Right Wing parties: we hate the sight of solar farms and wind turbines, let's frack instead!

What fracking actually looks like:

I'm surprised he can remember that he's MP for Clacton, never mind actually putting in a day's work at Westminster.
Did he pull a sickie from his foreign-funded day job at GB-so-called-'news'?

Good morning.

A regular reminder: a tiny few hoard staggering wealth and own much of the media, while millions struggle to survive.

That’s not an accident. It’s a choice made by those in power.

Tax wealth. Fund public services. Build an economy for everyone - not the 1%.

Decarbonising building heat is essential to the energy transition, yet progress remains too slow.

Heating is still a major source of emissions.

Stronger policy, sustained investment and political commitment are needed to scale solutions and meet net-zero goals.

Fair enough.
It seems the UK is faced with a really tough dilemma.
Do we throw in our lot with reliable, relatively sane neighbours, with whom we have numerous interests in common, or grovel to a distant, unreliable and unstable despot?
Gosh, these government choices are so hard!

Indeed.
There's a strange inconsistency in the politics of those who say that the way to motivate the poor is to pay lower wages, causing them to work harder, yet OTOH that to get the best leaders one must pay the highest wages.

This is a headline in a publication not noted for journalistic integrity.

Cory Doctorow's book 'Enshitification' is a must-read on this.

I had to smile quietly to myself when I burst the bubble of a car salesman who'd just told me that whereas my car did not have OTA, the newer model had, to which I replied that NOT having OTA was why I'd be keeping the car I have!

🟥 Brexit promised rule-making.
Delivered rule-taking.
If we’re going to follow EU rules anyway,
why aren’t we helping write them?

He is right on this one, they don't have windmills. They use factories for processing grain to make flour. Wind turbines, yes, they have plenty of them. Trump can carry on not approving windmills, as long as wind turbines aren't affected.

I've been surprised on more than one occasion when people criticise alleged indoctrination at universities, clearly showing they have no understanding of how good teachers encourage critical thinking.

We can’t go on like this.

In just two days, the average FTSE 100 CEO has made a median workers full time annual salary.

The right calls this “wealth creation”.

It’s wealth extraction.

Time to tax the rich.
