Job losses not ruled out by turbine company

Vic, of course they will. Wire netting will be put at all the windows and 'Flying Pigs' will be bred and reared for the speciality of the 'Pig's Wings Butty' to be produced as a wholesale item for markets worldwide.

When they go,will they pay us back for the nice new factory we bought them?

Slam in an asdas when it shuts down

So you would base an economy on companies which only exist courtesy of the taxpayer who funds their unproductive activities would you Mark?
Has it ever occurred to you just how much money has already been wasted on this company?
Is your memory conveniently short enough to forget that a few years back, when they could not blackmail the government into "donating" another £10 million of tax payers cash to keep these jobs built on sand, Vestas threw their toys out of the pram and sacked 600 people?
On the other hand, I have an enormous amount of sympathy for those made redundant at Gurnard Pines, but of course the management there (such as it is) did NOT have access to government "grants".

Your combined lack of compassion for people that may be redundant is astounding!

Just for a change with regard to wind turbines, lets look at the facts.
Vestas are virtually bankrupt.
They have been touting themselves around the world as a 'potential" takeover target, latterly with another ailing company, Mitsubishi.
Their share prices are in the basement having lost 85% of their value.
They have just sacked another 800 workers in the USA.
And finally, according to Pueblo Chieftain : "The Danish government won’t provide direct support to Vestas should the world’s biggest maker of wind turbines need a bailout to stay afloat, the Bloomberg news agency reports.
“We cannot and will not support a single company. It is against the government’s general state aid policy,” Martin Lidegaard, Denmark’s Energy Minister, said in an e-mailed reply to questions from the news agency.
So Rob Sauven can be as misleading as he likes, but he can't escape reality, which in the end will finish off all these wind carpetbaggers.
Vestas will be gone within a year.

Lets hope it has burst mike ,i see Japan is to build 6 new nuclear power stations here what a pity this goverment is not doing it , still paying for mp,s junkets abroad, pay rent rent on empty buildings, send child benifif money abroad, paying for turbines that are not running, etc etc etc, say,s reams about this goverment.
