Mainstream English-language outlets refer to the war as the “conflict in the Middle East,” as if the region just got up one morning and decided to set itself on fire.
On a lovely summer evening, Northern DMU 158797 - presumably working 2H97 - is just passing a cleared semaphore signal on the Settle-Carlisle line as it approaches Settle Junction. On the left is the line to Carnforth.

That’s what the Spiked idiots are: rentawankers for anyone who is willing to pay, and their entire job is to explain to dullards that the positions of libs and the left - anti-racism, anti-austerity, antiwar - are dumb, hypocritical and disgusting, whereas being a total cunt about everything is Punk

UK govt "will not tolerate" energy firms profiteering from Iran war.
It will do what?
Ofgem allows profiteering: electricity pricing formula is based on price of gas, renewables are the cheapest. Profiteering is built in.
Change the formula, levy windfall tax, prosecute profiteering execs.

In war, geography matters as much as technology. Iran commands the entire northern shore of the Gulf, looming large over energy fields on its southern shore and all that passes through its waters. Its Houthi allies are perched at the entrance to the Red Sea and along the passage to the Suez Canal; Iran is thus perfectly positioned to squeeze the global economy from both sides of the Arabian Peninsula. Those in command of Iran today are veterans of asymmetric wars in Iraq and Syria. They are now applying the same strategy to fighting the US on the battlefield of the global economy. Drones, short-range missiles and mines setting tankers and ports on fire can have the same effect IEDs had in Iraq, only with greater impact - disrupting global supply chains and sending oil prices higher.
Iran could sustain its counteroffensive more easily and for far longer. Furthermore, a ceasefire alone will not lift the shadow of risk that Iran has imposed over the Gulf, which is now experiencing its nightmare scenario. That is why Iranian leaders are saying they will not accept a ceasefire until Washington fully grasps the global economic cost of waging this war. Businesses, investors and tourists may not return to the Gulf states if they assume that war could resume again. Unless the US is prepared to invade Iran to remove the Islamic republic's leaders and then stay there to ensure stability and security, confidence in the Gulf will only return if the US and Iran arrive at a durable ceasefire. The pressure is building on Washington to seek one. It is not just Gulf states that want an end to the fighting, but also countries across Asia, Africa and even Europe, all of which fear serious economic crises unless the fighting stops soon.
Cheerful stuff in the FT. Trump has started something that he cannot control. This is arguably far more significant for the world economy than the oil crises of the 1970s.
