worry on his dinnerplate but he seems totally unable to get his priorities straight. He may be a whizkid in cooking the books and even making the right economic decisions, but I must say that I am personally disappointed at his performance so far. May he be granted a little wisdom in the future.

So you were moaning at him for not going, and now you are moaning at him for possibly going.

These COP conferences are a waste of time and money a total talking shop. The climate will never improve unless they can stop China from building new Coal Fired Power Stations.

In 2021, China began building 33 gigawatts of coal-based power generation, according to the Helsinki-based Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air

They also need to rein in USA, but none of that happens

But China does recently much more also in renewable energies....

todays article PV magazine, Google translated

The National Energy Agency NEA in China has reported a photovoltaic expansion of 52.6 gigawatts in the country for the first nine months of the year. This is an increase of 132 percent compared to the previous year. The consulting firm AECEA reports that the cumulatively installed photovoltaic output exceeded the 350 gigawatt mark at the end of September. This means that photovoltaics are now a few gigawatts ahead of wind power. By mid-2023, it will probably become the second most important source of electricity generation in China after coal-fired power. There are currently hydroelectric power plants with a total capacity of 403 gigawatts in China.

That may be so but they already have 1100 coal fired power stations churning out toxic smoke and are building more. India has hundreds as well and until you stop them using them the problem will only get worse no matter what other measures that you take.
