The kettle thing is simply lies, since you can't increase the

Nope. They are trying to reduce power surges when an important
sporting event finishes. Low power kettles means the total power
requirement is spread over a longer period. But we have Dinorwig and
one in Scotland to do that, so it is a pointless directive. They don't
drink tea in Europe so it is equally pointless to them. Only the
Germans have coffee makers on the go all the time, but they have 8 new
brown-coal fired power stations to power those.


I'd like to know whether it was administrators or just who came up
with the idea to reduce kettle ratings.


The anti-EU meja, etc. Same that came up with bent bananas and all the
other folklore. Take 1% truth and add 99% speculation.

The EU is not an answer.


That is just what you're being manipulated to think. By actually believing
those sorts of lies.
