@ClaireCoutinho I agree with you. It’s just a shame your party started all this nonsense, particularly Theresa May. You yourself were a cheerleader of Net Zero until recently. 14 years. The damage you’ve wrought. Too little too late.
@DaleVince It’ll take some of the load in the middle of the day, in Summer, potentially causing grid problems, when you’re at work, but do nothing when people really need electricity at 6pm in winter. Another gimmick that sounds great to the hard of thinking.
@DaleVince Bollocks. Why are our electricity bills so high then? And don’t blame gas. The cost of wind energy is higher than gas. You can see it in the CfD prices. And that’s before you consider curtailments and grid balancing, needed for wind and solar. And it’s only going one way.
@DaleVince Doesn’t work at night, doesn’t work in the winter when it’s needed (6pm) and then destabilises the grid with surplus in the middle of the Summer. Most people don’t understand as science education is so poor, and grifters like you fill the void, but they see their bills.
@theresa_may You’ve got some brass neck, trying to lie away your appalling legacy. Ed Miliband is merely finishing the demolition job you clowns started. Just disappear, and never come back.
@darrenpjones Sums up you lot up, with your ridiculous sense of hubris. Government doesn’t “create wealth”. In fact, all you do is extract it from the people that do, which is why we’ll be bankrupt soon.
@DaleVince No. It was preposterous to do it with energy, which has now set the precedent. No prices should or can be controlled by the government. It ultimately creates scarcity and misery. The idiot Tories began all this under May.
@darrenpjones You’re lying and gaslighting. The price the government guarantees the renewables providers is way more than gas would be if it was used as primary generation, and didn’t get whacked with carbon taxes. It’s all sleight of hand, and our bills will carry on going up.
@BBCWorld So glad I stopped funding you. You’ve always shielded pederasts, paedophiles and other assorted sexual abusers. Now you seem to be openly promoting them. I didn’t think I could be any more disgusted with you. But you’ve done it again.
@DaleVince So why ban it then? Surely if it’s not worth it nobody would bother drilling for it? You do know electricity is less than 20% of our energy mix? The rest is hydrocarbons. You really are a cretin.
