I seen the miners strike and the total closure of deep mining in Scotland thatcher fucked this industry over , there are billions of tons of high quality coal left to claim in fife and we still import ???????????
Yeah...if i get 1.3 BILLION dollars from the government each year (1982) i could also have a high productivity rate and make a healthy profit! =P LOL!!!
Why not buy energy from where Britain can get it cheapest and save 1,3 bllion each year? That is by far the best solution and i am glad Thatcher did just that =)
@Salladsdressing The cheapest energy is that which is self produced. It costs the country nothing to produce its own, it only costs when you import. Importing shifts jobs and money abroad and creates unemployment and social crisis amongst your own people; well done Thatcher!
@salladsdressing, So here we are in 2011 and all uk electricity consumers are moaning about energy prices, Its a direct result of thatcherism. We now have Finland making wind turbines and installing them in the UK and charging the uk consumer for what they produce and don't produce.Well done thatcher again! You need to look beyond the MONEY it blinds you, governments are elected to serve their people ,Social responsibility not personal gain and greed!
"it costs the country nothing to produce it's own"
You got to be kidding? =P
If you want to build a coal mine then you need to buy equipment, employ hundreds architects, geologists, miners and buy lots and lots of building material. This costs billions and billions of dollars! Then you have to sell the energy produced with a profit so that it pays for everything and for British coal, that price was way higher then energy from abroad.
