Title: Looks like a done deal then
Post by: Snoopy on September 24, 2008, 05:11:31 PM
British Energy (1/3 owned by the British Government) have accepted an "improved" offer from EDF (85% owned by the French Government) which will leave EDF with the pick of the nuclear power stations and choice of sites for four new ones.

This is apparently a "good thing" according to Gordon Brown

Why do I have this feeling that we have just been shafted?

It is entirely obvious that we shall now be subsidising the keeping warm of French domiciles, so that they may continue to shag their sisters in comfort.
