    My uncle was a geologist for the NCB, obviously lost his job ,
    I went down a mine once, sort of museum, not nice.

    There is an argument that burning coal is better than what we were doing before, burning wood.

    Yeah, dripping sambos, mate lovely
    Actually it wasn't very diverse down there, not one bame, lady, lesbians or one of the pronoun alphabet people, and you could pick your soap up from the floor in the communal showers without getting a sore arse for your trouble.

    A bit chilly tonight I got my wood burning fire on, a local guy brings it for me that's how he earns his living.
    Better than paying the leccy companies.

    apparently we had the cleanest burning coal in the world mate, don't know how true that is, and they reckon the coal we now have to import is crap

    Another thing I've just remembered. All the climate alarmists cite "pre-industrial levels"
    The world population didn't cross 1bn until 1800, even by 1900 it hadn't hit 2bn, now we're at over 7bn!
    That's going to impact the climate on it's own.

    Oh hang on. It's gone up by just over 1 degree since 1880.

    From my memory being a soft southern bastard, it seemed like it was her or the Unions.
    I do remember through the late seventies everyone seemed to be on strike regularly.
    I doubt I knew the truth
