[Politics] Tory party achievements 2010 - 2024

[Greg Bobkin]

The caring left, same ones who love to sing songs about Maggie dying etc.

Because those on the 'right' are such empathy- filled, love-speading tolerant and accepting souls?

I wonder what motivated Cameron to be so enthusiastic about wind farms?

David Cameron's father-in-law will earn £250,000 a year with a subsidised wind farm | UK | News | Express.co.uk

DAVID Cameron’s father-in-law is expected to rake in an extra £250,000 a year when a second subsidised wind farm on his country estate is completed next year – despite a Government crack down on new on-shore wind turbines.

And besides that, wind farms generate very little energy.

Up to 17% of UK electricity generation in 2023. Given this is 'very little', be good if you can let us know which other sources produce more than this 'very little' amount and, given the upward trajectory of offshore wind, let us know at what point it moves into generating sufficient to move into a higher category.

I think from a quick skim, that that article and the 17% refers to offshore wind alone, which presumably explains why it's a lower number than I quoted above for wind in total.
