Imagine if your power mad politicians liked Covid Lockdowns so much, they wanted to continue them indefinitely. This is going to be trialled in Oxfordshire in Britain.

Oxfordshire County Council Pass Climate Lockdown ‘trial’ to Begin in 2024

Oxfordshire County Council yesterday approved plans to lock residents into one of six zones to ‘save the planet’ from global warming. The latest stage in the ’15 minute city’ agenda is to place electronic gates on key roads in and out of the city, confining residents to their own neighbourhoods.

Under the new scheme if residents want to leave their zone they will need permission from the Council who gets to decide who is worthy of freedom and who isn’t. Under the new scheme residents will be allowed to leave their zone a maximum of 100 days per year, but in order to even gain this every resident will have to register their car details with the council who will then track their movements via smart cameras round the city.

Communism will make the weather better.

And this is what China is actually researching the social aspects of.

No help there. It'll be enforced with automated systems like they do with speed cameras:

"Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras will be installed to monitor vehicles going through the traffic filters. Traffic signs will identify the location of each traffic filter, including operational hours and vehicles that are exempt to travel through."

"Any vehicle that goes through the traffic filter and is not exempt, will be charged a penalty of £70."

That’s because only the government people have cars in the DPRK.

And that’s how they want it to work here...

Sounds Jim Dandy to me as I am sure your 15 minute cities are going to be economically segregated. Mine will have restaurants, cinemas, parks, and upscale living with river views. Yours will be a food dessert with an oil refinery on one side, a landfill on the other and an airport on the third.. Of course you will be allowed to ride your bike over to my 15 minute city to scrub my toilet and wash my windows. I of course will from time to time take a seat, drop the window shade and ride the train, first class car of course, over to that airport to catch a plane to the Costa del Sol.

Hopefully, the citizens’ response makes “The Troubles” look like a vicious game of pinochle.

Of course, your own particular 15-minute city HOA Citizen Overwatch Board will have to approve any new citizens moving into your zone. And that will depend on the applicant's ESG score (and bank balance).

“A lot of retirees who purchased recreational vehicles and
trailers are in for some interesting times, while they
make their second mortgages sitting at home.”

That is where assisted suicide comes in. Justin Trudeau already has a plan. Crippled from serving your country and need a chair lift? No problemo. We don’t have money for that Hon but we can help you kill yourself. Just relax it will only take a minute. We can’t humanely kill that murdering serial pedophile but we can dispatch you!

Yeah automatic number plate recognition! You don’t think anyone will be stealing license plates do you?

This has to be a joke! Whatever is causing climate change/global warming/global cooling is going to be a respecter of gates? What would make more sense is to line up the council members and hold target practice...but I guess citizens don’t have access to weapons, do they? Too bad!

I don’t disagree. I was addressing another issue.

Retirees are spending $50k to $1 million to purchase motor
homes and camping trailers for use during their retirement.

What happens when the government raises the gate to their
community and refuses to let them travel?

They’ll sit at home make massive payments on their dream,
and have to watch those years slip by, their equipment
suddenly worthless.

I lived in the UK in the seventies. I drove in Oxford then. Today it is much different. The traffic is unsustainable. I today parked in a lot and took a bus into Oxford and it was okay. However, the laws the local council are wanting to implement are the insane tyranny of the left.

Perhaps you understood me fine.

Maybe I didn’t understand where you were coming from
assisted suicide since they can’t enjoy their retirement
anyway.

Remember the progressive agenda on guns, as well as the UN Agenda 2030 which calls for ALL GUNS held by citizens to be confiscated.

If one wishes to live as a free man, one must be willing to die as a free man.

Hard choices coming our way.

Well, they have disarmed the citizens, so I guess it won’t be too difficult to impose. Maybe the residence need to study up on what the Irish did to resist British

I wonder how well that will work when some local yokel decides to shoot up a power Sub Station? Asking for a FRiend.
