One way they could get more disposable money into households would be to unpeg renewable energy from the gas price, estimates suggest that households could save in excess off £500.

Renewables currently creates 42% of the UK's energy, with the planned 2 extra offshore windfarms they expect 60%

The migration shrank from Jan - June 2025 dramatically, this cost the UK around £14 Billion of GDP.

📌 Key takeaway:

This isn’t about outright bans.

It’s about quiet erosion, through legal framing, compliance demands, and technical downgrades.

Privacy tools are being reframed as threats.

🔮 Looking ahead: VPNs and secure tunnels could be next.

Age verification proposals already pressure VPN providers to identify users.

The same logic used against encrypted apps could extend to privacy infrastructure.

🧠 The paradox:

Surveillance laws meant to strengthen security may actually weaken resilience.

Backdoors and downgrades create vulnerabilities criminals and hostile states can exploit.

⚠️ Weakening encryption doesn’t just affect individuals.

It risks:
– Business secrets leaking
– Government communications being intercepted
– Citizens losing everyday protections against fraud and abuse

📱 End‑to‑end encryption obstructs surveillance.

That’s the tension: governments want access, but apps like Signal and WhatsApp are designed to keep conversations private.

Jonathan Hall KC’s official review of the National Security Act 2023 shows how broad the definition of “hostile activity” is.

It doesn’t just cover espionage or sabotage, it could catch legitimate developers of secure apps.

🐬 Offshore windfarms aren’t just turbines, they’re safe havens.

Protected zones help seabirds, dolphins & fish stocks recover.

The Marine Recovery Fund invests directly in habitat restoration.

#MarineRecovery #GBEnergy

🌊⚡ Reform UK want to stop renewables.

But Britain’s new Marine Recovery Fund shows why that’s the wrong path:

✅ Marine habitats restored
✅ Energy security strengthened
✅ Jobs in coastal communities
✅ Renewables = cheapest new electricity source
