This beggars belief.
It is insane to be spending almost twice as much upgrading the UK's gas network than its electricity network. The gas network must quickly become legacy, not future-proofed.

Nils "nominative determinism" Pratley at it again.
If only there was some magical technology that could multiply the calorific value of the limited gas by 3-4x, then all our heating worries would be solved.
Oh wait, there is.
Heat pumps = energy security.

While I do not condone violence, there is straightforwardly no equivalence between antifascists and fascists. Feels like Germany has gone down this path before and it did not end well.

Hey journalists! I know you're very smart and literate, but you are not very numerate.
This should say "your already very expensive shopping is going up by another 3.6%" Instead you imply things are getting better for me, rather than getting worse at a slightly slower rate than feared.

Not so much solar power in these Autumnal days. Elon pushed a new firmware update to my batteries that is "smarter" and greatly limits the amount of (cheap, off peak) electricity I import.
Now I don't have enough battery power to get through the day if I do laundry etc.

JFC. Seems like the UK Labour policy wonks have been kicked in the head by a horse.
The alternative: Tax heavy polluting vehicles properly, including stupidly large EVs, through VED.
Stop subsidising fossil fuels. Increase benefits for low-income people to offset the removal of said subsidies.

TIL that I badly mispronounce the Spanish verb to pay (pagar). Thankfully the bloke at the cafe had a sense of humour when I told him “I’d like to hit with my card, please.” (pegar)

I’m hoping this is the Guardian being the Guardian. The Bank of England should know that private schools fees are not in its basket of goods and services for measuring CPI, I imagine because so few people pay private school fees.

Me: which cities or towns are in more than one country.
AI: Cities located in more than one country are rare, but examples include Istanbul (straddling Europe and Asia).
The same company's knowledge graph could, no doubt, have answered correctly.

This is the most thermodynamically illiterate BS that I’ve read in a long time:

note also the 2% by volume which is much smaller as a proportion of energy.
Absolutely dismal.
