And everyone undercutting each other to get contracts is ridiculous. Been doing a bit of work on local one most the staff are Bulgarian and can only talk to them through google translate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 If it’s in the discussion stage ,all searches will have been done lads .They will know what’s there and come up with excuses as to how a field full of mirrors will benefit everything .Ihave one on a patch of ground I considered my best medal class roe buck stalking .The deer moved away for ages but are back now around the outside along with lots of bop and game birds on the inside .Badger runs were maintained through it now used by muntjac .I have shot a sneaky muntie on the inside and I was able to drag under the fence .

Qbgrey 4,138 Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Go on the local newspaper comments page about articles on the solar farm and keep saying the councils taking brown envelopes on this. You will get banned but get others on it. Rattle the shit out of them 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry Wyluke, I've no idea how to halt planning, being a pain in the ass for them will probably lengthen the time period and cost them a few quid, but the money in sustainable energy is immense and as we all know money talks!! I like how they quote the carbon neutral time and time again. All the minerals needed for the equipment are mined by industry damaging land... then the parts made in china which have halted any sustainable energy and are now the biggest coal users. And then there is the transportation and building costs. They use the word offsetting at every opportunity which means naff all. The land proposed sites are arable and up and till last summer were all grain. In a time when we are told of "food shortages" looks like its profit over people once again. Most will snub it as it doesn't effect them. Time to see if the community spirit is still there. Edited November 4, 2022 by wyluke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
