Part of email I received from Northern Powergrid the other day
"Please read: Important advice about emergency power cuts
National Grid ESO has indicated that Emergency Power Cuts are unlikely to happen this winter, however, ongoing reports in the news have led to some customers contacting us as they are unsure or concerned what this might mean for them."
No email but a leaflet that was dropped through the letterbox last week.

The gist is a remote prospect of power cuts this winter. Sort of 'move along now and don't panic nothing really to see but we’re just trying to cover ourselves.' As my friend in the industry says, the Govt. doesn't want us to talk about the decade of mismanagement on their watch. In his opinion it's not a 'remote' likelihood of power cuts either but rather when.
Oh and from another thread Brian posted this little skit which we've all had to pay for. Looks cheap and tacky which is a blessing I suppose.
And that’s as far as it goes (for now) when it comes to this Govt. discussing the knife edge we’re on.
Bloody Elves it is then Mr Shapps who are the culprits for the current mess we're in..
Nothing to do with Ministers who should be proactive and forward thinking but now find themselves staring over the abyss of their own making.
