Who are the politicians?

According to an article by Robert Mendick and Edward Malnick in The Sunday Telegraph today,

"In October, a flagship Conservative policy, which would have required local referendums on large-scale projects such as wind farms and housing estates, was quietly abandoned after intense lobbying by RenewableUK. "

Who were the politicians who made the decision to give way to the lobbyists? And did they have any links (family or otherwise) to the wind industry?

We need to know.

The article also describes how the wind energy industry "drafted in eco-activists to drum up support for wind farm projects in the face of local opposition."
(The Windbyte website has some good examples of this kind of behaviour)

As we keep saying - how can anyone call such "eco-activists" Green?

Incidentally, we have a page on our website that lists more politicians who have spoken out against wind farms - in addition to the 106 who wrote to David Cameron. There are some surprising names included, and it is a work in progress, so if you know of any more please contact us.

Good for Donald Trump!

His mother was born in Scotland. My mother was born in England, but her parents came from Scotland, and if she and they were still alive, I know they would be horrified to see the destruction that is being wreaked on this most beautiful country.

ITV last night

There was a programme last night on ITV called "The cost of going Green". It was good that they raised the subject but frustrating to watch, as they were not very critical of claims about wind power. For example, they went to the island of Eigg, and talked about the way the island is self-supporting in electricity, but failed to mention the fact that when there was a drought with little wind, the islanders had to go back to using generators (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/energy/hydro_electricenergy/7858960/Power-rationed-on-green-island-Eigg-after-mild-weather-causes-drought.html)

Hundreds attend protest in Anglesey

"HUNDREDS of wind turbine protesters rallied outside Anglesey council – as the local authority announced it would temporarily halt debating applications.

Campaigners marched on the council offices in Llangefni yesterday, reflecting the growing anger over the proliferation of “monster” turbines across the island countryside. Protesters also voiced concerns over biomass and bio gas proposals on the island."

Windfarms and the Rape of Britain

Listen to Struan Stevenson MEP in this video.

"In his hard-hitting booklet, Struan Stevenson MEP demonstrates how Britain is being raped by the current mad race for renewable energy sources, and particularly by wind power. The manic scramble is responsible for the rape of Britain. "
