Shame about the whole thing, haven't they estimated a huge Shale gas deposit around the Blackpool area?

It could solve a huge energy issue if they were able to fully exploit the area, I mean even if Blackpool falls into the Irish Sea from the fracking it's not like it would be a great loss

This week they're protesting fracking. Next week they'll be protesting the high cost of fuel.

Not much use having gas to heat homes if the homes have fallen down due to Earthquakes from getting that gas

There is also a growing caucus of Tory MPs, including former ministers Lord Frost and Steve Baker, calling for the government to re-examine the controversial practice of fracking in the UK - drilling down into the earth to release shale gas.

I can't imagine anyone is surprised.
