Heathrow getting a third runway = Odds of kingsnorth powerplant being built: why?

Sorry for the rather protracted absence. I`m back now with a few updates on the mad world of climate policy and protest from around the world.

My favourite story of recent times is from the Guardian. Apparently the odds of Heathrows' third runway being built and the odds of a new coal power plant being built in Kent are 5:1. Why do you think that these are the same? Take a guess.

Thats right, those are the odds of New Labour getting re-elected! You get that, the Tories are our best bet to avoid these two disastrous climate changing policies. Have a chew on that!
