@dannymoore_ni @SJAMcBride Nuclear power is the obvious way for NI to balance it's electricity system while maintaining the commitment to cut fossil fuel use.
Needs political leadership to get behind it and dispel misapprehensions

⏰💳 Sunday trading hours: “There’s got to be a better way of making Belfast city centre work.”
🗣️ City centre retailer @SuitorBrothers speaking to our reporter @mckee23_r
💬 A public consultation is underway on extending Sunday opening hours during peak tourist periods across the city.
Belfast City Council has agreed in principle to introduce holiday resort status which would allow larger stores to open anytime on Sundays between 1 March and 30 September.
Under current laws, larger stores are limited to 1-6pm Sunday hours. Smaller stores are free to set their own hours.

Bloomberg: "the energy industry is warning that the crisis is only beginning. In conversations with more than three dozen oil and gas traders, executives, brokers, shippers and advisers over the last week, one message was repeated over and over: The world still hasn’t grasped the severity of the situation.
...If the strait stays closed, the world will have to significantly reduce its oil and gas consumption — but not before prices spike to a level that forces consumers and businesses to fly, drive and spend much less."

An @AerLingus Regional flight from Manchester to Belfast spent almost 90 mins circling over the city before landing.
The flight normally takes 42mins - @flightradar24 shows this one taking 2hrs 14mins.

@DudeWhoInvests The most work people like you used to do was a commute to and from a place you did nothing of value in all day. Now you are a fake online investor.

@sentdefender Trump needs an exit that allows him to declare victory and save face. The only exit is a deal with Iran and them agreeing to stop the attacks on shipping. Trump has lost this war. Only fools believe otherwise.

Reopening the Strait of Hormuz, military analysts say, may require a ground operation to seize the Iranian coastline along the vital waterway between the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman. Such an operation would mark an open-ended escalation, potentially leading to much higher casualties among U.S. and Allied Forces, according to the Wall Street Journal.

@timcairns @Gatwick_Airport Remember when we used to have our own special gate in Heathrow
English

Police out in force and heavy handed @Gatwick_Airport due to illegal immigration from Belfast flights. About 20 very aggressive police officers demanding ID as illegal immigrate are “abusing flights from Belfast” I was told this will be here to stay.
This is news to me
