The US-Iran conflict shows just how dangerous dependence on oil & gas really is.
Like with Russia's invasion of Ukraine, this crisis reveals how gas prices can soar leaving us vulnerable to price shocks beyond our control.
Developing clean energy can free us from Trump's geopolitical blackmail.
I love having qualified people in high levels of government.
Geopolitical turmoil in the Middle East once again shows that reliance on volatile oil and gas exposes economies to price shocks.
Renewables, electrification and storage offer more stable long term energy costs and stronger energy security.
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
Reform hate Britain and its culture. They’ll sell cultural works that belong to the taxpayer to the 1%. You have been warned.

Israel reports that Iran is using cluster bombs in the attacks. Authorities in Tel Aviv are outraged by this barbarism and remind that the only territory where such missiles can be used is Gaza and Ukraine.
Solar farms could increase global crop yields by hundreds of billions of pounds, thanks to the protective microclimate created beneath their panels.

Seems the Powers That Be are doing their best to erase Pedrew’s presence from
as much of the UK as possible.

Mayor Mamdani and a child play with Legos while looking very serious and concentrated. The child is impossibly adorable and wearing tiny blue glasses.
No interruptions, please. We’re building universal child care.
He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.

barack obama is eulogizing jesse jackson right now and he hasnt made a single mention of which late night tv show has been very mean and nasty or complained once about the 2010 midterms being rigged, its bizarre
This anti-war film from doing the rounds, was created by
@savechildrenuk.bsky.social when civil war broke out in Syria. We have not learned the lessons.
Name one war fought over solar panels and/or wind turbines.
You cant, and we know why.
Laugh all you want but it's the lads in the bottom picture I'd chat to in the pub, they look like they might be into history in stead of something boring.
The deranged attacks on Miliband have nothing to do with North Sea oil & gas, which peaked in 1999.
It’s about keeping Britain hooked on fossil fuels.
Even with new licences, North Sea output will fall by 95% from 2026 to 2050.
Only renewables can deliver British energy sovereignty.
Americans are complaining about having to pay $8 a gallon for gas thanks to loser Donald Trump's illegal war.
They might have to trade those gas guzzling tanks they drive around and just drive a normal car like everywhere else.

Indonesia suspends its participation in Board of Peace
“Indonesian FM Sugiono said the decision to suspend participation was taken because of the latest military escalation in the region, which has directly affected the foreign policy priorities of countries involved in the initiative”
We’re 7 days into something that looks like a war, feels like a war, costs like a war, has the same economic effects of a war, but we’re not supposed to call it a war because it would require the President to follow that annoying thing called the United States Constitution.
Sooo I guess I'm driving the EV instead of the gas car for the foreseeable future.
A screenshot of a post on X by an account called 'XFreeze', taking a TBIJ investigation out of context. Elon Musk reposted the post, replying 'Yeah'
This week, Elon Musk re-posted on X about an investigation we published into “wikilaundering” — paid-for editing on Wikipedia.
The post claimed our reporting found that Wikipedia was “corrupt to its core.”
That’s not what we reported... (1/2)
Putin = War Criminal
Netanyahu = War Criminal
Trump = War Criminal
Me on dates: "Did you know medieval people bathed, vikings didn't have horns on their helmets, Hugo Boss didn't design the Nazi uniforms, the beaked plague doctor mask didn't exist during the Black Death, Moors didn't introduce soap to Europe, Napoleon didn't shoot the nose..."
I saw a goose flying backwards, a squirrel recount verses of Horace, and here is Simon Jenkins with a correct take
2 wars in 4 years. This war will dramatically accelerate Solar +Batteries + EVs as real Energy Security.

Icy northern winds brought snow showers today, and a wintry weekend is forecast. Storms in the Channel also disrupted ferry services. Areas of East Anglia and Kent resembled scenes from Christmas cards.
