In stark contrast to the completely reckless disregard for human health and safety not to mention property rights of the Cameron Government, the German Government is to ban hydraulic fracturing for a 'minimum' of 7 years. Ministers cite the 'concerns of the population' and suggest that 'the protection of health and drinking water have absolute priority'.
What a contrast with the stance adopted in the UK where the government would sooner spend millions on policing legitimate protest ( £2.5 million at the Balcombe demonstrations alone ).
