NEW ANALYSIS: UK household electricity bills have risen over the last 5 years.
BUT: Despite frequent claims that net zero is to blame: 2/3 of the increase is because of high gas prices shows new @ukerc.bsky.social report.
Arguably without renewable energy the UK would see even higher bills today.

The final deadline for full disclosure was 40 days ago, fwiw.
JUST IN: DOJ says its attorneys have reviewed and redacted “millions” of pages of Epstein Files material and should complete their review in the “near term.” But they say there’s no specific date or ballpark for the release. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Two things to learn from this.
1. The rightwing newspapers are lobby groups whose purpose is to advance the class interest of their proprietors.
2. Lobbyists for the rich and powerful lose their jobs if they are not prepared to lie.

We've spent ten years being proved right about all the things the loudest, biggest voices in the UK media insisted, often obnoxiously, we were wrong about. The real kicker is that there's no consolation whatsoever in being correct. Brexit, Putin, Johnson, Truss, Trump, Twitter, Netanyahu etc etc...

What’s happened in these cases (Spotify, YouTube etc) is that a corporation has decided to maximise its profits by not paying its suppliers and workers, while selling that idea to its customers as a bargain.
Same as Amazon or any high street fast fashion clothing brand. It’s a grift.
Fuck off.

This is unhinged. A 75 year old alliance in NATO is being trashed to serve one man's ego.
Trump is not a reliable ally, he's a reckless bully. Starmer needs a plan B to stand up for Britain and our allies.

Adding AI-generated images to your article is the 2020s equivalent of drowning your PowerPoint in clipart.
We do not need to see another picture of blue floating heads and gears connected by glowing lines. It does not help you make your point.
It just makes your thinking come across as low-rent.
