Also who will pay for my boiler to be replaced. If zero carbon by 2025 is a goal then gas boilers have to go and that will cost alot but also impossible to deliver as there are not enough trained fitters to all 23 million houses in the u.k over the next 6 years.
Also if all plumbers were fitting new boilers and you pipes start leaking good luck in finding a plumber. 6 year wait.
XR is quite guilty of having a ill thought through plans. That's why I don't like citizens assemblies. A gathering of the ill informed who then make ill informed choices because evidence gets ignored. That what politicans do and we are just like them. That's the sad truth.
I doubt a citizens assembly would come up with the right answer according to XR unless it is stuffed with the "right" kind of people. People in general listen to evidence they agree with. That's always been the case. That's human psychology.
