MP's Approve Fracking Under National Parks

[Taiga261]

Fracking under national parks backed by MPs - BBC News

 

I don't think this is a good idea. Discuss.

We are in Pembrokeshire National Park and our farm sits on shale.

 

I wrote to our Tory MP about Fracking before the general election.... he is of the opinion that fracking is okay, he's also done nothing to stop our hospital services being taken away.

 

The way it's going I foresee alot of the general public receiving criminal convictions for criminal damage to oil drilling equipment.

 

They ain't listening mate.

cheers, steve

I think fracking may just be the next poll tax riot.

 

Of course they'll be the career protesters, the anarchists, the dossers, the druggies, the hippies, the posh socialists (or should that be socialites?), but I think there may well be a fair chunk of general public too - even staunch Tories - since there's no inducement or back hander for them to be bought off with.

 

Even if I did support fracking I just can't reconcile Paris and fracking?

 

For the time being, we have neither badger cull nor fracking in Kernow, if we did, I'd be on the front line of the protest for either.

I think you're right there.

Maybe that's what our elite government wants?.... and that reminds me of that Young Ones University Challenge sketch....

"Rah, rah, rah, we're going to smash the oinks!...."

Before one gets carried away with media bullsh*t.

 

If 'fracking' were just injecting high pressure 'clean' water would it be an issue?

 

However, most (likely to be all) oil/gas production (fracking or no fracking) involves injecting chemicals down the well to 'improve' production. It is this that maybe one should be concerned with.

 

And note that there are already onshore oil production plants in sensitive areas - Wytch Farm in Dorset. And some of those offshore fields are not that far from land, especially when it comes to the 'leaching' of injected chemicals into the various strata. And fracking is not uncommon in the UK offshore industry.

 

Anyway, what do I know, I am not a rock doctor, and less competent in the matter compared to the media.................

Fracking under national parks !

Utter madness!!!!

I wonder how many politicians ( both right and left wing) have got links to these 'fracking' firms?

Or is that just me getting old and cynical 😀😀😀😀😀
