- pjc50 9y agoThis is like all other power stations in a privatised economy. For example the Hinkley Point C power station is subsidised by the UK but constructed, operated and will send profit (if any) to the French state-owned EDF. Energy is a reserved area and not within the remit of the Scottish Parliament.
- gaius 9y agoYes it's ironic that all our utilities ended up as state owned after all!
- jamiegreen 9y agoEngland ≠ UK
- Wildgoose 9y agoI think he knows that - hence making the distinction between England (footing most of the cost) and Scotland (getting the credit).
