Lee Anderson said his battery-powered lawnmower made a ‘nonsense’ of Net Zero and this A++ takedown cut deepest

Former Conservative Party deputy chair turned Reform UK MP Lee Anderson has been cutting his grass – stick with us – with a battery powered lawnmower someone bought him as a gift.

And it got him thinking about net zero, of which he is exactly as much of a fan as you would imagine, and put two and two together to get, well, whatever the hell it was, it definitely wasn’t four.

Net Zero Nonsense.

Does he want a coal-powered lawn mower? And why didn’t he buy British? https://t.co/hbNxz8Sr2G

In 2024, the majority of UK Power comes from clean energy. Coal is less than 3% of generation. In January 2023, a max record of 87% clean generation was set. Energy sector employs 1 in every 48 people in the UK; it’s important politicians are accurate about our sector. https://t.co/EBovCyrmjr

But while they were all top notch, this A++ response surely cut deepest.

Has that hoody got no party affiliation on it so you can get decent wear out of it?
