  When this country has experienced it's first few blackouts it's then that people will be asking the question "Why oh why didn't we start fracking years ago and stop the obsession with building more windmills and useless solar arrays?".
  By then, of course, it will be too late - the damage will have been done. The consequences are too painful to even think about. The City of London's position as a World financial centre will have been dealt a fatal blow. Other business and firms up and down the country will suffer losses which will put them out of business creating hundreds of thousands of unemployed.
  Energy is the most important issue that faces us all over the next few years which one reason I won't be voting this time round.
  The ridiculous position of the labour party is so potty on this issue that only a complete moron would fall for the ramblings of those who think that we can get through this by freezing energy bills and building more "renewables".
  As for the tories, well they're a lost cause in all this and are determined to confuse the issue and prevaricate and do nothing. They have signed a deal to build a nuclear plant which would produce the World's most expensive electricity. The tools!
  Then we have the salt in the wounds rubbed in by some new eco-development supposedly researching "clean" forms of energy on what was a perfectly productive coal mine.
  It's an insult to white elephants.
  Energy policy is run by the likes of Greenpeace, WWF and the RSPB.
  Madness.
