Referendum needed
Apart from the fact that wind farms are a vastly expensive, only supply electricity when the wind is blowing and need huge subsidies to cover their costs (paid for by us, the ordinary electricity users), no-one has mentioned the decommissioning costs.
Eventually, these huge windmills will need to be removed or replaced and who will be responsible for the costs? They could well become a hazard to shipping unless they are completely cleared. Also the costs of connecting the 194 windmills, 13km off the coast to the National Grid electricity sub-staion at Bolney and the disruption involved, have not been spelled out.
As Marta Andreasen says, we do need a referendum so the views of the people from Newhaven to Littlehampton can be considered.
