I see Reform UK are on #BBCQT again tonight, would one of the other panelists kindly ask

Is it fiscally responsible for Nathan Gill to make anti EU, pro Russia statements in exchange for bribes

But for Nigel Farage to make anti EU, pro Russia statements, without bribes?

"The fossil fuel industry continues to pocket massive profits and subsidies.

Meanwhile, everyday people bear the costs of climate catastrophe – from rising insurance premiums to lost livelihoods.

Those who shoulder the blame must foot the bill." @antonioguterres

Federal subsidies for fossil fuel companies have doubled to $35 billion a year since 2017, according to a new report. Authors warn oil and gas firms could receive even more in tax credits unless lawmakers act.
