UK energy standing charge plan could backfire.
Exorbitant standing charges hurt low users.
Regulator plans a new tariff - low standing charge & higher cost of each unit.
That won't do. Energy companies made £514bn operating profit since 2020.
Better to end profiteering, nationalize energy.

The BBC home webpage this morning is a reminder that mainstream media views 1400 Israelis as much more important than 67,000 Palestinians.
67,000 is the official number but actual death toll will be far higher.

The Greens are viewed more favourably than any other party in London and among younger voters, polling produced for the party has shown, with its leader, Zack Polanski, saying this showed they were “on track” to supplant Labour.
The YouGov poll, carried out to coincide with the Greens’ ongoing annual conference in Bournemouth, asked voters in England to rank the five main parties in order of how favourably they felt about them, rather than the usual metric of which they planned to vote for. Continue reading...

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?
Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.
It undermines police and the law.

Kier Starmer effectively endorses Reform, telling UK voters you are justified in voting for a far-right anti-immigration party.
The success of the far right is not only measured in votes and seats but in its impact on rhetoric, policy and ideology. The fact that a (nominally) social democratic head of government with a huge majority choses to say and do this is maybe the biggest success of the far right in Europe yet.
