Nothing to do with me. You. You are on here constantly ripping into 'Net Zero', Windfarms, solar farms, electric vehicles et al and in the next breath are out there taking that bucket of shiny windfarm shillings straight into your bank acount. Pure hypocrisy. "Bad things but I'll take the cash anyway"

I’ve been doing this before net zero was even thought of, Net Zero is utter insanity, wind farms are only any good as part of a balanced set up, currently they  make huge profits for predominantly foreign companies. Solar farms I’ve no experience in and don’t think I’ve had much opinion on them. Electric cars are currently too expensive, low range poor towing capacity etc etc ie a long long way off from replacing what we currently use especially within certain sectors.

How can myself doing a job for years that now has some ludicrous “ net zero “ tag somehow attached to it to soothe the gullible be classed as me being a hypocrite 🤷‍♂️your reasoning is just pure and utter stupidity.

If that’s the case then it is a genius move by @Johnsond - I’d happily take as much money as possible from any bullshido net-zero funded nonsense.

Bridget Phillipson's article in the Telegraph just shows how far the Labour Party are removed from real life and how they can only blame the previous government rather than accept that no one can get people trained or in to work if they don't want it! Kin muppets....

Net Zero is only a rebrand of being green  - or did you miss that bit? The  conversion from an oil based electricity system to green energy, net zero energy has accelerated with technology advances, but has always been a goal - pretty much since north sea oil took off and they realised that there was only limited supplies, certainly all my working life.

 

So then got to ask is it the branding you oppose then if the end result is the same?

 

Still happy to be taking that shiny shilling whatever they call it, it is the same thing. Still the same hypocrisy to apparently get angry about it and accept it as a wage earner

Whet a load of waffle and pure nonsense SP you should be embarrassed. 

So you have moved the goal posts from net zero to green 😂😂 

Rebranding you call it now 😂😂

I presume judging by this latest line of reasoning you must think Ed Milliband is doing an outstanding job then, that the headlong destructive Net Zero nonsense the UK is adopting is the right path. 

There’s only one person making a noise about what he thinks I’m earning on here and desperately trying to make something out of nothing and that’s as usual yourself SP. Me and my earnings seem to be of great interest to you, at least I’m honest about what I do for a living SP. 
Take a look at the attached pic SP that was the first offshore wind project I ever worked on, the shite you are spouting is just that, I base my posts on fact or often as not experiences or work history. I’ve got news for you there’s not any lads out here of any nationality at all who think that net zero is anything but madness, I guess that makes us all hypocrites in your eyes, whilst you sit smugly on  your daily commute what do you think your train is made of or runs on ??? Fairy dust and dried unicorn shite

Lies SP for the umpteenth time. 

The earnings obsession is yours alone and explain how do you go about “bragging of your hypocrisy” ?? 
Net zero and Renewables are two very different things 

The salesmen have managed to link the two for huge financial gain and the gullible such as  yourself have swallowed it big time.

Just had an end of shift meeting there, Brits, Dutch, Polish, Spanish,  Italian and probs a couple more nationalities , you will be pleased to know your labelling of those who work in the subsea industry who are involved in that aspect of the renewables game and have doubts about the validity of the net zero cause we’re quite amused at accusations of hypocrisy thrown around by yourself. Ok admittedly I may have portrayed you in a rather poor light when reading your post out  but unfortunately it was hard not to do otherwise. 
Anyway enjoy your commute to the office today 👍and stop obsessing over what other people earn eh, that’s not a good way to live.

UK sitting on £150bn of oil & gas that could power country for next 25 years

Around 40 per cent of the UK’s energy is imported BRITAIN is sitting on a glut of oil and gas that...

You’d have to be a special kind of retard to shut down our own fields and still import what we will need for decades to come. That level of stupid is very hard to justify. 

[Steven P]

Woohoo!!! 25 years!! and then what?

 

We'll be dead, won't care, and in my dying breath I'll whisper to The Boys "Your fecked"
