    All council homes are insulated, it's private rental & private homes that aren't. So what is this women talking about.

    Insulating Britain, is a red herring to fool the British Public that these people really give a dam. They are Climate Change activist who are using the housing issue because no one is listening to them on Climate Change Green taxes that we will all have to pay on top of the huge energy hikes because of the massive Green taxes on Solar and Wind produced( if it ever works) energy. They are talking bullshit.

    If we didn't have to build so many homes as fast as possible because of mass immigration we would be able to build the fewer number with better insulation. Also, no doubt, Insulate Britain is left and pro-immigration yet don't want see the countryside built on

    why as a tax payer would I give money to home owners to insulate there homes. Do what most do, get a f88king job and insulate your home with your own money and stop whining that it should be the government who pay for this.

    A majority think it is green crap. It should be driven by building control and planning. All new houses to have solar and storage. But wait, the grid can’t cope! Diesel engines never been as clean but now we bring back coal. Electric car that polite more in there first 8 years just in time for battery to be replaced. There has been no joined up thinking to this crazy shite.

    I work on new builds and the amount of Insulation is ridiculous. On a typical suspended floor you have 125ml foil backed insulation under the floor, 25ml insulation around the outer walls where they meet to concrete floor, insulation wrapped around Internal drainage coming up threw the floor, 100 ml rock wool insulation in the cavity below damp and then all the rest that follow the walls and roof. Even more insulation if you have a block and beam spec. Ridiculous

    This person from Insulate Britian has an opinion (nothing wrong with that at all), but it doesn't mean they are correct, and it certainly doesn't mean everyone else is wrong. Time to grow up?

    All this insulation of homes hype is rubbish! As an 85-year-old guy I was talked into having my bungalow super insulated, end result, I have to use my heating just as much, but in a different way i.e. Once the bungalow is warm the insulation keeps the heat in pretty well, but once the bungalow cools, then I have to put the heating on even though the sun has come out & it is nice and warm outside. Yes, the insulation keeps the heat in, it also keeps the heat out! Before the bungalow was super insulated, I used to nature's free heat…. The other downside of insulation is that the bungalow now feels stuffy as though there is insufficient air. It's not a healthy feeling and with this in mind, I am now considering having the bungalow de-insulated………

    January 5, 2024 at 6:42 pm

    I don't understand why any new house built doesn't have either good insulation, or solar panels to both the whole of the roof, or walls. Solar panels still generate some electricity even on cloudy days.

    I live in a new build in the UK. It is too hot all year round, so it is not more insulation we need but less.
    A house that is too hot is not good.
    I can't have the heating on for more than 15.minutes a day in winter as it is so hot.
    Previously I lived in a top floor flat in a converted mid 1700s build workhouse. The walls were so thick, that again having heating on in the middle of winter was unbearable for more than 15 minutes.a.day.
    So really don't know what they are talking about, why do such houses need more insulation
    I would rather less, so that they weren't do.unbearably hot.

    How ecologically sustainable is the production and distribution of all this insulation?
    I hope it’s less harmful than the production of solar panels and wind turbines. After all, if the production and distribution of these so called green solutions has a negative overall environmental effect in the long term, we are ultimately crapping in our own nest by mandating their adoption…. aren’t we?

    Look at how the lefties that push this twaddle always use unsustainable technology to push their agenda. Look at everything in the shot… painted walls, whiteboard, picture frames with glass, electric lights etc…
    Shouldn’t they all be living naked in caves eating bugs and whatever other raw foods they can forage?
    Why have they got computers, modern housing etc? Why aren’t they out there showing us how to get back to having no carbon footprint? Lead by example or stop complaining.

Zia Yusuf delivers a scathing critique of both the Conservative and Labour parties, accusing them of failing the British public on immigration and foreign aid. In this explosive segment, the Reform UK Home Affairs spokesperson claims the country has experienced “the biggest wave of untrammelled mass immigration ever seen,” placing the blame squarely on successive governments.

Yusuf outlines why Reform UK is launching a new inquiry into what he calls the “Boriswave,” arguing that border policies under recent leadership have left the UK exposed. He raises concerns about public safety, national priorities, and whether the current system is truly serving the interests of the British people.

The triple lock timebomb and why UK pensions are more at risk than ever before…

In this week’s Chopper’s Political Podcast, Christopher Hope is joined by Tom Harwood and Katherine Forster to examine the growing debate around the UK state pension and the “triple lock.”

With Reform UK now joining other major parties in backing the policy, the discussion explores why the triple lock remains politically untouchable, despite rising concerns over its long-term cost. The panel breaks down how the system works, why it was introduced, and how it has helped reduce pensioner poverty, while also raising questions about fairness between generations.

They also look at the mounting financial pressures facing the UK, including the rising cost of pensions, slow economic growth, and an ageing population. Could the triple lock become unsustainable in the future? And if so, what alternatives might be considered?
