1. You might be shocked to find that the fossil fuel industry receives even more subsidies from the tax payers. It is estimated that globally fossil fuel exploration and production is subsidized by around 775 000 000 000 usd.
2. How much will we end up paying for Nuclear powers dirty wee secrets. We have been conned and paid through the nose since the 50s. And it still goes on. Dounreay is a national scandal. See Bella Caledonias blog: From the Province of the Cat: Dounreay is a war crime
3. Nuclear power has been the biggest dirtiest con ever on mankind.
4. Propeller driven wind mills are not economically viable, that is why without subsidy the wind farms would not exist. Propeller wind farms serve the corporate interest, not the public interest. It is insane throwing one billion in subsidy on non-viable propeller windmills instead of spending 100 million on developing new viable wind energy technology that would serve the people’s interest. Wake up! It’s all a corporate scam to indebt you! 
5. Correction:- We pay 3 times the price for offshore electricity - not twice as stated.
