The benefits from earlier legislation will not materialize if these new measures are not taken.

In effect: liberalisation does NOT work so let's liberalise more in the hope that it will.
I cannot find a simpler description of the ideological, non-reality-based nature of the liberalisation drive.

I think "inconsistencies and lies" falls short as a characterisation. This is classic quackery where a remedy is prescribed on the basis of faulty theories and when the remedy doesn't work it is blamed either on insufficient dosage or on mistakes by the patient. And when the patient gets better on their own, as often is the case, the charlatan takes the credit.

So "free market quackery on Energy from the European Commission's charlatans" might be a better title.

but you don't get published in the FT with such titles... lol (not that mine would pass muster either, though. Hmmm; maybe we can do the switch)
