This photo is the steel reinforcement of the base of a wind turbine, you will still have to add between 600 and 800 M3 of concrete, which is a weight of nearly 2000 tons! Once the wind turbine is dismantled, this base will forever be buried in the ground.

IF Albanians are genuinely coming here to seek asylum, why don’t they just pay £50 for a safe flight to a UK airport, rather than £5,000 for a dangerous crossing of the English Channel?
