It seems the UK has a gas supply problem and we could run out of gas today!
What bloomin' useless Governments we have, they are supposed to ensure we have a solid infrastructure and gas is not the hardest of things to manage.
The irony is that many Wirral gasometers have been demolished recently because they store in the pipes now, another half-baked plan that has gone to pot.
Of course, having our energy suppliers owned by foreign countries doesn't help, their priority is the extraction of money not the supply of gas.
Its not like we have had a bad winter, what would have happened if we had another 1985 winter. I guess this has partly been brought on by the number of gas powered electricity generators we now use, electricity is something else we are going to be short of in the next few years (or today if the gas runs out!).
All we need now is for Russia to pull the plug on their gas supplies and we are done for, recreating the cold war has done nothing for our stability.

And why not blame the government for the cold weather whilst you're at it ? The country's infrastructure is one of the Government's prime functions, they should set the reserves of gas to be held. Relying on pipelines that go through multiple other countries that are also short of gas can hardly be a substitute for reserves. If the Government could and were allowed to control the weather then that would also be under their jurisdiction to get right. The Government are our servants to administrate national things.
