How will it be enforced? You build a house and have a gas cooker
installed. You don't install a boiler. When the planners etc have all
****ed off you install a gas boiler.


Building control, Not planners.


What will the approved alternatives be? Surely not oil! Electric will
be far too expensive.

Basically the greenies are trying to take us back to the stone age.

Yes. The idea is 'renewable' electricity, heat pumps and batteries.



It's also only applicable to new builds, which in turn will be insulated
properly. District heating maybe, too.

And hopefully people will insulate themselves and heat their homes with
a little more thought.

Its totally insane


Well, it'll simply not happen unless the government supports it
financially.
