The SNP are constantly telling everyone in Scotland two things:
- The SNP can pay for Scottish separation from England by using all the money they will get from oil
- The SNP want an end to fossil fuels like oil.
Do you spot the problem?
Quite clearly, if the SNP end fossil fuels, then they won’t have the money to pay for all the public services in Scotland. Total madness! So, how do they get away with it?
There was a comment by Josh the other day: “Can you imagine how a chicken thinks”. And likewise, it is very hard to imagine how the totally gullible scientifically and engineering illiterate politicians and journalists think (if “think” is the right verb).
I can only imagine they “think” that because wind is “free” (the same as coal and oil is free – you just pay to extract it) … that because it is “free”, they can replace oil by wind. Of course, the actual economics is that wind costs money and that the only possible way to make money from wind is to sell it to some other gullible stupid pathetic government committed to an equally stupid “fossil fuel free” economy.
And so long as the rest of the UK was in the EU – where they were being forced by their insane energy policy to spend more and more of the economy buying expensive “wind” (and thereby closing down all energy intensive industries like steel which can no longer afford to operate in the EU) … so long as the UK was under the jack boot of Brussels, the SNP might have been able to fool the extremely gullible.
But not now … now the SNP have a certifiably insane policy: separation from the United Kingdom (there is no independence in the Euro Union … ) and no oil, no money from oil, bird-mincers destroying the wilderness that tourists visit, fishing given to the EU, and the rest of the UK free of the insane EU and not willing to give a penny for the crazy bird-mincer electricity.
Fracking
There is of course, one way out of the hole they dug themselves – and that is fracking. But having also dug a hole for themselves on fracking by saying they are against it … I’m not going to go out of my way to encourage our idiot politicians to change … when it will be easier to change our idiot politicians.
