Grüne Milliardäre finanzieren einflussreiche neue Labour-Netto-Null-Gruppe

Labour Party political elites in the UK are showing their support for a new green campaign group called Labour Climate and Environment Forum (LCEF). The group aims to tackle climate and ecological breakdown through a collectivist Net Zero solution. However, it is important to note that such elite organisations do not arise from grassroots movements. LCEF is funded by the European Climate Fund (ECF) and Clean Air Fund (CAF), both of which are supported by Extinction Rebellion (XR) paymaster Sir Christopher Hohn. Gower Street, a fund that is currently supporting an offshoot of XR, is also involved.

LCEF is led by Paul McNamee, who has previously worked for the Green Alliance and London Mayor Sadiq Khan. The Advisory Board includes Polly Billington, a former BBC journalist and key adviser to Ed Miliband in the previous Labour Government. Billington was instrumental in establishing the local government network UK100, which targets local authorities to accelerate Net Zero with anti-car activities. It is worth noting that public consent for such restrictions is not a priority for these organisations.

The funding for LCEF and other green groups comes from wealthy individuals and organisations, such as the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation, Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisers, and Oak Foundation. These groups aim to influence lawmakers and push for the collectivisation of the economy and human society. The availability of large amounts of money allows them to fund various green schemes and technologies. Similarly, the Conservative Party has its own Caucus promoting extreme Net Zero ideas, funded by green billionaires and led by the Conservative Environment Network (CEN).

LCEF has links with the Green Alliance, an independent think tank and charity focused on environmental leadership. The Green Alliance dropped funding arrangements with Shell and BP in 2019 and received funding from ECF, Friends of the Earth, and Greenpeace instead. LCEF also receives funding from Gower Street, which supports grantees involved in the Net Zero spectrum. The significant amount of money available to these groups from a small number of wealthy individuals is attracting attention.

Overall, the LCEF operates within the political system to exert influence on undemocratic policies. It does not necessarily need support from the wider labour movement and instead supports certain lifestyles. The funding from wealthy individuals and organisations allows these groups to bypass the wishes of local electorates and push for their own agendas

Green Billionaires Fund Influential New Labour Net Zero Group

Labour Party political elites in the U.K. are flocking to support a new green campaigning group called Labour Climate and Environment Forum (LCEF). At its launch last year, senior Labour politicians present included Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves and former leader and Net Zero champion Ed Miliband. LCEF claims its team comes from all parts of the labour movement as it seeks a collectivist Net Zero solution to tackle “climate and ecological breakdown”. As we have seen in numerous articles in the Daily Sceptic, none of these types of elite organisations arise from the grassroots. LCEF is funded by the European Climate Fund (ECF) and Clean Air Fund (CAF), both supported by Extinction Rebellion (XR) paymaster Sir Christopher Hohn. Also in the
