Now can we nationlizse the energy industry?

Re: Fuel poverty to rise to 8.5m, report warns
 

How would that solve the costs of the energy(eg gas) and the green taxes?

Let me put it this way, they would not be wasting money on Profits and Dividends for example

Re: Fuel poverty to rise to 8.5m, report warns
 

So please give us a detailed plan of what you would do.

Re: Fuel poverty to rise to 8.5m, report warns
 

1: My plan would involve nationlizing all the utillite companies

2: They will be merged to together to form "British Utillites"

3: They will not issue out divideds

4: we will scrap the building of new nuclear powe stations

5: we will invest in renewable energy and biomass

6: We will launch clean coal and carbon capture scemes

and thats just the start

No easy fix but we do need to get off reliance to other nations for our energy.

Would actually try do what scandinavians done waste heat pumped into towns homes to give free heat.

That would reduce our carbon footprint damn sight better than the usual tax the the backside waste of humans out of us.

The tax for green was the most ill conceived piece rubbsih ever to hit the country. There lack of thought to tackling our energy needs our carbon footprint was antiquated.

We need modern thinking to our problem we need to upgrade many homes to 21st century energy needs which reduce our carbon footprint.

Now nothing wrong with the tax if that tax is being used to reduce homes energy waste.

New homes should be built with better modern thinking to its carbon footprint too.

We so backwards to the issue all we doing is nothing which really make difference to how homes heated get homes more self reliant.

It can be done but dont think we got politians who got the brains or desire.

They used the tax as way to raise revenue to ofset other losses. However they slammed people into poverty more will get into it as energy costs will soar.

The problem then they will have to negate the tax which now they waisted could made big inroads to the problem.

Its all alright saying switch off or use laundry during the night etc but what about really making difference as the world ever more reliant to new gadgets we will see it get worse.

Sort the homes out first. That channel 4 programmes was quite eye opener to what is to come. We need to gear the country for that technological revolution.
