Oh, that 2014 fabricated scare-story's come out of hibernation, has it?

What a surprise.

Even the Telegraph backtracked on it a few months ago.

Well its not come out of hibernation yet - its been put on the "back

But after the referendum I will wager its "full steam ahead" (well
partial steam ahead anyway from our new low power kettles).
