Think?  this bunch?

Not on your Nellie.

Ideology before common sense.

Don't worry, we will eventually be a clean energy super-power.

And after spending eleventy trillion on becoming that super-power, we will get 300 quid off our energy bill. 

[youngmafbog]

Of course we will. 🙄

[mushroom25]

from the BBC:- // The government said it monitors energy levels and says it has "all tools" at its disposal "if needed to secure our supply".//

yeh they could erect some scaffolding towers next to a few windmills, and get some MPs to climb up and blow on the windmill vanes. that would do it, wouldn't it? there's certainly little to no wind to turn them at the moment.

Currently

Gas 54.7%

Solar 1.1%

Wind 9.3%

Hydro 1.5%

Nuclear 10.9

Biomass 5.8%

So what is mad Milliband doing, oh yes building more Windmills and Solar.  Gurning idiot.

When the chickens finally come home to roost, there will be a lot of denial and finger pointing. Lessons will be learned etc.

Get this   ...   when the windmills are idle because there is no wind, and it is freezing, they need to be supplied with power to stop them from seizing up and self destructing if the wind starts to blow again. When they cut off families because of the lack of generated electricity they priorites the windmills that are standing idle. Now if that is not madness I don't know what is. We were cut of twice this morning in this area and the hundreds of windmills out, at sea that were standing still, had power supplied to them.
