Death cult

In the real world the UK is in the middle of a heatwave and may record the highest ever temperature seen here. In the real world climate change will cause events like this to become increasingly common. In the real world, people will die, in significant numbers because of this.

In the real world, it is really fucking obvious that addressing climate change is an urgent problem.

Meanwhile, in tory-wannabe-leader fantasy world, they're saying that, well, net zero may be too expensive. Because, in tory-wannabe-leader fantasy world, it is more important to keep a bunch of decrepit elderly voters who don't believe in climate-change happy than to give their grandchildren and great-grandchildren a future. In tory-wannabe-leader fantasy world climate change is someone else's problem. In tory-wannabe-leader fantasy world climate change doesn't really exist. In tory-wannabe-leader fantasy world no-one gives a fuck about their own children and grandchildren's future, because it's all about them.

Can we call the tory party what it is now? Because the tory party is a death cult.
