"The Tory manifesto pledge
on energy is a recipe for higher consumer bills. Onshore wind is the cheapest
form of low-carbon power. Stopping it whilst also committing to cutting
carbon emissions only means we'll have to invest in more expensive sources of
clean energy, driving up bills. The Tories' double standards and ideological
bias are embarrassingly obvious. They'll champion localism when it comes to
wind farms, but they'll run roughshod over local people's concerns when
it's about fracking."
