Just to keep jobs? No. To ensure resiliency of supply? maybe. Probably moot as this point though since we should be getting away from coal anyway.

- tialaramex 3y agoSure, Margaret Thatcher accidentally did us a favour by killing the coal unions. But just in case you thought "Good, no more coal" the Tories actually authorised a brand new coal mine not so long ago, because sure, it's a terrible idea but it will make somebody wealthy and as we see here, their priority is to make the wealthiest people even wealthier.
