It's an old picture the strand street one. You northerners should have voted for the beardy guy a few elections ago. He'd have been fun.

He stinks, I've just been looking through the last election to remind me of his name but with no success, maybe it was the election before?

This whole climate change committee thing is making Daphne look very silly indeed. She’s there to pursue a (flawed) fixed view of her and others not to listen to anybody. The whole economic reality of the situation is entirely lost on her. Not unsurprising for someone who thinks they’re changing the world by driving an electric car that they charge from a power point hooked up to a gas fired power station. 

And the car gets charged up behind government buildings in Douglas !  its   there all day !

This seems to be repeated frequently in this thread and others, but electric cars being charged from fossil fuels are still more efficient than ICE cars burning petrol/diesel.

they voted to review/update the 2014 strategy on offshore energy generation, with Comin to report to Tynwald by June2022.

I think...

However, Crogga only have a 4 month extension to their existing license, and a decision will have to be made to extend this further before June2022.

Tynwald shysters are giving themselves a handy excuse to kick the can down the road for the gas field development.

£8 BILLION solves a whole lot of fucking issues, transition to renewables/low carbon within the self imposed timeframe to 2050 being the biggest, and it would be absolute total fucking lunacy if they don't at least give Crogga the additional 18 months security they need to do the seismic surveying to assess likely recoverable reserves (find out how much is there!)
