“The basic thing is that these shocking schemes are [proposed by] foreign investors looking to make a profit out of our ridiculous energy prices,” said Rowett. “It’s a huge profit margin for those who can get some renewable energy from our sunshine and take the profits offshore.” True and she’s right to say it. She said countryside solar schemes should be smaller and locally operated, and called for a stronger drive for solar panels to be installed on rooftops of public and private buildings instead. I doubt this would bring in close to what we’d need even if we do it on every building nationally. But heaven forbid we change the landscape to combat climate change. East Pye has faced strong opposition from politicians in the other main parties on the council including the Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats and Reform UK. All local parties are NIMBY or something.

Yeah, if they did more than just make “she’s a woman who likes man things” jokes it could have been great, it even ends by saying Douglas was in the wrong. It’s honestly not even that bad by 2000s sitcom standards, it came out 2 years before that Family Guy episode. Which makes Glinner destroying his entire life over it all the more morbidly fascinating.

It’s honestly funny that he’s destroyed his entire life over what was fairly mild criticism of an single IT Crowd episode. Well it would be, except the entire British media class and the bloody government comes out moaning about ‘freeze peach’ because he got talked to for incited violence against trans people.
