IN this month of our energy apocalypse an assortment of right-wing voices are prescribing exotic means of avoiding death this winter without stiffing the energy companies.
My favourite of the year so far comes from the people behind the reactionary right-wing blogger, Effie Deans who makes Douglas Ross look sound like Arthur Scargill.
“If people in Scotland could live in crannogs and brochs without heating we can all live without central heating,” Deans recently declared. The new UK Chancellor Kami-Kwasi Kwarteng is now believed to be looking closely at this idea.
