   @ChrisMayLA6 ... And elsewhere in the north Atlantic, they push ahead with the extraction of fossil fuels.

   I'm furious!

     Meanwhile off the coast of #Scotland development has stopped on the fourth largest #offshore #windpower project in the UK.

     Rapid #inflation in costs & no Govt. response on the earlier agreed Green Tax levy on such developments (to recognise the impact of such increased costs) means that like #Vattenfall before it, Community Winpower had decided it cannot continue.

     Rather than focus on #IHT, this is the #economic & #tax issue #RishiSunak should have focussed on!

     #sustainableenergy is vital!
