Politics of Wind Farming

With the William Franklin weblog postings can happen as and when. The first posting went up a week ago. To make my first weblog interesting I wrapped the message in a little personal piece of theatre about my father: the original William Franklin. Shortly after the first posting I added two more in support my reckless claim: a 5-year record of the Swedish Krona against the Pound Sterling and a 5-year history of the ABB share price. That was Sweden sorted. Today it was Germany’s turn. Posting four was prompted by a piece in the financial press about the sharks circling Scotland & Southern Energy.

William Franklin Posting Five was a remix of an article in the Christmas issue of Rye’s Own. The title of the article was The Politics of Wind Farming. The blog came with a few lines to establish my expert credentials and a piece on Romney Marsh. Energy politics, wind farming and The Little Cheyne Court Wind Farm then made cameo appearances before making way for The Beast of Essen, a giant power and utilities conglomerate that goes by the innocuous-sounding name of RWE and trades under such brand names as Thames Water, Yorkshire Electricity and Npower. The bottom line was to get over to Germany on Thursday 13th April and do some civil disobedience at the Annual General Meeting if you are serious about outflanking the barbarians and stopping them putting up their monstrous towers...each twice as high as Nelson’s Column...on Romney Marsh.
