Apart from the environmentalists, too many, austerity ravaged, Middle Englanders seem to be too complacent about fracking, unless, of cours,e it’s immediately in front of their own house.

In case you’ve missed it, I’ve running a series of blogs on what happens when the fracking arrived in town; the articles are blogs from Pit, a German expat living in Southern Texas.

Isn’t it about time that the “Middle Englanders” challenged the political classes?

Any thoughts?

Although no expert, I tend to think that the article over-simplifies a bit. For example, surely Texas is famous for much more than Nachos and New York has more than Pizza?

 

What do you think?
