Amazing news out of Belgium! 🇧🇪 Increasing nuclear will help build a strong, resilient grid, providing Belgians with cheap, abundant zero-carbon electricity.
I say build build build when it comes to nuclear reactors.
Belgium has seen the light - the planned nuclear phase out has officially been phased out!

102 votes in favour, eight against and 31 abstentions.

Nuclear accounts for 40% of the country's total power generation, and the government is in favour of adding more.

Belgium parliament votes to ditch nuclear power phase-out
The latest move comes as global interest in the nuclear sector is at its highest since the oil crises of the 1970s, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Today marks the one year anniversary when Great Victoria Street permanently closed after twenty-nine years of service.
It was a sombre but momentous occasion, a day to celebrate the end of an era.

So, the Trump administration has stupidly argued that the United States needs even higher tariffs and has tried to justify this on the official White House Twitter page with a cherry-picked graph comparing the US to....

In an era of aggressive political tribalism and nastiness, it is incredible to see that Canada has stuck to its values of liberalism, tolerance, and openness. Canadians should be rejoicing. 🇨🇦🇨🇦

Even though it is no longer
Earth Day at the time of the post, these words still nevertheless remain true.
Degrowth is nonsensical pseudoscience and harmful misinformation that fails to fix the problems it purports to resolve.
Happy Earth Day!

Degrowth is a myth. Significant economic growth enables the adoption of stricter environmental regulations, which in turn reduces emissions, without diminishing people's quality of life.

In an amusing piece of Easter news, eggs have become so expensive in the United States that people have resorted to painting and decorating potatoes.
Guess voting Trump didn't work out after all, eh?! 😂😂😂

For those who celebrate it, I just want to wish you all a very Happy Easter!

Yes, I hope the EU fines the every loving daylights out of X. The amount of damage they've done to political discourse is undeniable.
The EU should also ban any government official from both using X and having it installed on their devices.

Assad is a genocidal war criminal who belongs in prison. He should not be allowed any social media access full stop.

Reopening the Knockmore line would be great for Northern Ireland, giving fast-growing towns such as Crumlin and Glenavy rail access again while also improving access to the International Airport.
Stormont such 100% reopen the line.
As March approaches, it is imperative that the utmost care and attention is given to the Knockmore Line by both Translink and the Department for Infrastructure.

Economic growth and free trade are great things, actually.
And we should all be pushing for more of it if we wish to thrive.

Despite its many issues, it's great to see Poland experiencing such a massive growth in economic prosperity.
If more European countries get their act together, the continent can truly become a world-class centre of innovation again.
The latest IMF World Economic Outlook expects Poland to overtake Japanese GDP per capita next year.

Poland gets any notice because it doesn’t fit the narrative of "European decline.”

I remember seeing these signposted on the M1 on many journeys to the west of Northern Ireland.
This was the nearest thing we had to a service area for many years, unless you include the ramshackle collection of facilities west of Dungannon, which don't count in all honesty.

Oxford Street would really benefit from full pedestrianisation. More opportunities for social events, more space for people to relax, less noise, less pollution, the benefits are monumental.
Great to see Sadiq Khan pushing for it!
NEW: the Mayor of London has launched a big consultation on making Oxford Street safe and friendly for pedestrians. Please send in your comments using the link in the next post.

I spotted this alongside the quay while visiting Newry two months ago.
Quite unusual to see a Republic of Ireland standard direction sign in Northern Ireland, but given Newry's location, it strangely doesn't feel too out of place.
