Ouch. That is a bad statistic. Hopefully improving robotics might help evacuate more faster to avoid creating cripples.

you mean this?

Well, tunnelling has been used by sappers for milennia -but at rates of say 100 days/km it's a tad slower than a cruise missile.

bonkers

I think you’re a bit optimistic. Trump has shown that the US at any time can elect someone that can backstab their allies. Even if the next president swings the pendulum back, there are no guarantees for the future. This is why most European countries have bipartisan foreign policy. Stability is 👍

They’ve taken some action, but international waters law is very strict I understand. I honestly was expecting more inventive interpretations.

I believe that the states from the Baltic to the North Sea should demand the shadow ships to;
1. Have proper insurance
2. Be submitted to seaworthiness controls
3. Have the crews registered

It’s international sea, but we should demand a minimum of safety to our environment

Which makes all this the more interesting. When one of these go tits up in the Kattegat, who will pay for the rescue operation. What about the enormous environmental damage?

Insurance? What insurance? The shadow fleet only has the papers from fake companies. There is no insurance

Hahaha. I almost wish she would say that.

My thoughts exactly, great timing too.

and that Trumps gets nominated for the Peace Prize.

If you see what happens with every other 'peace deal' that that man touches I think it is clear you don't want this for us.

Can you make it logarithmic? Always a good answer, and it is a safeguard against devaluation. Futureproof!

BHP Group had an EBIT of $25bn in 2024. At $23bn over 10 years it will be a hit of 10%

Pretty wild, supplying your enemy so that they can continue supporting attacks on your country?

Agree, I think we can say its proven that thoughts and prayers won't feed babies.

Nigeria is next, ironic isn't it?
