Severn barrage dropped

[SupremeSpod]

Not until I pry the last windmill out of the ground or sea from this eco-brainwashed, unthinking, basketcase country full of bovine inhabitants, with my cold, dead hands.

Righty-o Mr Lancaster!

I kind of like windmills, pretty. If there's no wind then someone can pedal... maybe a job for unemployed people.

I could have done with a £30bn project on my doorstep, the sea would have turned blue too.

They'd have had to have repainted Hinkley Point a different colour to so that it matched the sea!

You may laugh d000hg, but that is a far more sensible idea than windmills. Just think, when a million kettles are about to boil during the ad break in Corrie, vaste swathes of the unemployed could be whipped into pedalling for their lives on 5 million eco-bikes connected to the National Grid.

No uncertainty of the unpredictability of the wind, just a predictability of the fact that Chardonnay and her spawn of wasters won't get the 2 holidays to Spain this year if she doesn't get those KFC, genetically manipulated thunderthighs and muffin top working to generate that 1.6kW of power. And no need to provide them with the appropriate gear - they're all wearing tracksuits already.

I'd vote for that.

And the sweat released could be pooled into our reservoirs to help alleviate the leakage from our mains potable water system.
