"Well the electorate can see clearly what is happening and will seek redress at the GE, which of course they will refuse to allow anytime soon in the hope that the public has short memories lol."


Suspect some will seek redress such sooner than that GE I fear

I will not shed a tear.

m5 - earlier in school days the smog was even worse - 50 yds would have a been a good day!!!
Cue for posts about frost on the inside of bedroom windows and living in a shoe - always brings a smile!
Coffee time.

"GoldpigUK21 Oct '19 - 17:58 - 279882 of 280002
Think of the years of uncertainty that would be involved if Scotland exits from the UK after over three hundred years. Parliament would spend years and years sorting out Constitutional, financial, commercial, travel, customs, currency, company, health, legal, defence, just about everything. It would consume Parliament for years"

Disagree.
Hard border in the North. Full tariff regime on Scottish imports.
Fair share of National Debt/Assets(and no private property arent in the assets as SNP demand!!!)

Fair share of Oil & Gas.

No FOM. Implement Visa scheme.


Easy peesy.

Alphorn, indeed, so a lot of environmentalists would look down there nose at someone driving a 20 years old V12 Jaguar that he has had from new, but would look kindly on his next door neighbour that drives an eco car and changes it every year. I think you will find that the Jaguar driver is the true planet saver.

I know my mum said that in the 60's she sometimes could not see 50 yards ahead because of the smog in Manchester.

[alphorn] 22/10/2019 09:33

Pierre - true indeed. Doing nothing though can not be the answer?
On a minute personal basis you do have a difference when walking in a (Western) city. When I used to travel to Central London in the 60's my shirt collars were always black in the evening. Some improvement today.

MPs have a very low opinion of the Electorate's ability to do much about how parliament performs, moreover they really don't give a toss when the next General Election is two years away, because they think we're not bright enough to remember what happened two years ago!

[pierre oreilly] 22/10/2019 09:25

Well Alp, even if the co2 hypothesis is correct, the fact that the Uk's total co2 emmissions are less than just the annual increase of China's emissions, i doubt anything the uk does will have any non-insignificant global effect.

This farce over Brexit must end.
It is damaging the economy far more than actually leaving will....
Extension after extension - the sole aim being to overturn the vote result in June 2016.

That happens, it is civil war.
MPs must realise they are playing with fire?

[alphorn] 22/10/2019 09:18

Plenty of views. The environmental cross over point for example if replacing a gas guzzler when taking into account the manufacture and shipping of a new vehicle is many thousands of kms. What benefits the planet and what is business???

[pierre oreilly] 22/10/2019 09:17

max, the whole world is a reality free zone when talking about the environment.

Still i bet greta has a carbon free way of keeping the grid frequency within limits, so all is not lost.

[maxk] 22/10/2019 09:09

This is a reality free zone when talking about the environment Pierre.

Often very poor electricity customers kindly buy my solar power for about £1.08 per kWh. That compares to about £0.03/kWh from nukes.

Thank you. I put the money to good use, benefiting those who deserve it more.

[pierre oreilly] 22/10/2019 08:58

Solar panels are not environmental at all when connected to the local network at penetrations beyond the noise level. Because they are intermittent, the grid has to procure very expensive primary reserve to keep the grid frequency within legal limits. The primary reserve comes from steam plant, i.e. nuke, coal, gas. Solar panels aren't therefore carbon free.

Because this is a largely invisible cost outside grid settlements, it is never taken into account. But you see it in your bills, which keep going up 15/20%pa as more and more 'free' generation like wind and solar are connected.

If the cost of the grid service were apportioned to solar panel owners then the true cost of solar would be seen, and it would be several times the cost of conventional steam plant generation.

Morning Min

"All those students/youth who want to save the planet are not going to become right-wing materialistic consumers anymore. Game's over"

I am sure whilst they are still living at home and living a jolly old life they will stick to their principles, however when the reality of the real World hits them, job, responsibility's, mortgages, family etc, they will become what most people are, and all those protests and anti establishment rhetoric will be a distant memory. It's not like it had not happened before.

[nobilis] 22/10/2019 08:51

Surely hard brexit would tak this down to 40p

[alphorn] 22/10/2019 08:47

Poika - I wonder when the cross over point comes in terms of the environment? i.e. Manufacture and shipment of the installation versus the energy production?
(Normally people only talk of the financial side (10yrs?))

[mikemichael2] 22/10/2019 08:44

Ah, but you will probably have to buy that back at night, still think home storage will be better in time.

[xxxxxy] 22/10/2019 08:43

Remainers are BAD for the economy.LEAVE and WTO

[poikka] 22/10/2019 08:43

MM2 - "Stored energy is coming on in leaps and bounds so not too long now when your panels and storage can supply ALL your electric needs...............No more gas/electric bills!!!"

Or to look at it another way, think of how much you'll be benefiting the environment.

[alphorn] 22/10/2019 08:37

mm2 - thx. As I had mentioned the grids are starting to store excess for you which means having battery packs will no longer be necessary. Amazing equipment btw, panels made in US and the inverters in Germany. All looks super quality.

[mikemichael2] 22/10/2019 08:33

Never fitted a Heat Pump Alp, However if i moved house again (i like doing them up)i might put in an Air Source heat pump and solar panels.
