Another day, another broken promise from this hapless Government.
Well, not quite yet perhaps, but Ed Miliband’s pledge to [bring down household energy bills is as good as dead after it was rubbished by some of the industry’s most influential figures in devastating fashion.
Much to his embarrassment, Miliband’s pledge was given a thorough roasting in Parliament on Wednesday at the hands of folk who understand how the energy market works better than anyone.
As a slew of energy bosses queued to warn of higher bills, the hearing highlighted the absurdity of Labour’s vow to magically make bills more affordable by building yet more wind turbines.
But Miliband won’t be deterred. At a time when concerns about Beijing’s threat to national security have never been greater, ministers, it seems, are okay with the Chinese building an armada of floating wind turbines off the Scottish coast.
Is nothing off limits in the pursuit of this green nirvana? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/10/17/milibands-cheap-energy-bills-pledge-is-officially-in-tatter/?fbclid=IwY2xjawNe1A9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHvnUxo6bJ6S5_VZRtIiBafDfxLcgEbmL4b55kOHwpFN9hYpghtQzp3PdA0iz_aem_JCXvTxyEWt6YyEf9IGfQNw
