Ok , so watching the budget it seemed a great announcement. Let’s get investment going , let’s get projects on the move , let’s compensate for Covid , let’s compensate for Brexit. Could be good for ITM’s customers , could be good for ITM.
However , the more I think about it the more I wonder if this is a last minute “sounds good let’s do it” boardroom type discussion which hasn’t involved a lot of brainwork. I don’t recall any limitations to this , such as green projects only and certainly no caps. So my initial question would be , what’s to stop BP ordering £50B of new oil rigs and tankers , the government paying for the lot and then handing over another £15B on top? What have I missed?
