      Cue a load of miserable nimbys with full on compoface in the local press: ‘saffron Walden residents against the mines’

      Never going to happen.

      When you have to spend almost £300 million pounds just on the planning application for a road before you even put a spade in the ground, then the UK is utterly fucked when it comes to any sort of construction project – [https://news.sky.com/story/thames-tunnel-project-delayed-after-planning-it-cost-more-than-worlds-longest-road-tunnel-13230526](https://news.sky.com/story/thames-tunnel-project-delayed-after-planning-it-cost-more-than-worlds-longest-road-tunnel-13230526)

      No chance, I work in the supply chain for mines and the UK is an absolute nightmare for starting projects. In my experience, the ESG requirements make them unviable.

      When I found out Woodsmith was using a tunnel to transport ore 30miles to the coast, I was absolutely amazed. Everywhere else they’d just have used trains or a pipeline.

      Also, the impression of modern mining is completely outdated in the UK. The reality is one of highly paid jobs with very little footprint, especially if they’re underground.
