Mine's only 18 months old.
If they pay me, I'll change it.
Oh the crooks !
Wake up to this climate change fraud people.
It’s NOTHING but a huge scheme to get the modest amounts of money out of your pockets and into the already bulging gold bags of politicians and billionaires.
DONT TAKE IT ANYMORE
How, exactly?Quote:

Can’t see the entire country switching to electricity by then
I’m the same as Bobh
Got a new gas boiler plus I’ve got a log burner 🔥
Eight years will be here in no time 🤨
They have to make electricity far moe affordable before they can even begin to think about this. And that won't be easy!
The Llandeilo by pass is going ahead thank goodness. We're in safe hands.Quote:

Much as I’d like to go through it if it helped just one person, I just can’t start explaining the history politics and very basic TRUE science to one person , who’s vey likely to reject it out of hand anyway.
All I can do is implore you to look at the whole thing carefully yourself. I have no agenda other than to dissuade you and so many others not to take the sweets from the “nice man” in the van , or go for a ride with him.
Are you asking about generation or transmission and distribution?Quote:

Electric cars, electric heating...the whole country is going electric.

We're going to need at least a dozen new power stations, running on.... Er, what, exactly?
Nevermind that, we all need to get out in our gardens and dig, dig trenches 3 metres deep and as long as possible to put pipes in to source the heat we all need. So forget the bar you built, the new patio or decking, up it comes, get digging. You just need a small room then to house the components needed to sort that heat to run your your house….and about 10/20 grand. It’s no problem Shirley?
Come on, get digging we’ve got 8 yrs….to save mankind

Had a company come out and explain the heat bore source system, it was crazy and not too much different to your post, the guy said it was the future and we will all need it in the next 20 years, I laughed at him, he might have been right, just have to hope BoJo doesn't buy into this climate change stuff
When your as hot as me lads, you'll just constantly warm the house up mun
An arbitrary date with no appreciation of the complexities of the changes, time to reskill etc
Definitely can see 2030 new homes being fitted with no gas boilers but retrospective changes are pie in the sky
Never realised the Welsh Government has appointed one of these!!Quote:

I'm looking forward to selling my valleys house and advertising it as having "sea views".Quote:

Do they take into account the environmental impact of producing, delivering and installing all these new boilers when existing ones are still working OK?
Don’t worry about it, we have the same genius like strategists working on it who are in charge of traffic mgt schemes in cardiff, like the closure and then re opening of castle street…..Quote:
