Gretawashing

A new word has recently been birthed and is going around. It’s as yet not made it into the Oxford Dictionary but, unless a infamous Sturgeon injunction is applied, it may make the next edition.  

Perhaps lacking in aesthetics much like both parties involved but, unlike both parties, rich in contents … this new word us……..GRETAWASHING 

Meaning … Gretawashing - when a cynical and unprincipled politician seeks to present as sincere and principled , with regard to climate change,  by exploiting the proximity of Greta Thunberg, pathetically holding on to the coattails of a young girl to further your own stalled cause. Verb- to Gretawash 

Greta has chosen an odd bedfellow in Nicola Sturgeon who’s only interest in being at, opps…sorry I should insert “wandering the halls and corridors” at is to get traction in publicity for Scottish Independence. 



The oddness of the pair comes about by the Greta marionette jangling along side the Sturgeon who in 2014 campaigned hard with Alex Salmond with their secession plans focused on North Sea oil and nowadays they campaign for a Scottish Independence that would guarantee pushing Scotland off the decarbonisation path for lack of funding!

Want to argue the fact? Then please show me in their “2018 Sustainable Growth Commission report” which is their new economic blueprint (just as the fairy tale White Paper wax in 2014) where there is a cost analysis of the decarbonisation for Scotland! Take your time, look carefully now … but you won’t find it cause it ain’t there! 


The average cost of upgrading and retrofitting an existing single home to be compatible with Net Zero ranges from £10,000 to £19,000…as part of the U.K. grants will be provided, as an Indy Scotland where does this expense factor into their calculations? 


It is understandable the puppet Greta has been taken in with this Nationalist con trick leading her on a fools errand with this bunch, or I should say her handlers are as Greta just follows whoever pulls her strings and writes her scripts. Sturgeon has been feeding the airwaves with a narrative that she has green credentials, even making a deal with the (no so) Scottish Green Party who are also very aware of this deceit and complicit in it by pulling the wool over their kale munching supporters. 


Source for info can be found in the most recent OBR fiscal risks report which analysis has lengthy, detailed sections dedicated to examining the government budget implications of dealing with the coronavirus pandemic and climate change.  This document and the OBR are recognised by the Scottish Government with never factored into their printed fairy tales
