Wind Turbines Only Exist Because Of Heavy Subsidies Paid Via Our Electricity Bills.

From: John Hatt, Firbank, Sedbergh. Yorkshire Post.
MOST people know that wind farms would not exist without subsidies. And most people know that they are a threat to Yorkshire’s most beautiful countryside.
What most people don’t know is that these subsidies (which go mostly to foreign companies and rich landowners) aren’t paid by the Government, but instead are financed entirely from electricity bills. This covert tariff throttles economic growth, makes our exports less competitive and is horrendous for the seven million people in fuel poverty.
If you want this scam to end, please vote for a recent e-petition that asks for a reform of wind-farm subsidies that will reduce electricity bills.
When the petition has reached its target, it will be eligible for a five-hour debate in the House of Commons. Let’s hope this pressurises the Government into reducing our inflated electricity bills.
