Thank the Lord the ‘agricultural sector’ has been ‘taken out of play’ (it hasn’t) over the dopey [zero-carbon bill](https://thebfd.co.nz/2019/10/audio-a-climate-denier-on-climate-misinformation/?ref=goodoil.news). It’s just a weasel political ploy, but it now means National must grow some and oppose this idiot legislation on the grounds for which it should be opposed: because it’s **economic sabotage.**

It’s for greens, dopes, mystics, the truly naive and dreamers (all the same thing), to pray to the great god known as plant-food and beg her not to change the weather or send seas crashing over our verandahs; it’s for grown-ups to say ‘settle down – draining our bank accounts will not drain the ocean’.

We simply do not have the extra quarter-trillion (yes, that’s right) dollars the dimwits want to deprive us of by 2050 to get to carbon-zero. Self-flagellation and world-ending doom-spruiking have always been the preserve of lunatics and lefties; and they’re welcome to it, but not to force their self-deprivation on the rest of us. Get off the grass, you bozos.

I think I despise the coalition (to paraphrase a personality often cited here). Come on National – this is your time to stand with the practicals and pragmatics, not with the numpties. Oppose this bill!
