Windmills of the Mind

Benefits of Wind Powered Generators  overstated by Promoters

Yawn, yawn! Did anyone out there ever suspect the outcome was going to be anything other than this, as lone voices crying in the wilderness tried to wake us all up to what was going on. First and foremost the Telegraph Columnist Christopher Booker, who consistently wrote to expose the humbug and insouciance, which pervades this matter, as the hucksters piled in to milk the system?

  Is there no one in government with the wit or perspicacity to get to the nub of these things and ask the questions which need to be answered, before the government embarks on programmes that most of the population could have enlightened them about, in the wink of an eye. But always, out of the blue comes a seminal moment, when the blindingly obvious exposes the fraud which has been perpetrated on the taxpaying masses, as a simple fact emerges and the hype is exposed for all to see.

  Did we really have to spend a million bucks to bring home the bacon in the shape of this £900,000 windfall to the wind farmers to shut down for just one day and receive a pay-off, which teeters on the edge of lunacy? To prove what certain pundits have been telling us for the best part of a decade and as Derek Jameson, a former tabloid editor might have remarked - ‘you couldn’t make up.’

  But someone did and it happened for the entire world, to see in living colour, the absolute stupidity with which government approaches the business of spending our money. Though the people who really need to be exposed are the consultants hired on mega-buck contracts to advise all these ministers and their cohorts who cannot think for themselves and are liability we can no longer afford.

  It must be time to pull down the shutters on this maddening eyesore of a business plan and build a sustainable nuclear generating presence, which will see us through the next millennium, in the most efficient and cost effective way that modern science can devise. If the French can do it, I'm sure it's not beyond the wit and intellect of our world beating scientists and financial wizards to come up with a sensible solution before the lights go out. 

You know it makes sense, watch this space I’ll be back!

Tom.
