Essay by Eric Worrall
h / t JoNova; Under the emergency energy allocation scheme, the UK government is considering introducing a winter call for ordinary people to sacrifice their personal comfort to prevent power outages.
Back to the dark ages? Millions of Britons could now be told to turn off their lights and turn off their thermostats to avoid power outages this winter under emergency plans
The government can come up with a plan if the energy crisis worsens in winter
The National Grid may also have to pay big energy users to cut back

Government measures to tackle the energy crisis this winter will include a call to the public to cut energy use in the event of a shortage of electricity or gas supplies.
A document on National Grid’s contingency plans viewed by walkie talkie suggests that ministers will use this option if the energy crisis worsens.
The news comes as EU countries have been told to cut usage by 15% from next month over fears they won’t be able to stockpile enough for the winter after Russia reduced gas supplies on the NordStream pipeline. .
…
Let’s not forget, the politicians who made this call were the same clowns earlier this year ordered to seal Britain’s only shale gas wells with concretefear that trying to secure an adequate domestic gas supply would weaken their net propulsion.
Last I heard The deadline for sealing gas wells has been postponed to 2023. But no businessman has to endure such contradictions and bullying. British businessman Francis Egan of Shale Gas (pictured at top) is a hero at the end of such political persecution, but keeps trying. But repeated threats of a permanent shutdown will not help Egan raise the capital to expand its business, to fill Britain’s energy shortfall with its product.
If British politicians start now, give Egan’s Cuadrilla the clear green light to drill more shale gas wells, and maybe some funding to help him buy equipment and rent out According to US experts, it is likely that the UK will have enough raw gas in production by January 2023 to alleviate Britain’s upcoming winter energy shortage.
Instead, the British government’s plan is to ask ordinary people to lower their temperatures and face difficulties.
I guarantee important people like politicians in Whitehall whoever made this mess won’t be cold or hungry this winter. I cannot say the same to other people in the UK.
