You get one chance to put a cross on a ballot paper every five years, plus locals and Europeans, and you will be going with the majority. The winning party or parties will have to present a sensible, well-thought out case to get people to vote for them. Are the voters all sheep? I suspect if you had any viable alternative proposals you would be involved in that in some way, rossy, not stirring forum-users up about it.

I don't want to see bird corpses littering the landscape, I think all options should be looked at. I think wind power is sensible because it encourages technology which I hope can make it possible for many more individuals to have their own source of power. I don't see the government or indeed the country encouraging private use of nuclear reactors. Nuclear power may be cheaper and initially more environmentally friendly, but it too runs out and perhaps the nettle has to be grasped before new power stations can be built. Gone are the days when non-sheep like you and your mates have the final say. Thankfully.
