				Re: Energy companies collapse
			 
 
			
			Letting themselves get boxed in on this was a schoolboy error.  Nobody - including the bosses of the major oil producers we’re lucky to have within reach of the Treasury - would ever have seriously questioned the wisdom of a windfall tax.  I suspect they will present the development of their broader plan, bringing in the wind farms etc, as the reason for not acting sooner.
