Damped Down

Since Britain is merely a country made up of islands, the greenest government ever has decided that marine energy isn't really for us, thank you very much. Before last year's election, Daveybloke said that he would make marine energy research and development a priority, and Daveybloke has fulfilled that promise after his usual fashion: fifty million pounds which was originally set aside to help with commercial wave and tide exploitation has been cut to twenty million. As is clear from the Government's reaction to the Fukushima disaster, when the United Kingdom's business and energy ministries were placed at the disposal of the nuclear industry's public-relations branch, Daveybloke and his little orange chums have other priorities.
