FFS we are still wasting £billions on constructing less than useless archaic, ephemeral technology (bird mincers) which our forbears (mainly the Victorians) <b>dismissed as soon as they found how to harness steam power.</b><br /><br />Crude oil price /barrel going to $36, we should be cheering but we can't, it only brings into sharp focus the paucity of UK energy policy because it pushes into the future all prospects of building effective new build plant generation.<br /><br />Stuffed are the turkeys - the consumer and industry goes off shore.<br /><br />Desperation, it takes all the energy out of me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32841798.post-35066687883869662582016-03-04T08:11:47.892+00:002016-03-04T08:11:47.892+00:00It's a curious point of view to suppose a prop...It's a curious point of view to suppose a proper full-on heavy metal kinetic shooting war would depress oil prices; I should have thought smashed pipelines, bombed refineries & ports and wellheads on fire would be more the order of the day. Remember the first gulf war?<br /><br />You don't even need an expensive airforce to smash a pipeline. One mentalist Jhadi with a pipe bomb, boom-boom (pun fully and excruciatingly intended).
