Don’t Believe The Hype: Britain’s Power Price Hike All Due to Subsidised Wind Power

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Brits are already paying the price for its suicidal renewable energy policies. Under ‘Bonkers’ Boris that price will be positively murderous. His plan to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on subsidies and over-the-market contracts for intermittent offshore wind power beggars belief. And will turn many on the lower rungs into beggars, proper.

And that makes them susceptible to charges of “virtue signalling” and hypocrisy (and maybe ignorance).
P.S. I don’t have a big collection of environment-themed humor, but you can click here, here, here, here, and here for previous examples.
