Even the global climate and the definition of a woman is in their control.<\/p>\n<p>But what\u2019s truly striking is that, all of a sudden, the situation doesn\u2019t seem to be going according to plan on any of their initiatives. Nobody seems to believe anything they say anymore.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all gone so dreadfully wrong for our Betters. The Establishment, the Deep State, the Davos crowd, the Elites, the House of Lords, the Globalists, and whoever else you\u2019d like to add to the totalitarian mix \u2013 they\u2019re on the retreat, right across the board.<\/p>\n<p>From climate change to migration policy to the economy, if you were to make a list of their pet policies, you could cross them right off again given the news stories coming thick and fast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I\u2019ve never seen so many top-down initiatives flop in such rapid succession.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I expected <a href=\"http:\/\/order.southbankresearch.com\/journey\/FSL-1123-NZ-A\/1?promocode=WUKI4209&amp;organization-abbreviation=SBR\">net zero to prove problematic<\/a>. But I thought they\u2019d at least give it a good go. They seem to be <a href=\"http:\/\/fortuneandfreedom.com\/eu\/why-is-the-climate-revolt-contained-to-the-eurozone\/\">giving up at the first hurdle<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s probably no need to add insult to injury. But let\u2019s do it anyway by providing a quick summary of what\u2019s unravelling, and then get to why I\u2019m telling you about it.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>On the climate change front, it\u2019s all gone so dreadfully wrong. Even the EU is pulling the plug on its own green initiatives. The German Greens are leading the charge to water down the EU\u2019s green policies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/fortuneandfreedom.com\/the-city\/from-pitchforks-to-politics\/\">The EU\u2019s farmers are up in arms, literally<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s totally bizarre to see what was the EU\u2019s most coddled interest group, its farmers, rise up against it.<\/p>\n<p>Remembering that the union was originally a protectionist coal and steel trade zone, it\u2019s worth noting that those two groups of workers didn\u2019t exactly kick up half as much of a fuss as they were phased out by their own protectors. But the farmers had other ideas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The UK<\/strong> was one step ahead of the EU, watering down a long list of climate change policies over the past few months. You\u2019ve heard plenty about all that already.<\/p>\n<p>In central London, Robin Hood and his merry men have been keeping everyday motorists safe from the sheriff by sabotaging his Ultra Low Emission Zone cameras which punish motorists who can\u2019t afford to pay their green taxes or get an EV.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Let them eat cake to avoid the crippling ULEZ charge<\/em>,\u201d scream the Elites. Or is that bugs?<\/p>\n<p>But what chance have 15-minute cities got if ULEZ faces this much opposition?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The German<\/strong> government, green virtue <em>signallers extraordinaire<\/em>, have upped their game from transitioning back to coal by felling windmills. Instead, they now want to fill the gap left by shutting down carbon-emission-free nuclear power with billions of euros of new gas power stations.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, the idea is that they will be converted to hydrogen at some point in the future. With the hydrogen produced\u2026\u2026. somewhere, somehow, by someone using something other than nuclear power.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-150939\" src=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/2-10-300x181.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/2-10-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/2-10.jpg 354w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The announcement out of Germany was, of course, carefully timed for an announcement from the US to freeze approvals of new natural gas exports.<\/p>\n<p>Cue what certainly have been a truly bizarre diplomatic spat, with the Europeans complaining that the Americans weren\u2019t exporting enough fracking fossil fuels to support the green energy transition.<\/p>\n<p>What was Nord Stream 2 blown up for?<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Australia<\/strong>, a landmark wind farm was hung out to dry by the government over environmental damage it would\u2019ve done to a wetland.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, we\u2019ll have a lot more wetland <a href=\"http:\/\/fortuneandfreedom.com\/the-city\/how-does-a-mania-like-climate-change-actually-end-though\/\">should climate scientists be right<\/a> about climate change.<\/p>\n<p>But it leaves everyone wondering what sort of power is permissible in a world where the environment comes first. And it\u2019s not like fossil fuels will be kept online for a lack of renewables\u2026\u2026. or will they?<\/p>\n<p>Even if we did decide to build a green energy system, we still haven\u2019t figured out where the metal will come from. The German government has walked back EU plans to ensure that the metals used in the energy transition are sustainably sourced.<\/p>\n<p>In a truly bizarre twist of fate, it\u2019s the Australian mining billionaire Andrew \u201cTwiggy\u201d Forrest who is complaining about it.<\/p>\n<p>What sort of bizarre world do we live in where Australian mining magnates complain about the lack of green regulation coming out of the EU!? And what will the EU shift do to investment in sustainably sourced metal in the future? Not that the EU needed to add to the existing damage there.<\/p>\n<p>The Australian <em>Financial Review<\/em> newspaper recently had this headline: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.afr.com\/rich-list\/rich-list-fortunes-gouged-by-green-metals-slump-20240126-p5f0c4\"><em>Rich List fortunes gouged by green metals slump<\/em><\/a>. The idea is that those who invested in green metals projects in Australia have lost a fortune, literally.<\/p>\n<p>One executive responded to his stock losing 52% as only a green dream believer could: \u201c<em>I\u2019m not really wealth motivated to be honest<\/em>.\u201d I wonder if his shareholders are pleased to hear this.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>Capitalism\u2019s greatest strength is that it acts as an accountability mechanism. It forces people to put their own money where their mouth is and parts the gullible from said money if the scheme was never going to work.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why car rental companies are trying to offload their EVs at an eyewatering pace. They\u2019re not just refusing to buy more. And they\u2019re not selling them off slowly to avoid crashing the market either. They\u2019re running for it, presumably because the cars won\u2019t take them where they need to go.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>The environmentalists are getting so desperate in their plan to save the planet that they\u2019re turning on the world\u2019s cutest animals to try and save it.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know whether to laugh or cry at this <em>Telegraph<\/em> headline: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/2024\/02\/18\/squirrels-deer-cull-net-zero-defra-plan\/\"><em>Squirrels will be chemically castrated and deer will be culled, cooked and served to prisoners under net zero plans to protect England\u2019s trees<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My first thought was to ask what Australia will do?

The Labour Party plans to cut its green investment pledge by half.<\/p>\n<p>The current government\u2019s much publicised easing of onshore wind farm regulations have resulted in a grand total of zero new onshore wind turbine project applications, a bit like that offshore wind farm auction we had last year.<\/p>\n<p>The world\u2019s leading wind energy companies are running for the hills, with <a href=\"http:\/\/fortuneandfreedom.com\/the-city\/is-wind-power-the-greatest-bait-and-switch-of-all-time\/\">Orsted and Siemens Energy both shuffling their way out of the wind industry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>EVs, the pride and joy of the environmental movement, are struggling in a surprisingly long list of ways.<\/p>\n<p>Even the sceptics couldn\u2019t have come up with such a list.<\/p>\n<p>Their share of sales, their ability to move in cold weather, their ability to retain value and plenty more is accumulating into a rather large embarrassment.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s EV graveyards are in the news, drawing allusions to the ghost cities of a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p>Never afraid to take the moral high ground, the UK\u2019s House of Lords found someone to blame for the EV disappointment: Mr Bean. Apparently, Rowan Atkinson had given EVs a bad review.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s of course ironic that EVs don\u2019t work in the sorts of weather conditions that climate change makes more likely, or less likely, but still rather prevalent, depending on which climate change activist you\u2019re listening to.<\/p>\n<p>More and more governments are abandoning bizarre policies to promote EVs as their various shortfalls and links to China become ever more obvious.<\/p>\n<p>The same goes for other vanity projects like heat pumps, electric boilers and more.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>Soon the scandals will emerge.

It\u2019s everything else too.<\/p>\n<p>Sanctions against Russia are proving to be laughable as the Houthis rebels manage to disrupt more shipping than the Western world\u2019s combined efforts against Russia, and Western exports to Russia\u2019s neighbours go berserk.<\/p>\n<p>Good reason to add more sanctions then, isn\u2019t it? This time for the death of a jailed Russian opposition leader.<\/p>\n<p>While Tucker Carlson is reporting from Moscow about their lavish subway stations and cheap food, Western economies are in or skirting recession.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>The only aspect that does seem to be going in favour of the Establishment is the stock market. On the days recessions were announced in the UK and Japan, for example, stocks in both places rallied healthily.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because, these days, the only element keeping markets alive is government and central bank intervention. And recessions make more intervention more likely.<\/p>\n<p>But is that really the basis of a sustainable rally? And what does it do to society to see stocks go up on the misery of everyone else?<\/p>\n<p>Inflation is proving to be \u201csticky\u201d in many places, just when central bankers were ready to declare victory. Some are even threatening to hike interest rates again, instead of cutting as the markets demand! If the markets are wrong, stocks could plunge.<\/p>\n<p>Facing this difficult situation, the European Central Bank is behaving like my four-year-old who runs around kindergarten telling everyone, \u201c<em>You\u2019re not my best friend anymore!<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>One of the ECB\u2019s governors recently said this about those who see the ECB\u2019s climate change agenda as being contrary to its legal mandate: \u201c<em>I don\u2019t want these people anymore<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You know what? We don\u2019t want you either.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>The verdict on pandemic era policies are growing increasingly embarrassing, putting all other Globalist mandate plans at risk.<\/p>\n<p>Masks, social distancing and lockdowns are viewed by many as debunked, the origin of the virus is looking ever more likely to have been manmade, and vaccines are proving rather unpopular. Sometimes, even government policymakers are the obvious.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>In the US, the sitting president, for he can barely stand, has been described as too senile to stand trial for the same crimes that his opponent is sitting trial for.<\/p>\n<p>The crime would seem to qualify you for president though, given the response from both supporter\u2019s camps about their own candidate\u2019s performance.<\/p>\n<p>But then there\u2019s Hillary Clinton, who also mishandled classified information, but didn\u2019t win an election for it.<\/p>\n<p>With Donald Trump leading polls, the Democrats\u2019 new plan is very American: import voters from overseas. But the consequences of opening borders seem to be costing the Democrats more voters than they can gain.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-150948\" src=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/5-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/5-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/yogaesoteric.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/5.jpg 389w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Those who argued for open borders and defunded police are begging the police to remove the migrants on their doorsteps.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, the mass migration policies which voters associate with the Globalists, because no national government that expects to be held to account at the ballot box would approve them, are triggering protests in some of the most welcoming nations I\u2019ve ever migrated to.<\/p>\n<p>I lived in Austria when the Syrians arrived in 2015. I lived in Ireland before Schengen opened the country to mass migration and visited again several times after. I lived in Germany and the UK when the EU established freedom of movement and the right to reside. I lived in Australia when Tony Abbott\u2019s campaign against illegal immigration began and when the country was flooded with economic migrants from Europe after 2008.<\/p>\n<p>Let me tell you, perfectly ordinary people are furious about the current surge in migration. They had to take a turn for the far right.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>Most damning of all are of course the excess deaths figures which continue to bubble away without any government panic, let alone investigation.<\/p>\n<p>If only someone would model the deaths instead of reporting on actual ones, then something would be done about it.<\/p>\n<p>For now, it\u2019s left to the conspiracy theorists to ponder what\u2019s behind them. And they are getting closer to the truth.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>To be honest, the collapse of these supranational policies is occurring so fast, it resembles the end of every <em>Star Wars<\/em> movie, when two hours of accumulated problems and challenges suddenly evaporate in one fell victorious swoop of a spaceship, leaving no loose ends to worry about.<\/p>\n<p>But there always has to be another sequel, right?<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>The collapse of so many campaigns has been very amusing, especially for the people who manage to avoid the disastrous consequences of all the government policies gone wrong.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not so funny for German factory workers who burn wood to keep warm in winter as their employer moves to Texas or China. Nor for the Irish who can\u2019t go to their favourite pub for fear of being mugged.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m moving to Japan, where a lot of this chicanery simply doesn\u2019t fly. And my Japanese isn\u2019t good enough to understand what sort of nonsense the local politicians get up to instead.<\/p>\n<p>But, let me tell you, they know what a woman is.<\/p>\n<p>**********<\/p>\n<p>For those of you stuck living in a Western democracy, especially in Europe, the consequences are plain to see.<\/p>\n<p>People are taking to the streets and abandoning the mainstream political parties like it matters who you vote for.<\/p>\n<p>This is where the situation gets dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>A 2022 survey found trust in government in the EU had fallen from 4.7 out of 10 to 3.6. Can you imagine what it is at now?<\/p>\n<p>For those of you who feel vindicated by all the transformations going on around you, don\u2019t. Because they aren\u2019t finished with you yet.<\/p>\n<p>I want to raise the old adage about dangerous and being cornered. It applies to our leaders, including the ones behind the curtains.<\/p>\n<p>Can they really stomach such a defeat across the board without raising the stakes? Or are we going to discover a new disease, asteroid, or social cause imminently to justify a new round of eye-watering government intervention in our lives?<\/p>\n<p>What would you do if you were Klaus Schwab and your agenda began to melt away?<\/p>\n<p>Do the do-gooders slink back into their Swiss caves, universities and think tanks whence they came?
