Gas attracts global price rates and more capacity in the UK won't impact this. At the moment, the high price of gas is negatively impacting British industry, not renewables. We need to look at the facts, not what GB News's fossil fuel funders might prefer to tell us.

The global gas price argument always gets trotted out. But it’s the government that grants the licences and a decent negotiator can strike the right deal. Then we have sovereign control.

Withe the wind/solar, nothing is free. We don’t make the panels, we don’t make the wind turbines, we yse coomercial land at rip off rates; the units/farms have to be built. The gas infrastructure is already there

Please dont trot out this pie-in-the-wind cobblers. Sorry to put it that way.
