I've no problem with the suggestion he's making, just that he's the one making it :lol:


I don't have a problem with how he said it, IIRC Northumberland and Cumbria are the least densly populated counties and there are bits where there is a huge amount of poorly utilised land.

I do have a problem with how it was said.


Oh, yeah, it didn't come across well. What I meant though was he's Boy George's father-in-law and 'Chairman of the British Institute of Energy Economics, which counts Shell and BP among its members.' But it's OK
