Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire.
Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines.
Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

Energy Flows in a Proposed East Midlands Hydrogen Ecosystem - My blog
Shetland’s HVDC link already exports clean power. So why convert it to hydrogen, ammonia, ship it, crack it, and burn it? A detailed analysis of the pipeline proposal.
