Power Cuts .


Britain is facing widespread power cuts for the first time since the 1970s, according to the Government's own predictions.

Demand for electricity from homes and businesses is set to exceed the available supply within eight years.

Now it all makes sense.All this climate change bollocks is just a smokescreen to cover up the fact that Labour have fucked up big time our electricity capacity in this country.They hope that by banning 100watt bulbs they may be able to delay the onset of power cuts until next year when they wont have to worry about it.Decisions should have been made about our generating capacity 10 years ago.Put simply its too late and we are fucked.Perfectly good coal fired power stations are being closed down at the same time that some nuclear reactors are coming to the end of their life.No amount of wind turbines are going to fill the widening energy gap and the fact that Nu Liebore have opened the doors of the country to millions of extra people does not help
the demand side of the equation.
Rising demand+falling generating capacity=fucking disaster.

We went through power cuts in the 70s under a socialist government and we are about to experience them again 40 years later.The only problem is that we are now more dependant on
power in order to maintain basic services.Everything is computerised now and computers dont work very well without power.Pray for a mild winters folks or we could all be in for a very uncomfortable ride over the next few years.
