Triton Knoll

Triton Knoll - the UK's largest offshore wind farm. 1200mw of power. It will generate at least £36billion for RWE over the next 25years - not allowing for increases in power prices. What does Lincolnshire get? just some cables underground and two great hulking substations the sizes of 20 football pitches. Is this FAIR?

No to Asserby Wind Farm II

Here we go 
300 Wind Turbines 20miles off the coast so we won't actually see them. 

GOOD. 

1200MW of potential power to power almost 1million homes - GREAT - but they need to connect it all to Grid. 

AS I was saying earlier because the power isn't where it is wanted (not many people in the North Sea!!), we need the infrastructure on the Grid to pipe it in to where it is needed. So very good - does East Lindsey get any benefit? Not really. Then with the CONSTRAINT payments they'll get a whacking payment for NOT supplying any power to Grid - even if the Wind Farm is NOT connected to the Grid. CRAZY.

Abu Qatada Gone

So Abu Qatada is GONE.

Thank you Mrs May

What about his family? They're sponged off the state for years are we STILL paying?

Please tell me that they'll be joining him.

We should gladly buy their tickets.

Bedroom tax makes big house not wanted?

What did I say. Apparently there are loads of bigger houses not wanted. Well here's the rub single Heather Frost needs a very big house with 11 children!

SO what can she do well the council have built her a 6 bedroom detached house just for her and her brood. Of course she lives on benefits - over £30k I understand. (I thought there was a cap?).

So why can't she use one or two of these big empty houses? Doesn't matter where it is 'cos she's unemployed? Or also where are the Fathers? Shouldn't they be contributing to the family or at least some children farmed out amongst their Dad's if she doesn't have room. Some are old enough to live on their own. Maybe the folk with spare bedrooms could take in a child or two that would cover their benefit shortfall and they wouldn't have to move out, is it called fostering?

I despair. What did I say is it Heather's Human Right that we should provide her with a house fit for her family at any expense.

You decide.

Bedroom Tax? I don't get it.

So surprise surprise the "Bedroom Tax" is driving people to small houses and big ones are remaining empty.

Where are all these families that need big houses? It doesn't seem to affect the likes of Mrs Abu Quatada does it. Still living in her mansion in London at the Taxpayers expense? Move her up North - plenty of big houses here and they're much cheaper.

SO how does it work, is it like the Window Tax? That didn't last did it. 
Why don't people share big houses? I shared a house for 3 years when I was a Student. Ever watched Friends? Don't they share? 

But seriously isn't it a Human Right to have a spare bedroom? Surely that should be the limit 
occupants+1 spare room should be paid for by law.

I agree we can't go on funding endless folk living in bigger and bigger houses on benefits. Any way who said that everyone has a Human right to their own house, even if they have no money or job?

Comments please.

Warnings again - the lights will go out

So here we go, I've warned you and now the media are catching on. Because the Government has dithered we are running out of Energy and remember we are at the bottom of a recession Thank God. 

SO what will we do. Build more Wind Turbines!! NOoooooooooooo!

Watch this space I'm going to tell you how to Genereate CASH =- Millions of it. All Legal and honest and not a tax dodge. All paid for by you and me.

Keep Looking.

Wind Farms get paid for NOT generating electricity

WOW am I mad. I found out today that Wind Farms get paid for NOT generating electricity!

Its  bad enough that they are so subsidised to make it worth while in the first place, I've said this before but to actually be told NOT to generate electricity and then get Compensation is MAD!

Its a bit technical but the National Grid pays all Generators compensation if they don't need the electricity they are generating - effectivly throwing it away and compensating them. SO if its too windy and there is loads of Wind Energy and we don't need it they tell them to stop and compensate them. 

CRAZY.

We should use all the Wind Energy and shut down the Coal/Gas/Nuclear/Oil etc.?
