Lack of energy

The National Grid has announced that we face the real possibility of electricity blackouts this winter due to a mismatch of supply and demand.

What, then, has been the point of spending billions of pounds constructing and subsidising wind turbines and industrialising vast swathes of our countryside if they are, essentially, useless in providing a reliable energy source?

One of the prime duties of government is to provide energy at all times, and news of possible power cuts shows that they have failed in this simple task.

So if government fails at that, what next? Well, they have made us defenceless by reducing our armed forces, and have also failed to feed us by allowing the EU to wreck our fishing and farming 
industries.

The Liberal left is destroying British society prior to rebuilding it in the post-democratic new world order, where Britain will simply no longer have a place.
