Reform Declares 'War on Net Zero' to Lower Energy Bills

Proposed Windfall Tax Could Save Households £350 a Year

Reform's latest initiative, the 'war on Net Zero,' aims to reduce energy bills for millions of households. Deputy leader Richard Tice revealed that a windfall tax on the renewable industry could potentially save families up to £350 annually.

New Policies to Tackle Rising Energy Costs

Additionally, Reform plans to reverse the inheritance tax burden on farmers, with exceptions for those utilizing land for solar panels. The party is set to introduce new legislation to compel the National Grid to bury new pylons underground, halting shareholder payments for companies involved until this task is completed.

Challenging the Green Drive

Deputy leader Tice criticized the push for Net Zero, attributing it to the industrialization of Britain. He emphasized that Reform's strategies aim to alleviate the financial strain on households and reduce the overall cost of living.

Greenpeace's Response

Greenpeace has expressed skepticism towards Reform's proposals, stating that the policies may not adequately address the challenges faced by individuals grappling with soaring energy expenses.
