If XR or Insulate Britain try this we'll see more of what happened in Canning Town and some very flat blood stains on the road as truckers have momentary brake failure.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141297358269863170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-48369605443248815482021-11-24T12:11:10.419+00:002021-11-24T12:11:10.419+00:00Indeed, a bit of intelligent looking etc. Locall...Indeed, a bit of intelligent looking etc. Locally some doubtful chaps with a cherry picker wanted access to a pole in a field next door. No documentation etc, told to buzz off. Phoned power company who revealed 'thanks v much, we get a fair bit of this'. Apparently there are power companies within power companies if you know what I mean...<br /><br />Whilst travelling in a nice warm country I did notice several shacks with long bamboo poles with two hefty copper hooks hanging off the 2 wire feeder. Jolly good luck to them thought I.jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00470816959796395467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-71758030963522284662021-11-24T12:09:14.770+00:002021-11-24T12:09:14.770+00:00Yes, Greenpeace has had an officer class for a lon...Yes, Greenpeace has had an officer class for a long time, some decent sailors and climbers.<br /><br />E-K - if you want to see anti-white propaganda in statistics, use google or BBC News search for "Kriss Donald" - objectively a far "worse" murder, a 15 year old boy kidnapped, tortured and burned alive - and "Stephen Lawrence". <br /><br />The schools don't help, either - our education system produces young people like this - and that's BEFORE this report was implemented.

I suspect Head Office may be a more plausible target than hardware: but then again, Greenpeace has a history of 'accessing' hardware, even offshore. Remember, the thesis is about an officer-class emerging. & Cambo action probably wouldn't risk a bullet ...<br /><br />As regards P/Ls: yes, onshore P/Ls (in this country) are mostly buried, outside of perimeter-secured plant. HOWEVER, (a) if you know what you're looking at there are many above-ground roadside manifestations along the route; (b) there is a long history of very professional theft (by E.Europeans / Nigerians et al, from countries where it is indeed a profession) of oil from P/Ls, including digging down to get access to buried lines. AND including it happening in the UK, though it's not much talked about.<br /><br />Gas is, errr, a different proposition - as regards theft, that is.<br /><br />(Of course in many countries P/Ls etc are as open & vulnerable as it's possible to imagine, see James Bond passim.

Here in the UK big gas lines are buried, it is a fair drag for Swampy to dig one up and making a hole with a B&D drill is a bit up close and personal. If you can't get the Semtex then going much damage is difficult and short lived - pointless. Control stations might be a bit easier but I think that base is covered.<br /><br />As for overseas pipelines, well Swampy would stick out like a sore thumb and the locals are not likely to be too keen. Further, the land and nation owners are likely to have a very personal interest in only allowing permitted and paid for tap-offs. Anyone messing with the flow of cash is likely to find a bullet.<br /><br />Just possibly the Green movement could raise awareness etc in the host nation - but a hard job to convince the locals that taking a beating and a bullet for a few privileged Caucasoids is a good idea. Anyway, the bus pass does not extend as far as Africa - so stay in bed.jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00470816959796395467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-71181584780399299462021-11-23T19:48:50.155+00:002021-11-23T19:48:50.155+00:00I think that Nick should perhaps mention that Camb...I think that Nick should perhaps mention that Cambo is a potential new oil field off the north east coast.

An even larger amount of gas is used domestically and in industry. Another 1.5GW a<br />is from coal, and Boris says those will be gone by 2024.<br /><br />Very little of this electricity is used for heating, whereas nearly all the domestic and industrial gas is.<br /><br />We will need a LOT more electricity, both to power the heat pumps which, in the Future Homes Standard Disaster, coming to a development by you in 2025, will heat all new builds, and also to power all our electric cars. Each pump uses around 1.5kw, on pretty much full time, and charging even a dinky little VW Up will need a cooker-style 10-15kw connection.<br /><br />But gas is more efficiently used in domestic central heating systems than in power stations - condensing boilers are 90%+ efficient, gas power stations 55-60% efficient.<br /><br />Meanwhile there are only seven nuclear power stations in the UK, all of which are slated to have closed by 2035 and half by 2024.<br /><br />"At the peak in 1997, 26% of the nation's electricity was generated from nuclear power."<br /><br />New ones will apparently be built by EDF, who have been having terrible tech issues with their new designs. There's also the small matter that every nuclear plant in France and presumably some elsewhere contain large steel forgings, the manufacturer of which has been fiddling the quality figures for 50 years.<br /><br />https://www.wsj.com/articles/problems-at-nuclear-components-supplier-spark-global-reviews-1481625005<br /><br />Our green new future's going to be great!
