Ed Miliband can carp on all he likes about how his precious net-zero revolution is going to magically lead us down the merry path to cheaper energy bills, but he can’t change facts – and his green dreams continue to collide with reality in the most damning fashion. [emphasis, links added]
The latest blow to his clean energy fantasy comes once again in the form of wildly unaffordable offshore wind power after Miliband unveiled the prices the Government is willing to pay for yet more offshore wind farms to be built in UK waters.
When Claire Coutinho, the shadow energy secretary, describes them as “eye-watering”, she isn’t exaggerating.
