Vestas Protest: The Report BBCR4

Thanks to VB reader Seb who pointed us in the direction of this programme that was broadcast on BBC Radio 4 last night.

In the programme, ‘Simon Cox investigates whether Britain will ever develop a viable wind energy industry and how our European neighbours are profiting fro our failures.’

The programme features ex-Vestas workers, Climate Change campaigners, Vestas management, Island MP Andrew Turner and John Gallimore from ThWart.

It’s an interesting programme and well worth checking out.

He finishes his report by stating that without a manufacturing base in the UK, it’s impossible to see where the ten of thousands of wind power jobs are going to come from.
