Idleweiss Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 It was actually a very worthwhile event tonight. Well run, respectful, and relatively well informed. It was sort of ruined though by Legislative Councils own version of ‘Statto’ constantly making pathetic nitpicking points about some of the science discussed. Now there is a man who does not want to listen to any alternative view and who is literally chomping at the bit to burn tens (if not hundreds) of millions of pounds of our money on the next failed IOM big infrastructure scheme. It’s a shame that nobody pointed out that this isn’t even about wind farms for most people - it’s about the fact that every capital project the IOM has delivered in the last 30 years has been an over budget badly researched crock of shit. And hardly anyone believes that this will be any different. The wind farm bit is generally incidental. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkydevil Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Anyone know who Julian is on MR mannin line? He doesn't know what 'Onomatopeia' means but he seems like a likeable chap, but has an immense amount of airtime. I'm just interested to know if he's a local fruitcake.

Notwithstanding, the video will no doubt be published soon I’m sure and people can make their own minds up as to whether they agree with that observation or not.

But @Cambon doesnt want wind ( well not in his backyard) and the power station makes electricity by......burning fossil fuels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Stranford loch has a restricted opening so it is suited to a tidal flow generation. Neither of the locations you quote do and are not suitable. Nowhere around the isle of man is suitable. It's not a viable option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's ex-CRHS Geography teacher Paul Craine. Wants to bankrupt the Island and ensure high energy costs for everyone in the future by pretending that the way in which energy is generated for 84,500 people will save the planet. Like our emissions have any discernable effect whatsoever on the climate. Edited June 21 by b4mbi 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
