How do the States of Guernsey ever hope to regain the trust and respect of those that vote them in when they display such ambiguous behaviour. They seem to forget that in today's world every decision and statement they make is open to intense scrutiny. First of all in this economic climate they award themselves pay rises, making sure this happens before announcing the financial black hole in our finances. Then they play the now obligatory environmentally friendly green card and make statements about looking into the possibility of wind and tidal power options while in the next breath announcing that they are looking into the possibility of spending obscene amounts of money on a deep water quay to bring in fuel!!!!!! Everyone around the world is looking into alternative sources of power and we as islands are surrounded by one of the greatest assets that nature can provide us with that of tidal power. By all means buy some time by repairing the ships to extend their life, if the Chinese can build another Titanic I'm sure they can find a solution to repair these ships and in the meantime invite these companies who are at the forefront of developing tidal power to the island and give them incentives to set up here so that we can begin to harness the power of the sea that surrounds us.
