HAS anybody watched the television programme Windfarm Wars?

Talk about a rigged deck, but the widest my eyes were opened was during the planning appeal when it was pointed out that, although the requirement is for a secure and reliable supply, the company installing the turbines has only to show that the installed capacity is as designed.

The machines don’t have to generate at all.

One of the objectors, a retired MD of British Rail, pointed out the real reason. He had spoken to someone in the wind industry who agreed that nuclear power is the only way forward, but wind systems make a greater profit.

When will our supposed betters take technical advice and act on it and stop playing fast and loose with the countryside?
