00:15everywhere are not trying to prevent that because they're the golden boys, they make
00:20lots of money but the average person in the street is having to pay for all of their big
00:26cars and their way of life and it's very wrong.

00:48don't think we need more expensive energy but it does need to, we do need to lean towards
