The future will be a mixture of reducing supply and demand.<br /><br />There are a myriad of simple ways of reducing demand, such as reducing the intensity and number of street lights, and indeed shutting some down overnight, but that will not help the various "peak" demands, tea-time, Home and Away, Coronation St, Big Brother, et al. If the lazy good for nothings who keep their TVs on standby through sheer laziness and an inability to drag their loathsome and slothful bodies a few feet simply switch off their TVs then as with all other small savings, the numbers would start to mount. Sadly expecting that from some chip-oil and burger fattened slob is probably a thought too far.<br /><br />It is somewhat amusing to listen to the various reptiles of the Press desperately trying to spin a story that the end of civilisation will happen if we switch off street lights when (a) no-one is about in the early hours, and (b) there is far too much illumination during the hours of darkness anyway.<br /><br />Do we really need to illuminate every pig barn in rural Essex for God's sake ?<br /><br />The very people writing this dribble only see the early hours through expenses-paid alcohol induced numbness anyway.<br /><br />A good method of reducing demand would be to sod the Scots and just go straight to double summer time like we had in the early 1970s.<br /><br />No-one really gives a monkeys about a few skirt clad Scotsmen jumping up and down and going on about it being dark in the morning do they ??<br /><br />Anyway I am surprised there are any Scots left up there, most seem to be in England, whinging and moaning yet quite happy to take the money, whilst the remainder are busy learning to live without their Ministerial cars and pretending that they argued with Gordon Brown all along in an attempt to keep themselves from being put against the wall by the PLP in due course.<br /><br />If it means that much to them, let them keep their own version of daylight time, a bit like their money, and their Socialism. Whilst we are at it lets send them back their failed MPs and former Labour Government Ministers. So much for the fanciful hype of Scottish Prudence eh ?<br /><br />Other co-joined Countries throughout the world manage different time zones at their borders, indeed some have internal time zones. Is it really too much for the Scots to manage ? Maybe we could offer it as part of a Devolution package, you know, the one where we simply send them back lock stock and barrel, give them their oil, their own time zone and then we let them sell the Scottish financial "prudence", along with their whisky, their contaminated factory farmed Salmon, their own unique brand of Socialism, and their thuggish football managers and Politicians.Old Timernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-75721447856596950432010-09-26T11:02:05.337+01:002010-09-26T11:02:05.337+01:00@OldTimer, Denverthen

Add to this the proposed extension of railway electrification, and the closure of coal stations for "environmental" reasons, and you have the Political equivalent of Chernobyl.<br /><br />In true Labour-style obfuscation, we lost the window to solve the supply issue about 10 years ago, and even if we start construction power stations at an unprecedented rate there is no way that the UK can supply its forecast electricity demand.<br /><br />The Lib-Dems can say what they want publicly, but the bottom line is that if the public are sitting in the dark with no EastEnders on TV as a result of LibDem politics then they will be confined to the wastelands for ever.Old Timernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-46849557342083856552010-09-25T19:14:02.881+01:002010-09-25T19:14:02.881+01:00BS: the more I hear the LibDums contributions, the...BS: the more I hear the LibDums contributions, the more I agree with you.<br /><br />PB: too much?Jon Lishmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07272058035800593800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-28174374486663757622010-09-25T12:48:21.865+01:002010-09-25T12:48:21.865+01:00I can't quite work out whether you're bein...I can't quite work out whether you're being ironic about Vince's speech..?Pearl Bayonetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-35201877436828805652010-09-23T19:05:18.300+01:002010-09-23T19:05:18.300+01:00I'd welcome that coalition collapse right now,...I'd welcome that coalition collapse right now, D, the only thing that concerns me is that <b><i>"somehow"</i></b>, (rigged poll?)
