A new record - on 5 December wind power produced enough electricity for 3/4 of UK homes
At 23.8GW it meant that even during winter peak demand, it was still providing nearly half the country's power needs
Still a way to go though....

Love how the response to "social media is dangerous, toxic and damaging" is "ban children" and not "hold platforms accountable".

Transphobia is repackaged misogyny. All of it. Always has been. The “transphobic feminism” movement is just a way to make turkeys gladly vote for Christmas.

Tell that to the heartbroken daughter of a friend who’s quit guides because of this shameful move, Joanne. She can’t bear to see trans girls excluded.
Your Harry Potter money funds this shit. Don’t buy in.

But what if the "thing of their own" is a friendship with a girl in Guides who happens to be trans?
I honestly think Rowling has lost touch with how real people's lives actually work.
And, also, Rowling's movement is gearing up to get girls kicked out of Scouts, so this "answer" is horseshit.
