One of Union Jack investor's, Ribeye, posted on Drill an Drop today. 'ill health' being caused by energy poverty. Very sad and the reality kicking in now and like yourself, Paul1DEANO, really going to hurt people's pockets.
IF West Newton planning gets refused it will be shocking .....

As a middle class professional with a marginal tax rate just under 50%, seeing tax revenue producing projects come to fruition is a blessing. I am also now seeing ill health in my patients due to energy poverty for the first time. This is Britain in the 21st Century.
If we don’t produce our own oil and gas, we still consume every bit as much. We just have to export more money and tax ourselves more, and have less money to invest in transition technology and and energy production from alternative sources.
Those desperately trying to impoverish us for no tangible benefit, then expect people like me to pay even more tax to fill the huge holes created by their hysterical folly.
I grew near Britain’s 3rd largest onshore oil field, and none of us even knew it was there.'
