Fracking enjoys widespread support in Britain, according to a new survey.
Research carried out by the research group Populus for UK Onshore Oil and Gas (UKOOG) found that 57 per cent were in favour of the controversial tachnique which extracts shale gas from the ground.
The poll quizzed 4,000 people and found that 16 per cent were opposed, with just over a quarter (27 per cent) undecided.
The poll shows that the public would like to see the government use both shale gas and renewables to meet the country’s energy requirements.

So because something else was safe, this is safe because it’s based on the same principle? Er…
Oh, and no, the principle is different.

just like everything else about current politics this is fixed – no human with intelligence and a conscience would ever condone what is clearly poisoning the water table. FIXED OUTCOME. NO DEMOCRACY!!!!
