🚨 The true cost of Net Zero policies is far greater than the £12 billion p.a in government budgets. The NHS has insane procurement rules which massively increase costs for suppliers and thus prices for taxpayers. Instead of prioritising the record waitlists or the tens of thousands who wait more than 3 days in A&E each year, the Westminster elite decided the NHS should achieve net zero by 2040 and for NHS suppliers by 2045, in advance of even the (mad) statutory national 2050 goal. Doing so has been approved by the NHS England Board and was enshrined in the 2022 Health and Care Act by the Tories. By April 2027 it will require all suppliers to have committed to achieve net zero for their global operations by 2045 or they will not be able to go for any NHS tender. Even worse, by April 2028, the NHS will require that there should be a carbon footprint (which can costs £000s, even £10,000s of pounds per product) provided by suppliers for each and every product supplied to the NHS or again you won’t be able to go for a tender. All these insane rules result in taxpayers endlessly forced to put more into the NHS and yet struggle to see a doctor. Reform will scrap net zero, and fight for taxpayers.

The Tories running to a quango to help cover their tracks is the most Tory thing to do ever.
