And all because Howard Quayle tried to buy off a couple of school kid protesters. Millions and millions wasted on absolutely nothing or any value. It’s a civil servants wet dream of very, very expensive fresh air. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it will qualify those attendees a certificate to lecture islanders, and jump on board the ever burgeoning IOMG gravy train. I am all for skill workers but it’s should be for people who need to skills to enter the work place, or upgrade their skills. It's a City and Guilds course. https://www.ucm.ac.im/about/news/2023/apr/new-sustainability-course-launches/ https://prospect.ucm.ac.im/Page/Prospectus_CourseOverview?uio_id=10390 Edited May 2, 2023 by Moghrey Mie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banker Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Something simple like Uk grant system for heat/air source pumps is needed apparently with Grants you can now get them installed for similar to fossil fuel boilers https://www.gov.uk/apply-boiler-upgrade-scheme/what-you-can-get#:~:text=You can get one grant,those on shared ground loops) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moghrey Mie Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 Start at Bride and offer people FREE loft installation? It would probably be cheaper than all these grant schemes which nobody knows about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hissingsid Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 People in the UK are disenchanted with these heat pumps they are not warming their homes to a desirable temperature and they are only suitable for newish builds.
