Re: Didcot Power Stations Finest Off For Scrap

Can't wait for the referendum in 2017 should be a blinder! How Brussels can dictate to us that we must close all our coal fired power stations, when Germany has one of the biggest coal mining operations, to supply their domestic electricity industry, anywhere in Europe, is beyond me.
