Though Ed Miliband was jumping and dancing about wind power becoming “Britain’s biggest source of electricity”, it was surely a terrible week for him and his plans. On Monday, the Daily Mail reported that wind power had “overtaken gas” in this strange metric of Net Zero’s progress. “This is a huge moment in our journey away from energy insecurity and towards clean homegrown power,” said Miliband.
