WTAF do these policy making people think that banning coal for domestic use will go down with the non urban population?
Do any of them ever leave the city?
In rural areas it is still very common to have an open fire and or solid fuel heating. What will happen to the local coal merchant?
Heritage railways e.t.c.
I have a "Stanley" solid fuel burner which I use in the colder winter months and it cuts down my waste as I can burn a lot of it.

This will not go down well in the rural areas.

The changes will mean:

Sales of bagged traditional house coal will be phased out by February 2021, and the sale of loose coal direct to customers will end by 2023

What about us who don't live in cities?

And I hate every bloomin on line form that says "City?" Some people don't live in Cities...

Just wait till they add Incense sticks and Yankee candles to the forbidden pleasures list!

This could be viewed at phasing out by 2050 or so but next year? That's our coalman and employees out of a job. In the great scheme of things it is just too much nanny state interference.
