Well, I am not one to disagree with the prime minister when I think he's right, and in this case, I think his pragmatic, down-to-earth thinking is simply good advice. Technology may occasionally be old, maybe even a bit outdated, but if it is still in use, especially in a so-called era of climate change, one has to ask the question, "What's going to be up-and-running in the event of freak weather?"
