affective polarisation in action.

[Steve Akehurst @SteveAkehurst]

It's sometimes said that, for voters, the cause of climate change/Net Zero has become associated with hectoring, middle class puritans and so on.

This is not true - neither with voters overall nor swing voters. It's only true for a core of Reform voters.

Brentford launches Gen10. Their junior fans will pay no more than £10 to watch the Bees away from home and visiting junior fans from other PL clubs will pay the same 🐝🐝⚽️⚽️❤️❤️ https://t.co/t3pqkQt9NR

Last I looked, a forest is a forest. Don't recall ever walking through a forest and thinking "wow, I love what they've done with this net zero forest".

What next? Pejorative use of net zero peatland restoration? Sinister net zero insulation of homes?

The impact this would actually have on food security is so minuscule as to be laughable. Anyone actually serious about improving food security would be looking at encouraging people to eat a bit less meat, investing in more climate resilient agriculture, and banning golf courses.
