Reading comments by Michael Glackin in the ST who says the Russian invasion of Ukraine has changed UK energy security. The answer, he says, is to drill for more oil and gas, frack and build nuclear power plants??? IMO what Scotland needs is to restore its independence so it can forge its own energy strategy and provide its citizens with security, safety, affordability, jobs and a more sustainable and hopeful future. It seems that many reputable people/politicians (some not so reputable btw!) at COP26 professed so much positive assurances re the way forward to tackle climate change effectively - HAVE BECOME FICKLE AND NOW CLINGING TO PROCRASTINATION RATHER THAN STILL DRIVING FORWARD WITH THE POLICIES THEY WERE PREACHING ABOUT ALTHOUGH WEE GRETA UNIMPRESSED WITH THE BLAH, BLAH, BLAH AND SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT TO BE SCEPTICAL.
