Unfortunately foreign interests and corrupt politicians currently prevent us from getting it out of the ground and thus ensure our dependency on expensive foreign energy.

Somehow we need to rid ourselves of that corruption and start drilling and fracking.
Tons? I don't think so, trillions of cubic metres or cubic feet perhaps?

Well, at least it's still there and it's ours.
We still have millions of tons of coal as well.
No-one can take it away from us!

When some common sense eventually emerges, perhaps we'll take advantage of what we still have.

The only rumbling is coming from Greta and her eco-warriors.

Eh? I'm concerned about a) the environment and b) the structural stability of our islands. What's that to do with the establishment? They care about neither.

I think it's time that they invented a better way to power our lifestyle. They should build more nuclear power stations for a start.

Hi

I have to disagree Annie.

The costs of dealing with Fission Waste are horrendous.

Wind, solar and tidal are the way forward.

The oil are gas are resources we need for millennia for petrochemicals, far too valuable to be burnt.
