My alarm bells are ringing louder now....
You see the chief executive of Ukrainian state energy giant Naftogaz has accused Russia’s Gazprom of using natural gas as a geopolitical weapon. They have called on the America and Germany to take action against Moscow while it awaits regulatory approval for a controversial pipeline project. Ukraine's people will go very hungry and some will die.
Watchy watchy....when Boris tells people 'don't panic' ...we panicked. I do not think I have to explain that here, turn on your news channels this morning.
What a fool Boris looked using Kermit the frog to get his message across on green policies. Kwasi Kwarteng was a worrying watch too giving evidence to the business, energy and industrial strategy committee in the Commons last Wednesday.
My thought really is, will our country be bought to it's knees further with a refusal of a significant gas find by a group of amateur councillors against planners recommendation .
And remember that the LPA Officers report states that even though ERYC have declared a climate emergency the application needs to be assessed against current policy. The climate change emergency will be addressed by 'future' planning policy.
AKA at this point in time means nothing.
