Nice try to put words in my mouth.

And do love the way you talk about 'our' interests. When you actually mean your own. Which is rather typical of right wingers.

Very good. Where did you copy that from?

Of course the last 7 years or so have proved how well the Tories run our economy. If you live on a different planet.

That's not blackmail then, is it. Of course, you like to use the loaded word "blackmail" in the context of British negotiators sticking up for Britain in negotiations, so that you can claim that we are being unreasonable when that is not in fact the case.

It's no different from other lefty twerps (like Paul Mason) claiming that any criticism of the useless Dianne Abbott is based on racism rather than that she is, well, useless.

I see also that the Imperial College NHS Healthcare Trust is still waiting for a response from socialists running Hammersmith & Fulham Council to its letter to them of 27th Mar 2017 complaining about their lies in regard to Charing Cross Hospital - lies in which they claim that the Trust is planning to close the hospital when no such closure plans exist.

Think the bit you missed out is sticking up for what *you* want, not Britain.

Oh it can. Fortunately now we have a lot of CCGT, we used to rely on coal for load following. Still, there is the capital cost of the un-used plant to consider, and the largely imported gas. Unless we start fracking of course.

Would that capital cost of unused plant be related to the capital cost of non-productive intermittent renewables? I think we should be told.

As usual Our Dave completely misses the point.

The cost of a power stain is the same whether its run flat out, or one hour a day.

The only savings you make for one hour a day is a teeny bit of fuel, and you lose that in heating it all up again after its been shut down.

Which is why renewable energy produces no carbon savings whatsoever overall, and electricity is just getting more expensive.

But now Donald T has seen through it.
