That 30 minute phone call and hour meeting on site, could have been a 10 line whatsapp, or a 3 para email. In fact it was a direct result of that 3 para email.

Perhaps read the email and the links, before you phone me?

Why do we keep putting scary fascist women into the job of UK Home Secretary?

I include the brief male holders of that post Jimmy Dimly, FKA Grant Shapps, Sajid Javid.

Lovely image today of packs of ‘feral’ Labour MPs chasing the smell of political blood through the halls of Westminster and across social media

3 Rolls Royce SMR Nuclear to be built in Anglesey. No mention of when they might come on stream. Or of the cost.

Naturally, the USA is upset they didn't choose Westinghouse.

Scale. Roughly 13GtC/Yr turned into 40GtCO2/yr and 60GTCO2e/yr until the 1TtC of accessible fossil carbon is all gone. DAC and CCS are just bullshit. Tiny rounding errors in the big picture.
Removing CO2 from atmosphere vital to avoid catastrophic tipping points, leading scientist says
10bn tonnes must be captured from the air every year to limit global heating to 1.7C, says Johan Rockström

It really sucks to be working age in the UK. Unemployed or economically inactive because:-
- Too young and inexperienced
- Too old and over-experienced
- Long term sick
- Nobody's hiring
- The only jobs are zero hours, gig economy
- Your white collar job got "replaced" by AI or just dropped

Maybe the BBC should just pull out of the US market completely. No programming and no news reporting.

It's obviously a stupid idea and completely impossible. But still.

Now Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day are over, it's time to put the street Christmas decorations up.

So it's time to take all the flags down.

47 years since the earth had a year when the global mean surface temperature was below the 20th-century average (1901-2000 baseline). 1976.

If you were born after 1976 — which is two thirds of humanity — you've never experienced a colder-than-average year. That is, a year when the global mean surface temperature was below the 20th-century average (1901-2000 baseline).

So, Mr Milliband. When are you going to wean us off woodchip and close Drax? Just after you wean us off Gas-Peaking power plants, right? And well before Hinckley C comes on line and Sizewell C is cancelled.
