Australian gas producers reap windfalls as Iran war chokes global supply Santos, the country’s second-biggest listed oil and gas producer, finalised a deal with a commodities trader at more than double recent market rates.

We should be taxing the fuckers into the ground.

War profiteering used to be a bad thing…

Anyone who wants Britain to join the war in Iran needs their head examined They don't know what they want to achieve, why they're doing it or what the consequences might be. They are lost in the void.

This is a real video from the official White House account on a war that is currently killing people. I don’t know how the US is going to come back from this.

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.

These are the psychopaths the British right think Keir Starmer should be slavishly following.

If you genuinely believe we should be committing British soldiers and taxpayers to people who think flattening schools full of innocent children is a joke, you’re no British β€˜patriot’.

This is what British minimum wage workers are now paying taxes to defend - the assets of foreign millionaires and billionaires in one of the world’s most notorious tax havens.

When councils can’t even afford to clean the streets at home.

Grotesque.

Trump didn’t fire Kristi Noem because she handed a $200 million personal marketing contract to her β€˜friends’ - he’s the most corrupt U.S President in history - but because:

1/ She didn’t have the brains to properly lie about it.

&

2/ She was telegraphing her intention to go for the Presidency.

My dad retired after paying income tax for 53 years.

He was discharged from hospital two days ago due to a lack of beds, despite being gravely ill.

Yet, we’re now paying for the defence of Middle Eastern dictatorships and Dubai tax-exiles’ flights back to Britain.

Grotesque.

After calling the U.S. State Department hotline with questions about how to get home from Dubai, a Texas resident said that the agent told her to β€œstop ranting and raving” and hung up. She's one of the thousands of travelers stranded by fighting in the Middle East. nyti.ms/3OP63tn

Four days ago, Donald Trump claimed this latest Epstein File distraction technique would β€˜take four weeks; maybe less’.

It’s like living in Orwell’s 1984.

The right keep claiming Starmer is a β€˜coward’ for not slavishly following America into another war.

Have these people forgotten the 1 million dead Iraqis and 638 British soldiers already?

True β€˜courage’ is refusing to put Trump and a bunch of dictators before your own people.

You gave your kids a smartphone and invited the kind of people you’d never want them to associate with in real life straight into their bedroom.

Exclusive: Ukraine's F-16 jets were starved of US-made missiles for weeks Ukraine's F-16 fighter jets didn't have enough missiles to shoot down Russian drones and missiles for more than three weeks after supplies from Kyiv's partners dried up just as Moscow was preparing a massive winter air campaign, three sources said.

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

Lobbyists send legal threats to councils over anti-wood burner campaigns At least eight councils receive legal threats alleging flyers criticising wood burners are in breach of advertising codes Lobbyists for the UK wood-burning stove industry have threatened councils with legal action over public information campaigns warning of the harms of air pollution. At least eight councils have received legal threats, according to research by the British Medical Journal (BMJ). The Stove Industry Association (SIA), which represents the UK’s expanding industry around the burning of wood in domestic settings, wrote to the councils, all London boroughs, in late 2023 complaining that flyers stating wood burners were β€œcareless, not cosy” were in breach of UK advertising codes.

I think you need to understand how and why WWII began, not least because Trump and the Republicans are following the Nazi Party playbook to the letter.

Fuel Duty has been frozen, and therefore cut, for 15 years in the U.K, turbocharging transport emissions and starving local councils of grant funding to repair our crumbling roads.

It’s been a disaster and it’s beyond embarrassing that any mainstream party would campaign to maintain the freeze.

638 British service personnel gave their lives coming to the aid of an America that hates Britain but loves a six-time Vietnam draft-dodger who talks more about his ballroom than the U.S war dead.
