Summary
Lois Perry is a political activist, media commentator, and Executive Director of Heartland Institute UK & EU, known for her fierce opposition to Net Zero policies, government overreach, and media bias, advocating for free speech, energy independence, and political reform.
In this interview, we discuss how the UK government is using climate hysteria to justify skyrocketing energy costs, oppressive taxation, and economic destruction. Lois explains why British energy prices are the highest in Europe, how taxpayers are funding massive green subsidies, and how the political elite are exploiting the climate agenda to maintain control. Perry, a well-known campaigner against government overreach, has taken on climate scientists, exposed the hypocrisy of politicians like Ed Miliband, and argued against the ideological push behind net zero.
