DO YOU WANT THE TRUTH (OR SOMETHING BANAL)?

One of our jolly researchers has sent us this:

"We live very close to Westmill Windfarm.
The noise we hear (loudest first) is:
1. The A420 - noisy main road Oxford to Swindon, almost never quiet
2. Minor road
3. Aircraft, including helicopters
4. Noise from the military college
5. Wind in the trees
6. Birds singing
7. The wind turbines.
Puts it in perspective doesn't it!!!!!!!!"

This corresponds with the testimony of a woman who lived very close to turbines in Denmark for several years and who told the Evesham Journal only recently that she hardly ever even heard the turbines, even when walking past them.

So, two testimonies from two women who live, or have lived, close to windfarms. And, okay, so the Lenches don't have a major road or military college nearby - but they do have those noisy old birds, and as for the wind in the trees, well doesn't that keep everyone awake at nights?

Nothing to worry about on the noise front, then.

Which might be why the barefaced liars of VVASP (Vale Villagers Against Scottish Power) are taking a new tack. Actually, they're not. They're following their usual brainless course of hearing only what they want to hear and telling everybody what they want them to believe.

They even seem to imagine that Gordon Brown, in a recent prime ministerial debate, admitted that wind power doesn't even work in Scotland!

Now, you'd have to be a complete moron to believe that Gordon Brown said that. Because of course Mr Brown said nothing of the sort. He said nothing remotely like it. Even the spin merchants of Conservative Central Office surely wouldn't have made such a stupid claim about Gordon's remarks as VVASP have done.

But, yet again, what we find with Vale Villagers Are Specious Phibbers is that their entire campaign, grossly irresponsible as it is, is built entirely on lies.

Yes, let's say it loud and clear: VVASP ARE LIARS. THEY TELL LIES. THEIR ANTI-WINDFARM CAMPAIGN IS NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF LIES. THEIR WEBSITE IS FULL OF LIES. THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF TELLING THE TRUTH. THEY LIE, OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THEY ARE A DESPICABLE CROWD OF UNASHAMED LYING LIARS.

And that, dear friends, is the truth.
