Enforcement Needed – Not Fines

Fining the energy companies for not meeting SmartMeter targets, but it doesn’t go far enough.

These companies are making huge profits so a fine isn’t going to make a huge dent.

Let’s try making the execs responsible accountable. Personal fines might incentivise them to kick their firms into action. How about some jail time or community service ?

This article makes me so angry, mainly because I already have a SmartMeter installed by Scottish Power.

IT HASN’T WORKED FOR TWO YEARS

Despite having been in contact with them, they have taken no action.

Yet they still push the advocacy of SmartMeter usage. I have become so frustrated with them I tried to request a smart meter installation.

Their system informed me that there were currently no installations happening in my area !!!

The UK energy industry has the worst customer service record. Because they don’t care because they know there is no alternative for consumers. They know know that there are no real consequences for them.

Scottish Power, and your peers, it’s time to get your act together.

Idiocy – Party Goers Waving Two Fingers At Authorities


More than £11,000 in fines issued for baby’s birthday party in Nottingham

A one year old baby doesn’t understand or care about parties. This gathering was all about the adults. Adults that decided to gather, regardless of the rules or the law.

Basically they have all waved two fingers at the government, shown total disrespect to our emergency services and the NHS.

There is no excuse. These people deserve everything they get.

More Selfish Idiots


Unbelievable !!!

Despite the pandemic dominating the television news programs, throughout the four countries that make up the United Kingdom.

Despite every newspaper carrying the painful story of the deaths, caused by the pandemic, on their front pages.

Despite pleas from Boris Johnson and his team of ministers, medical and scientific experts.

These absolute morons and many others like them around the UK, continue to defy the rules and regulations put in place to try and control the pandemic.

Plainly, the threat of fines doesn’t deter them from putting their pleasure ahead of the nations health.

Boris gets a lot of flak regarding the governments actions over the last, nearly, 12 months. Charges of acting too slowly, too late, not enforcing the tiers or lockdown strictly enough.

But it doesn’t matter what the government does while these fucktards are out there.

Here’s a thought. Perhaps the police should have put padlocks on the outside of the rave site. The organisers had already padlocked the doors from the inside. This was an opportunity to quarantine all the attendees. They could have been locked inside for 14 days. Making this a combined quarantine and jail sentence. Then they could be let out, one at a time, each being given a temperature test before being allowed to go home.
