Nimby, Numby, Nomby, or should it be Numpty

Most people know these acronyms but as the big six energy suppliers inform us that the more people complain about not having new power stations or new power lines and pylons in in their areas. Then these companies say that the longer it takes to sort out these planing permissions all it does is push up the cost to the consumer. It's all well and good these people complaining that they are unsightly and that they are destroying the green belt is just a pack of lies. The truth is that they want the electric but not coming to them via new power stations or overhead lines in their vicinity. Its OK to build them in other areas but not in their  back yard, but they want the electric. Well if they  have that attitude then its a pity we can't cut these people off. They would soon change their minds if they could no longer get the electric to power their homes. Its all well and good to say that they want cables burying in the ground as opposed to pylons when the cost for a mile of overhead cable costs £1.6 million per kilometer compared to £18 million per kilometer to bury it. If these people want that then let these people foot the bill. My electric bills are steep enough as it is now I don't want any extra burden just so that these arrogant peole can have a nice view over the country side near them. Its the same as the people who don't want a third runway at Heathrow airport because it may impact on their environment, I'm sorry for that but don't buy a house under a flight path.  But again these same people who are against the runway don't bother when they are jetting off for their holidays by air. Then its OK, their  only grumble then will be the congestion due to a shortage of runway capacity. These people may be Nimby or Numbys or Nombys or the new one Bananas build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything. The voices of the new Luddites. or numptys who may have more money than common sense., and may be rich enough to incur an extra few hundred pounds on their electric bill. Well I've got news for them there are millions of people who don't have any spare capital to fund  this unnecessary burden.
