Britain 'facing energy shortfall' Sounds like the real reason they want us all to use electric candles in place of proper lamps and all this other green nonsense. Should have built those nuclear stations a long time ago like France. Love the pictures too - scary b/w picture of a nuclear control room and bright colourful picture of windmills and happy children. Never mind the facts, let's have a beauty contest. -- Bye bye |
