The Telegraph admits that Brexit has been a disaster a mere 9 years after the vote.

Very demure.
Very mindful.
Very brave.

Reminder:
Green energy doesn't require war with oil-rich countries.
It's also sustainable and doesn't pollute our air.
It is also the future of the planet at large.
If we choose oil, we choose our own extinction.
So war for oil/oil = bad
Green energy = good
Thank you for attending my ted talk.

Nuclear power is expensive because it's *extremely dangerous*. It takes a vast amount of money, resources, time and effort to reduce the risk it poses to a level that our democracies have judged to be safe.

People seem to be slowly forgetting just how unforgiving and devastating nuclear can be.

Experts criticise “overly complex” rules and call for an overhaul of Britain's nuclear strategy.

New analysis by non-profit climate group Possible today:

Private jet passengers typically pay less than 1% of the cost of their flights in taxes, compared to 26%-54% paid by economy passengers on standard flights

Loopholes mean private jetters often pay little or no APD, nor fuel duty on kerosene.

Yet another unique way to stimulate cellular immunity against cancer.

“Using the gut immune system to induce cellular immunity is a unique approach,” Shirakawa notes. “And it should be very easy to extend it to other antigen proteins and also infectious diseases.”

Sizewell C is responsible for a quarter of the rise in the unit price of electricity from 1 January.

Meanwhile the unit price of gas has *fallen*.

The opposite of what we want!

From 1 Jan ⚡ goes up just over 1p; 0.35p of that is the new nuclear levy. ⚡ will be 27.7p per kWh, up from 26.4p.

Building EPRs is so fraught with the risk of delays and cost overruns that the financial markets won't finance them. They don't judge them to be commercially viable (because they're not). So instead the British government has resolved that you, dear bill payer, will carry the cost and risk.

First electric cars and buses, now trucks: in the past we were often told that electric trucks would not be feasible.

But the market is picking up speed and electric trucks have become a reality. Expectations are for significant market expansion in the coming years.
