The BBC were fast to keep hyping Miliband’s energy price freeze…..not so quick to report something that may well provoke a furious reaction from consumers…especially as the blame can be laid squarely at Miliband’s door….the man who impoverished us while subsidising his mates in the green industries.
The Telegraph reports this from ‘Which’:
Energy bills may rise by £600 a year
Cost of building power stations, replacing grids and erecting wind farms will add £640 a year to household bills, Which? consumer group warns Treasury
The group predicted that energy companies would need to spend £118 billion on new infrastructure between now and 2020.
This would include building power stations, replacing grids and erecting wind farms as part of a drive to sustain the power supply and cut down on carbon emissions.
Which? believes this cost will inevitably be passed on to consumers, adding the equivalent of £640 a year to household bills.
Meanwhile the BBC chooses to ignore that and report this from ‘Which’:
Energy bills ‘still confusing’, says Which?
The BBC once again laying into Big Business and hiding stuff that doesn’t play to the green agenda.
If you think the BBC and the Guardian are biased, don’t climb into bed with Which magazine, its where Guardian-reading BBC-worshiping people go to find out about ethically-sourced organic washing machines.
“…..ethically-sourced organic washing machines.”
Or Marta from Cracow as she’s otherwise known.
“Which? believes this cost will inevitably be passed on to consumers, adding the equivalent of £640 a year to household bills.”
Brilliant insight. I thought the cost might have been passed to the tooth fairy. There seems to be an unspoken thought there that it would be damned unfair to expect the consumer to pay for the costs of their energy infrastructure. I’m guessing the thought that windfarms may be useless infrastructure never crossed their minds.
Yet another country-crippling legacy of Labour’s 13 years in power: their failure to devise a strategy, any kind of strategy – in fact, there was a complete absence of a strategy other than crippling our means of production through ‘carbon reduction’ targets – for securing our energy supplies.
Not that you’d be aware of that if your only source of information is the BBC.
