The EU emissions targets imposed by an unelected regime on member states leading to sin taxes on carbon? Absolutely. Let’s put the imposition of carbon taxes on our citizens to a referendum. Except the EU would not allow that would they?

Except the EU would not allow that would they? I voted for representatives to vote on my behalf to fill those positions. Did you vote specifically for each ministerial position or rely on the elected members of Dail Eireann figuring it out?

Please tell us? Given the roles they occupied, the electorate of the European Union via their heads of state. Between Brexiteer mentality, no interest in positive action on climate change, Trump cheering, all we're missing is a shout out for Peter Casey for a full house. It's really all too stereotypical.
