@James7Holland @CeeMacBee Barwell has become a bit of a joke character - the Comical Ali of the previous Tory regime. He and his ilk are the reason the Tories are now irrelevant. It’s ironic that he hates Reform, yet he created them

Only a fanatic could look at the political landscape in Brussels, Paris or Berlin today and believe that is the future Britain desperately needs. This is just the last spasm of the out-of-touch establishment that knows another trouncing at the ballot box in on the horizon.

I guess Seb has to pretend he thinks this if he wants to be selected as a Conservative MP, but it's absurd. The world is *much* less conducive to a free trading, go it alone UK than it was in 2016 - which is why public opinion has shifted decisively in the opposite direction

Newsflash. @reformparty_uk led councils are already purchasing these machines. Two more arriving in Nottinghamshire in 3 weeks time. And btw 4 years ago under the previous Tory administration we had the chance to buy a couple for 200k each but the Tory councillors said they were a waste of money and instead spent 500k on a cycle lane in Ashfield that runs for 50 yards. People do not have short memories. No one believes you.

@elonmusk We need about 100 Model X's for our scale up at POSTX in the UK - we used them for our pilot trial and they were hugely successful. I need you to jump on this @elonmusk 😉

Custom orders of the Tesla Model S & X have come to an end. All that’s left are some in inventory. We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars. This was me at production launch 14 years ago:

@LindaR39 I assume you apply the same logic to Nigel Farage? Do you know him personally? If not, your opinion of him is based on what you're told in the media, right?

Not many people know our PM personally. They form their opinion from what they’re told by the media. The media don’t want a Labour Govt so they give bad press. Then polls are carried out. The polls measure the success of the media - not the PM.
Lewis Goodall@lewis_goodall

@KeithMa95432918 @bottomley50 @Helenus_ @Channel4 He was nearly removed from office a month ago. Labour is polling at historic lows. He has at points been the most unpopular PM since records began. I’d say, politically, it’s all gone wrong yes.

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer's COBRA meeting on the cost of living has now concluded No 10 said: "The Chancellor, the Governor of the Bank of England, the Energy Secretary and others updated on the situation - all making clear that the best thing we can do for the economy is to de-escalate and bring the conflict to an end. "The Chancellor set out the steps she will take tomorrow - in a statement to Parliament - that will help protect working people from unfair price rises. "She spoke about a plan to detect and crack down on companies if they exploit the crisis in the Middle East. "This will take the form of a new anti-profiteering framework which will help regulators like the CMA to root out price gouging. "This comes after the Prime Minister announced he is looking at giving the Competition and Markets Authority “further teeth” so it can better protect customers from being ripped off. "As part of that, the government will not hesitate to introduce new time-limited, targeted powers for the CMA and other key regulators if that is needed. "The exact powers are being worked through at pace with the Treasury, Department for Business and Trade, and key regulators including the CMA"

@g__j I’m a big fan Greg, but the issue with heat pumps is not that the running costs don’t stack up, it’s the high entry cost. As and when I need to replace my boiler, I’ll do with a heat pump. But I won’t do before my boiler reaches the end of its life.

Gas boilers are not 95% efficient (in the real world they’re lucky to be 85)… Great to see the reception to our unique transparent dashboard showing the real world performance of all Octopus Cosy Heat Pumps installed in customers’ homes. Of course, some people who like burning stuff are always looking for “gotchas”. One of the most common is the assertion that “modern gas boilers are 95% efficient” This is horseshit. Just like cars hardly ever deliver the official miles per gallon figures, so boilers underperform too. Whilst an A rating boiler does indeed achieve 92% in lab tests, in the real world 80-83% efficiency is the norm for an “efficient” gas boiler (and older ones are much worse. Like 70-80%). There’s surprisingly little investigation into this - but here’s an official field study assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a75149b… If you’re interested - a condensing boiler typically needs to be set to 50 degrees - it then needs a return temperature of 30 degrees to ensure proper condensing - and needs to be running long enough to get into condensing mode —> characteristics pretty similar to a traditional heat pump in its most efficient mode! For which heat pumps are slammed by fossil fuel lovers. - it also needs thermostats set correctly and to be right-sized for a property whilst most are oversized Of course, if any boiler manufacturer wants to put their full fleet online so we see the real world data, we could compare to Octopus’s Cosy Heat Pumps. Being generous to boilers, if they have a typical efficiency of 0.85 and a real world Cosy has efficiency of 3.7, an Octopus heat pump is 4.35 times more efficient. With electricity being about 4.3 times more expensive than gas after April, this makes a heat pump cheaper to run. But a heat pump can use smart tariffs to access cheaper electricity, so it’s typically quite a lot cheaper to run - the real world data says someone on a heat pump has electricity at a 3.7 multiple per unit vs gas - so will be paying 17% less on average to use a heat pump than they would a gas boiler. Even more so if you can terminate the gas supply and save the standing charge (once you have a heat pump, you can get an induction hob and ditch the gas hob..) - another £130 annual saving from using a heat pump. Octopus’s huge investments in R&D and manufacturing are bringing costs down all the time, and you can see why the fossil industry is scared. Like canal owners looking at trains in the 19th century… Of course - Scandinavia’s already there. Norway is a huge gas producer but heat pumps are their dominant heating, whilst only 5% of homes have gas.

@tim_rolls Agree Tim. We have lower mid table goalkeepers, we don’t have a single CB worthy of the shirt. We insist on playing a double pivot, but only have 1 player who can play there. We’ve spent a fortune on left wingers and none of them are even half decent. We don’t have a striker…

There is a massive chasm in quality between the top European sides like PSG and Chelsea. How many of our players would get in their starting eleven? On their bench? From Porto to this rabble in 5 years. Worse, with our transfer strategy, it is hard to see how that will change.
