Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.
Enough to power 23 million homes!
U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

If youmust give trains a flag themed livery, it can be done tastefully. The new Great British Railways livery is not it. Why does everything have to be 'Great' British? It smacks of desperation. The livery looks like a GB News studio on wheels. The ScotRail livery is how to do it successfully.

I know several Chechens committed to the cause and they have told me some out-of-this-world horrors about the dangers they face even in Europe, not to mention their families and relatives back in Chechnya.
We could at least share the article to make it known.

Opinion | Chechen voices are being silenced, even those abroad
Until the fear of collective punishment ends, even the simple act of speaking publicly is a privilege that most Chechens don’t have.

Scotland is energy rich, yet has some of the highest energy bills in Europe. It's time for a fresh start with lower energy bills.

<div class="content">
<div class="field field-field-text"><p data-end="113" data-start="0">Israel has confirmed the launch of work on a new border wall with Jordan, extending its expanding militarisation of surrounding areas and of the occupied West Bank. </p>
<p data-end="571" data-start="394">In the first stage, Israeli authorities will construct two separate stretches, each around 80 kilometres long, along the north-eastern section of the Israel-Jordan frontier, the Israeli daily Haaretz reported.</p>
<p data-end="878" data-is-last-node data-is-only-node data-start="573">Officials estimate the project will cost about more than $1.7 billion and form part of what it claims is a wider “multi-layered” security structure expected to run roughly 500 kilometres, from the southern occupied Golan Heights down to north of Eilat, further entrenching Israel’s securitised and colonial expansion across the region. </p>

Why do I call Tories scum? In 2023, Sunak admitted they dropped basic scrutiny for the PPE VIP lane. By 2025, his dodgy furlough scheme, bounce-back loans and Eat Out to Help Out had racked up billions more in fraud. Sunak and Johnson ended up costing the British taxpayer an eye-watering fortune.
