I agree with Saintsman - politicians are playing with fire. There is a rapidly growing sense of opinion that the whole "Green" issue is simply a ploy by Governments around the world to get more money from us. And why target an industry that produces a minimul CO2 output? They should be taxing all products made of wood from the rain forests. Deforestation is the single biggest cause of increasing CO2.
David Cameron is a dead duck. His performance since becoming leader has been pathetic - totally losing the plot.
I have been a lifelong Tory voter - but I will not vote Tory if these proposals are part of their manifesto.
