RESULT OF WIND FARM POLL-SURPRISING RESULTS

The result of the Windfarm poll, are they a good idea was as follows:


  • GOOD IDEA                     44%
  • BAD IDEA                        48%
  • DON'T KNOW                   8%
That's a surprising result.  I would have thought going by your comments that it would have been nearer 80% against.  Maybe we still have to make up our minds!

PENSIONERS FREEZE AS GAS PROFITS SOAR.

British Gas faces a backlash as it prepares to announce a 50 per cent surge in profits on the back of a winter of crippling energy bills.
The UK's largest supplier, with 15.7million customers, has made profits of more than £550million in the past year.


Thousands of elderly, meanwhile, have been unable to afford to keep warm during the coldest winter in 30 years.


So this is Scotland in 2010.  Thanks to Conservative, Labour and Labour/Libthingie's Governments, PENSIONERS ARE FREEZING TO DEATH IN AN ENERGY RICH COUNTRY, SCOTLAND.  It is nothing short of a NATIONAL DISGRACE!  And it doesn't happen in NORWAY, BTW.

IT'S SCOTLAND'S COAL!



Vast coal deposits lying deep beneath the North Sea will be burnt in situ to generate up to 5 per cent of Britain’s energy needs, under new plans approved by the Government last week.


The UK Coal Authority has awarded licences to Clean Coal, an Anglo-American company, to develop five offshore sites for a technology called Underground Coal Gasification (UGC).  The method, which has not been used on a commercial scale in the UK, although it is widely used in Australia, taps the high energy content of coal while doing away with the costly and labour-intensive need to mine it first.

You heard it here first .New slogan for the SNP.  IT'S SCOTLAND COAL!
