Well, they invaded Iraq so that they could ensure a stable supply of the black stuff and yet the price is now at a record high.

That worked well then didn't it.

Even Powergen and the likes are saying that gas prices are set to rise dramatically. This I don't really understand. They already have the equipment in place, the infrastructure to get it to your cooker must have been paid for many times over, they get it for free so why should the price change? They control how much comes out so when demand increases why not just open the tapa bit more?

It also begs the question that much that we do in terms of energy conservation is and soon will be wiped out because of teh rise in demand from developing countries like China.

Thoughts, comments anyone?
