New Green Deal: Bricks Manufacturers Given $500 Million

Legonian manufacturers will be given large subsidies to convert to clean energy.

The Legonian New Green Deal budget has set aside $500 million Bricks dollars to subsidise local bricks manufacturers to use renewable materials.

The Legonian Bricks, a large bricks manufacturer, said that the firm will receive $35 million Brick dollars to convert its machines to newer ones, and to purchase renewable raw materials.

"Currently our company use plastics made from fossil fuels to produce bricks. But with the Royal government assistance and subsidy, we can use renewable materials to produce cleaner Bricks", said a company spokesman.

Local companies have welcomed the government subsidies. "These subsidies are good, making our industry more energy and climate friendly", said Lord Banclus, owner of Bricks Manufacturing private limited. 

Opposition member of parliaments had opposed the New Green Deal, claiming it is a socialist agenda. There were heated exchanges between the opposition and the Royalist Party government in Parliament yesterday.

"The government is interfering in private businesses by giving these subsidies. We should leave businesses to their own devices. These New Green Deals also cost the kingdom a lot of money, which is better spent elsewhere. Our country will be in debt soon with these massive spending", said Donald Macconnel, a member of the opposition party in parliament yesterday.

In his reply to Macconnel, Prime Minister Sir Winston Mofty said that socialism or capitalism is good as long as it serves the people.

"You can call it socialism or capitalism, or whatever you like. But this government will put policy that serves the people and we do not care what it is called. The New Green Deal will add more than 100,000 new jobs, expand our economy and reduce air pollution. Are you opposing these just because you think they are socialist measures", said Sir Mofty.

Macconnel replied he is opposed to socialism. Prime Minister Sir Mofty shot back: "So the opposition opposed the New Green Deal just because, I repeat, just because of their political belief only. They do not care if the policies work as long as their political belief is not affected. So we let the public decide which party works for the people, and which party is self-serving".

On Macconnel's claim that Legonia will face large debt, Sir Mofty replied: " Our country does not have any debt currently. This budget cost $25 billion a year for the next 10 years. The government revenue is expected to be about $120-$155 billion a year. The opposition is spreading lies and fear, or they are bad in maths".   

Polls show that 75% of Legonians support the New Green Deal as long as jobs are protected, or if pollution can be reduced.

    A Lego fan who collected bricks since school days. The buildings, vehicles and in ships are designed and built by me. Not perfect but something which I am proud of.
