Announcing the governments 'plans' to become EU compliant by attempting to provide 15% of our energy from renewable sources. No mention whatsoever of the previously announced eco-towns, however. This, in addition to the announcement that Gordon Brown wants to reduce our fossil-fuel dependance - whilst also ensuring that we develop modern methods for coal-mining and drilling for oil and gas, just makes a mockery of the whole 'green' persona which they are attempting to sell to us.
