This is a question I have asked before and as an annoying and persistent child, I will keep on asking it until I get a satisfactory answer!
Doctor North in his blog-post today (https://www.turbulenttimes.co.uk/news/front-page/climate-change-last-chance-saloon/) again eloquently and eruditely describes the parlous predicament this seeming crew of incompetents that passes for Her Majesty’s Government have got the county into!
This is what has got me stumped: Why would a clever and sensible fellow like Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson who gained a King’s Scholarship to study at Eton College and then a scholarship to read Literae Humaniores at Balliol College, Oxford carry on with a policy that places the UK’s electricity supply at the vagaries of the British weather!
It just does NOT make sense!
It WOULD make sense if such as Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson and others knew that placing the UK’s electricity supply at the vagaries of the British weather was NOT going to be a problem because of something that THEY knew and WE didn’t!
How can I illustrate this?
Well, when He was on Earth, the Good Lord used to explain things using the devise of the parable. I will therefore take a leaf of the the “Good Book” and do likewise.
My parable is an adaptation of the BBC’s “Doctor Who” Sc-Fi series. So:
Once upon a time, there was an alien civilisation that wished to closely monitor human beings on the planet Earth. Having evolved on a different planet that orbited a different star many light years away it was physically impossible for any of them to live on Earth without taking their own environment with them. They were very advanced technologically and scientifically however and transformed a volunteer from being physiologically one of them to one of us!
They established a human identity for her: She was a Ms Dorothy Wallace-Outhwaite born on Thursday 17th June 1982 in Skelmanthorpe in the West Riding of Yorkshire.
Ms Wallace-Outhwaite had no paid employment. She was a full time observer reporting to her kith and kin on humanity’s activities. As a result she needed to acquire money in order to live. This was done by making trips forward and backward in time! Every Friday she would travel into the future to the Sunday, discover the winning six lottery numbers and then go back in time to one minute after she left. She would then visit a local newsagent and purchase one lottery ticket. Importantly, she did NOT write down all six winning numbers! She wrote down 5 of them and made sure that the “bonus ball” numbers she selected were NOT the ones drawn! This ensured that in 2022 she won £1,750.
This she calculated was quite enough to sustain her comfortably. As a result, she visited the newsagent every Friday at 11:00AM and purchased a lottery ticket using a play-slip in which she had filled in her number choices. Each following Monday she would contact Camelot and claim the prize!
This happened regularly week in week out! Always the same newsagent at the same time on a Friday and always five main numbers winning a reasonable – but not life changing – sum!
Now, faced with this most extraordinary ongoing situation, the lottery organisers were MOST perturbed! It was not because Ms Wallace-Outhwaite was doing the equivalent of “breaking the bank at Monte Carlo” for she was not! It was that she was winning repeatedly, week in week out! One could set one’s clock by her!
When the government allowed the lottery to be set up, very great attention and care was paid in making the lottery draws tamper proof! This was vital to ensure the public’s confidence for were people to suspect that the result was “rigged” they would not be willing to part with their cash!
As a result the lottery balls were drawn in such a way in which “rigging” was impossible!
This meant that Ms Wallace-Outhwaite’s weekly winnings should have been statistically impossible!
Just as impossible an idea that wind turbines could ever reliably supply electricity to the National Grid!
Camelot officials interviewed her. West Yorkshire Police investigated her! Neither could uncover anything unlawful! It was a mystery!
What they did NOT know you see, was that Ms Wallace-Outhwaite was not a human being born in Skelmanthorpe, but a certain Zewhdwebu Qildanenc born on the planet Gallifrey!
Of course, some people might suggest that a sort of “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” event has taken place and that our Dearly Beloved PM has been replaced by an alien lookalike! Could the current PM possibly really look like this? [JOKE!!!!!!!]
Perhaps the missing Information is you have not taken into account United Nations Agenda 2030. It quite clearly states one objective would be to reduce world population by two thirds.
You could also investigate the Georgia Stones. The idea there is to have a world population of no more than 500,000.
Thereby greatly reducing demand for electricity. Therefore Boris and his plans would be quite adequate.
