@renewablesmiffy What you are not saying is that with renewables you have to run parallel energy systems for when renewables are intermittent to keep the lights on. So we pay for 2 systems hence our energy prices are the most expensive in the world.

Almost 90% Renewables, exporting 4GW and negative wholesale prices. Fossil fuel funded media and lobbyists spent years tell us all this was impossible.

I heard reports of second-tier universities from far-flung parts of the country claiming thousands of students - mainly from outside the UK - are studying in office buildings in London So I went to have a look - video below I’m concerned these international students using “London campuses” are using study to get a visa

I sold my holdings in BP this afternoon when it hit 550 for a +25% gain. It’s been a great investment especially with the current market situation and I’ve been very fortunate to buy when I did. It may go higher but I’m not waiting to see. Good luck if you still hold.

I’ve just felt the biggest seismic political tremor I can remember. As a 17 year old politics student in 1989, sitting in arm chairs smoking Camel Lights by an open fire in the attic of my Politics tutor’s house in Brighton, I used to make it my challenge to try and work out what his politics were. I never succeeded. What he taught me that it is not politicians, parties or people that matter, only policies. I’ve been politically neutral ever since. I’ve voted for 4 different parties over the years and at each election I vote based on policies first, and the accomplishments of would be ministers, second. I’ve long despaired of the decay of our political system, becoming ever-less effective, with ever-more prime ministers being switched in and out whether we voted for them or not. But what’s just happened has sent shudders and shock waves through the entire system in a way I’ve never noticed or felt before. A previously unheard of party has launched and in 3 days signed up more members than the traditional 3rd place party has, and is polling in similar numbers. It’s far too early to say what happens, but the initial reactions are of subdued shock on the left and overt panic on the right. It’s significant because its popularity threatens to kneecap the current largest party in the polls and thus render our next election much less of a certain outcome. I predict establishment panic. The Tories governed themselves into oblivion and, despite a genuinely impressive performance by Kemi Badenoch, stand little to no chance at the next election. Labour are currently in self-destruct mode too, and will destroy themselves much faster than the Tories did. The Lib Dems have never recovered from their disastrous showing as a coalition government and their current leader is a farcical glove puppet of a character with someone else’s arm for a spine. Reform has objectively achieved impressive standing in the polls but seems to be running out of steam and may have peaked too soon, losing some of its early fans over the very public and bitter split with two of its early supporters. The Green Party has lost its way completely despite the fleeting popularity of Zack P until it became clear he couldn’t be taken seriously as a leader. If the new party, “Restore Britain” gathers as much support and momentum as it looks like it might, it could completely remap the political landscape in very unpredictable ways. I think we are about to witness a brutal and bloody battle between the globalist left, and the nationalist right of British politics. I think many MP’s are going to find it hard to choose where best to align themselves during this battle, and we’ll see many of them stand quietly on the sidelines waiting for a victor to emerge before they decide where to place their loyalties. It would be an astounding, historic feat if a brand new party were to come out of nowhere and win an election first time out. Unlikely if not impossible. But the size of the seismic shock reaction I have seen and felt, both here and abroad, to the launch of this new party, is unlike anything I’ve witnessed in my 35 years of political onlooking. If I had to characterise it simply, I’d say it looks as though they’ve struck a chord with a politically homeless and disenchanted electorate who are less concerned with ideology than the basic ability to earn a living and enjoy a decent life. People seem tired of politics as a whole because it’s delivered nothing of real benefit for decades. Ignoring ideology, the new party (as right wing as it will be seen) seems to want to undo the political and governmental sclerosis and return some power to the voters who feel they’ve had none for too long. That alone might be enough to unite a majority, especially if the political right can rise above the cat-fighting that currently blights most parties. It will not be dull. But whenever the next election comes, remember, it’s only policies that matter.

Today we attended court in Chelmsford regarding Muqbil Al Dhaheri, 36, who sexually assaulted an NHS staff member at Broomfield Hospital — and it was very eye-opening. When we arrived, we were told we couldn’t enter the courtroom because it was a “sensitive case” and police expected hundreds of protesters outside. In reality, there was not a single protester there. Because of this, public access was restricted and only seven of us were eventually allowed in alongside the press. He arrived at court on the public shuttle bus that runs 365 days a year from Wethersfield into Chelmsford, Braintree and Colchester. He had a phone, a watch, and was wearing a coat with a Union Jack sign saying “Good for nothing, United Kingdom.” He sat in the waiting room while we, as members of the public, were told we could not sit in the same waiting area. In court, it was stated his date of birth is recorded as 01/01/1990. A plea was made that he had never broken the law before. We also heard he missed two pre-court meetings — one by email and one by text — and did not attend either. It was claimed his asylum lawyer advised him not to attend the second. The court also heard he does not understand right from wrong and that his level of danger has not yet been fully assessed. The case has now been adjourned, and he is allowed out Monday to Thursday until the next hearing, meaning he can still travel into town and city centres during half term. The next court date is 7th April, Court 1, Chelmsford at 10am. He required an interpreter, had a lawyer and a probation representative present, yet the case centres around the sexual assault of a frontline NHS worker. What we witnessed was restricted public access based on a protest that never happened, missed official meetings, and a case adjourned while risk is still being assessed. Most importantly, an NHS worker at Broomfield Hospital was assaulted. That should be the focus. Justice for victims and accountability should come first. @HollyEngland25

How would a Restore Britain Government support small businesses? First step, and possibly the most important. We understand the problems and trust me, I know how difficult it is. I’ve been there, I’ve done it. The effort that goes into keeping a small firm profitable and operational is vast, and NOBODY in Government understands that. THE most important way to help small businesses is tax. GET IT DOWN. Corporation tax - we should be aiming for the lowest in Europe. Undercut our neighbours, take their business. Be ruthless. Make Britain the most attractive place to operate on the continent. Watch how the money then flows in. Rates will slashed on income and dividend, thresholds pushed up. We must urgently reward success. NI not raised, but cut. If we want businesses to hire, MAKE IT CHEAPER. Because what happens when employment gets more expensive? Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment is paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. They wait and see. Everyone suffers. IR35 will go in the bin on day one. Things change, contracts change, circumstances change. IR35 accounts for none of that, adding layers of unnecessary paperwork and regulation. Flexibility matters. VAT threshold would be doubled. There are so many businesses hovering just under £90k, desperately avoiding VAT. Fair enough, I don’t blame them. So let’s hike the threshold and unleash that demand. We would like to see a tax holiday for small businesses in the first few years - give them the breathing space they need to grow and find their feet. HMRC will pick up the phone, and you will be able to speak to an advisor who can actually speak fluent English. What a mad shock that would be... We will end the HR-ification of Britain that is used to blackmail employers. Regulatory frameworks that are used to suffocate small businesses will be burnt away. Farage attacks private sector employees working from home. I couldn’t give a shit where people choose to work. If the employer and employee are happy, then it’s none of our business. Failing public sector officials? Different story. Business rates for small businesses, abolished. We will brutally crack down on illicit trading - does Britain need so many Turkish barbers and vape shops? The answer, quite obviously, is no. Let’s be honest about what’s really often going on here. Money laundering. There would be free car parking in high streets all over Britain. These little gnomes in councils have no idea. If parking is free at the retail parks, people will just go there. Let’s encourage them back into our high streets - that means tackling crime too, obviously, but one step a time here... Licensing laws, planning bureaucracy, council red tape. We will obliterate it all. Let’s back British hospitality. Cut VAT, business rates abolished and burn back the endless nonsense they have to deal with. Ease laws on closing times and fast-track permits for outdoor seating. If people want to enjoy a late night drink or two, it's none of our business to tell them otherwise. Restore Britain will put those jumped-up little council bastards back in their box. I promise you that. Inheritance tax will be abolished. If a family wants to pass their business down the generations, then Government must not stand in the way. Tax has been paid, there should not be another bill following a death. It’s wicked and cruel. Above all else - businesses need stable, long term thinking. The Budget should be a complete non-event, other than further tax cuts. This can all be funded by brutalising down the fraudulent state that has become the enemy of the people. And let me tell you this. ANYBODY who gets business will understand that these measures will pay for themselves many times over. If we reward hard work, then we’ll get more of it. More tax will be paid, and the economy will boom. These are just my initial thoughts on what a Restore Britain Government would do. We would create an environment in which it's easy to do business, and then we would leave you the hell alone. The message is this to small business owners... Restore Britain is on your side. You finally have a political party that will fight for your interests.

Why is Ed Miliband hiding the secret energy deal he signed with China? I just asked him to publish the full text of the deal he signed with the Chinese Communist Party last year. His response? To call it a 'wacky conspiracy theory'. So here are the facts👇🏾

Climate activists tell us that summer heat in the U.S. is becoming more extreme. But the real-world data says otherwise. The chart on the left shows the average per station annual number of days reaching 95°F (35°C), 100°F (37.8°C) and 105°F (40.6°C) at all 657 United States NOAA GHCNd stations (weighted by area) with at least 100 years of daily temperature data (90% daily completeness) from 1895 to 2025. The long-term trend is markedly down. 📉 𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝟏𝟎 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐓𝐦𝐚𝐱 ≥𝟗𝟓°𝐅: 1⃣ 1936 2⃣ 1934 3⃣ 1954 4⃣ 1931 5⃣ 1933 6⃣ 1913 7⃣ 1925 8⃣ 1980 (most recent) 9⃣ 1930 🔟 1911 Interestingly, only one of top 15 has been recorded in the last 70 years, and only two in the 21st century made the top 20 (2011 and 2012, which sit at 17th and 19th place, respectively).

But a more robust metric to assess time-dependent changes in extreme heat events would be to look at the average number of heatwaves per station per year. The chart on the right shows just that. Heatwaves are defined here as a ≥3 consecutive day period with the daily maximum temperature is ≥90th percentile (against 1991-2020 averages) for that date for that station and for the months May-September. 𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝟏𝟎 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐬: 1⃣ 1936: 5.77 2⃣ 1934: 5.39 3⃣ 1933: 5.15 4⃣ 1931: 4.90 5⃣ 1911: 4.85 6⃣ 1954: 4.71 7⃣ 1925: 4.59 8⃣ 1930: 4.41 9⃣ 1913: 4.35 🔟 1952 / 1939: 4.34 Interestingly, none of the top 20 have been in the 21st century. The most recent summer with the greatest number of heatwaves per station occurred in 1988. All of the remaining 19 occurred 70 years or more ago. It is also worth mentioning that whether or not you consider the 1930s to be an outlier, 2012 is the most recent entry at #30.
