Well it's the Eton-educated Mr Cameron who decided to put a wind
turbine on his Notting Hill house, and a Conservative MP has just
introduced a private members Bill to "enshrine in law the right of
councils to set policies which insist on a minimum level of power
for a development to be generated by on-site renewable energy."

.. although in many cases insisting on triple glazing would
probably achieve more environmental benefit at less cost.

Indeed. By I don't think Mr Camerons education goes as far as Si-ense.

He's a marketing man: To do anything, first you have to get elected. I
guess he feels he has to go along with greeny ******** to do that.

The real issue is that if he does get elected, will he make the
transition from marketing director to managing director.

And employ people who *can* do sums, and listen to them.
