Whitesince63 Posted February 27 Posted February 27 1 hour ago, Cheese said: Yet your preference for Government would be the party responsible for the last 2 decades of "manufacturing job losses", even though the policy you blame was only introduced 2 months ago... You seem a bit confused. Have you considered that the world is moving on from Fossil Fuels, and most future energy manufacturing jobs will be in renewables? Really, care to prove that statement? China using more coal and oil than at anytime in history, ditto India, Russia, the US and Indonesia using the drill baby drill memo too. Only idiots like the EU and UK are doubling down on renewables which will never offer either the reliability or low cost that fossil fuels currently provide. Our manufacturing base has been hollowed out by incompetent governments for the last 20 years and the only beneficiaries are the major polluters named above and if you’re too thick to see that then there’s little hope for you. Used sensibly renewables are clearly beneficial but when you have complete numpties like Millibrain intent on pursuing his stupid and damaging policies whatever the cost it’s no wonder this country is heading for bankruptcy. It seems though that even the EU are finally recognising the lunacy of the policy and are rowing back so how long before the UK is forced to do the same? Quote

You need to “do more research” because China is leading the way. Quote

Maybe it was your last paragraph about the world moving on from fossil fuels and jobs moving to renewables, both totally wrong as I’ve just explained. Quote

Spider Posted February 27 Posted February 27 “Idiots” like the UK and EU are planning for a future where we can enjoy the benefits of energy sources that don’t pollute, are endless and secure humankind for as long as we don’t want to blow ourselves to smithereens. Fortunately, people in Wetherspoons aren’t the ones deciding. Yet. Quote

Cheese Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Old duffers like @Whitesince63 think the world should still be run on coal and horses and slavery. Thank fuck they're dying out. Quote

The Chinese just get on with it and don’t have to put up with folk gurning about the good old days of smog and lungs like charcoal. As I say, fortunately this type of thinking is dying out naturally so it’s mainly just the final bark of an elderly dog that has to drag its legs behind itself on a trolley. Quote

The Yangtze hydroelectric dam is the most dramatic project in China Get Shit Done philosophy. Millions displaced and slowing rotation of the earth. Biblical still use more coal than any one else though 😉 Quote

You've just made an absolute tit of yourself tonight. Though it is Friday to be fair. China (for all their faults) know the direction we are heading. Excellent to see the UK and EU still doubling down. We need to up our pace. Proud to live in a country that takes this issue seriously. I hope it's a policy that does Reform damage. Quote

Ani Posted February 27 Posted February 27 2 hours ago, London Wanderer said: Good speech to be fair A bit of Tony Wilson at the end. She came across well. Is the Green vote a by election ‘protest’ vote or something that would carry into a GE. Hopefully the Labour and Conservatives leadership can see that people are just desperate for something positive to latch onto, so rather than spending most of their time infighting and slagging others off they can start to present something positive. Labour need to sort the economy , NHS and continue to cut the levels of unnecessary immigration as delivery will be more important than word and slogans which Westminster as a whole seems to have forgotten.
