Tangentially related ....
Why aren't housing estate developers not required - where feasible - to put solar panels on the roofs of the dweilings they are building?
Because the Tory government is beholden to the major building companies for significant amounts of funding. Why future proof buildings when you can put up substandard stuff and still charge top whack for it.
How much longer do we have to put up with this nonsense. RAAC. Grenfell. Shit housing stock. Lack of affordable rental properties. Inflated house prices. It is all of a piece. It beggars belief that we cannot work out a way to give our citizens decent housing.
Sorry derail.
On topic it still is all of a piece. That they messed the bidding process up should surely come as no surprise to anyone living on these blighted islands. Ukraine with it's ongoing war has managed to install more onshore (I know not off shore, but still) wind farms than we have. The government as it stands really could not organise the proverbial piss up in a brewery.
