Wee Pat's Pump Plans Pumped (2)
No one seriously believes that tenements will have heat pumps by 2030. Or that petrol and diesel will be banned. These are now Potemkin policies to appease the unco guid Greens. Now alienating the very people Net Zero depends on: voters. https://t.co/VZiqBFRl3W

Iain Macwhirter weighs in to the great heat pump debate with an article which argues that the SNP's coalition partner (the sanctimonious Greens) is alienating Scottish voters.
"Britain is one of the leaders in the global race to net zero, largely because we closed down the coal mines and are developing vast reserves of wind energy. But an arbitrary ban on using fossil fuels is not rational. Even if it were achievable it would make very little difference to global emissions."
Fair comment.
