Will Spain follow Germany over the cliff?

This Week:

• Meat is on the elimination agenda.

• Media narrative.

• Further autarky in Russia.

• Spain to follow Germany’s lead in energy suicide.

Meat

From the brains trust that brought you covid lockdowns, they’re now focusing their efforts on removing your choice to eat meat:

Anyone else get the feeling they’re not all that concerned with our health as opposed to their own agenda?

Media Framing

It’s intentional.

Russia

Autarky continues to roll out with Russian Railways announcing since the German firm Siemen’s exit from the country after 170 years, new domestically produced electric locomotives are entering service.

The first four trains manufactured at the Ural Locomotives plant have been put into service on the Sverdlovsk Railway, which runs through the Urals and Western Siberia. Another eight will be ready for operation by the end of the year, RZD said. It also noted that this model will become the basic platform for “a whole range of high-speed electric trains of a new generation.”

Spain

The Spanish government seems intent on following their German counterparts in committing energy suicide:

Removing nuclear energy from the mix in favour of more renewables will lead to both more expensive and more vulnerable energy supply. Normal people will pay the price for their leaders short-sighted virtue signalling and ineptitude.
