“Governments across Europe have been hammering away at electricity prices. Electricity prices have soared. Manufacturers have suffered. The obvious thing for them to do is to shut up shop and move somewhere where they have a say in industrial policies.” Andrew Montford

It says a lot that Starmer's policy is exactly the same as Michael Gove's - who basically caused a homelessness crisis. + I have no idea why the Department of Levelling Up was a project partner on a £810k project on "Gypsies Forging Sustainable Futures" gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=A…

“Labour is in denial. It is more devoted to sacrificing jobs on the altar of net zero than it is to ensuring economic prosperity. In truth, the incompatibility of the radical green agenda and prosperity and happiness has never been clearer. It is absolute folly.” Jacob Rees-Mogg

In 2008, UK industrial electricity was about halfway between the US and the average EU27 price. But while US (and Chinese) prices have dropped, UK prices increased to more than double the US in 2021, and since 2022, we have overtaken even the EU27. At these prices, power-hungry

Ed Miliband is shocked to discover that cancelling new licences, banning petrol/diesel cars, and literally declaring a Net Zero war on the oil and gas industry will result in them closing down. Over 400 jobs will be lost, and this is only the start. This man is really stupid.

Bill Esterson is the new chairman of the Commons Energy Select Committee. He recently posted his pitch to MPs to fill the role. Fair to say that there will be no meaningful scrutiny of Net Zero policy going forward?

Meet Bill Esterson, the new chairman of the Commons Energy Select Committee. It's a double celebration for Bill. 24 hours after his appointment he was also announced as the new chairman of the Association of Decentralised Energy. They're not even trying to hide it, are they?

With the chairman of the Commons Energy Select Committee also being the chairman of the Association for Distributed Energy, it's interesting to see that the chairman of the Lords SciTech Select Committee is the director of companies involved in: -hydrogen -wind -green
