@DaleVince @KemiBadenoch Your take on this is moronic. Every molecule of North Sea gas enters the UK system and provides us continuity and security of supply.

.@KemiBadenoch displays her total lack of understanding of the energy sector. She argues for more drilling in the North Sea to protect us from this energy crisis - seemingly oblivious to two very important facts. The first is we don't set the price of our north sea oil and gas - we let global markets do that. So in a crisis where global prices sky rocket, how can the answer can be to produce more globally priced oil here - it’s (energy market) illiterate to say so. The answer is to take control of our own energy pricing, starting with our own North Sea, as we have already with retail energy bills. Impose a price and profit cap. If we do this as part of an entire sector move - capping all wholesale prices, then we can combat this crisis and those that are coming next. The second very important fact Kemi seems unaware of is that it will take up to five years to produce anything new from our North Sea. So even if that could help us, it can’t help us with anything soon. And it won’t help us for long because our North Sea is all but empty, there’s 10% left. Our North Sea has been in decline for 30 years, shedding jobs and production capacity - because it’s running out - this has been going on for far longer than green energy has been a thing - to blame green energy for the decline of the North Sea is ignorant (of the facts). And Global markets have been filling the gap between what we make and what we use for decades now - Kemi seems not to know this either. As for energy bills, Badenoch seems unaware that the ‘green taxes’ we have on our energy bills were added by previous Tory governments. She seems also unaware that we spend vast sums subsiding fossils fuels - £17 billion a year at the last count. She operates in a fantasy environment, or would have us do - where green taxes have ruined the country and our oil and gas industry and all we need to do is drill more - it’s delusional. It’s straight out of the mouth of Trump.

@simonrug You would do better to look at the games. Lions have to go both Leinster and Munster so they are essentially 10 pointers for the Irish. Stormers have to go to Connacht. Glasgow, Connacht and Ulster all going to SA where they have nicked points previously.

@royboy011 Stormers already nailed on for the top eight. The crucial part for me is the Lions, Bulls and Sharks have three of their last five games at home. Could well see them all through to the play-offs.

All four South Africans sides - the Bulls, Lions, Sharks and Stormers - claimed bonus point victories in the URC this weekend. They are looking ominously strong as the race for the play-off spots hots up.

@ARugbyReferee @WheresTommyV A video showing the breaking of law 8.8 is hardly compelling. You never explained why the kicking team should get an unfair advantage by taking?kick closer to the posts? Any idea why someone who has worked hard to push the scorer further out should see their effort devalued?

@simonrug That is just over 50% which is what you would expect - not exactly devastating.

@Slipcatch And the lesson is keep 15 players on the pitch - Leinster’s own responsibility to deliver that.

After Leinster 1st yellow, Glasgow scored a try ... After a further 3 minutes, Leinster got a 2nd yellow and they scored a further 3x tries.

@Brendennel The 16 team format splitting into 2 x 8 for the knockouts was perfect. Changing that to accommodate the women was the biggest mistake. Amalgamating into GB was another mistake, I watchedScotland every sevens tournament but never GB. Other format changes have also been negative.

@ARugbyReferee @WheresTommyV Law 8.8 is very clear. a. Takes the kick in the field of play on a line through the place where the try was awarded, parallel to the touchlines. Nowhere do laws allow moving infield a few steps to take a drop kick, just where the ball moves. A player going closer is cheating.

@royboy011 @WheresTommyV There is no law preventing him moving infield. 🤦🏻 If he’s attempting a drop kick (especially from 30m) he will need a few paces to be able to attempt it.

@ARugbyReferee @WheresTommyV So you set your own standard that 5m is clearly wrong. So what standard should be applied? 4m?, 3m?, 2m?, 1m? What number are you “taught” rather than applying the actual law? Smith clearly moved more than 1m, explain why the team facing the kick should be penalised by even 1m?

@ARugbyReferee @WheresTommyV Teaching refs to not apply laws e.g hookers feet not being in the field for throwing in or scrum put-in straight is equally silly. How far would you let Smith run in field - 1m? 5m? 20m? The only fair number for both teams is 0m once the ball stops and that is the actual law.

@royboy011 @WheresTommyV It’s literally how referees are taught to referee this situation. I’m also glad I’m not refereeing your matches; you sound like that nightmare player who thinks he knows the laws better than the ref.

@ARugbyReferee @WheresTommyV Open your eyes and try to understand the English language. The ball did not roll to where Smith kicked it, it dropped off the tee and he picked it up then moved closer to the posts. Glad you aren’t refereeing my matches.

Fair play Italy 👏🏻. Vision and execution. Turned down penalty kicks for posts in the 2nd half because ultimately they backed themselves to win…

Labour has made a huge play over the past few years of re-establishing its credibility on defence. How’s that looking this morning. Who thinks with these assets, and under this leadership, we’re up for a fight with Russia.

@bencoles_ Smith is inadequate cover on the bench for. 6-2 split. He isn’t a fullback but injury to a winger, centre or full back means he is coming on at full back. Clueless selection. Hookers and Itoje all past it.

Boldest selection by England for a while. Bored of saying ‘this centre partnership could be the one’… but Atkinson-Freeman really could be. Hoped they would start with one of Chessum or Coles at six, but there you go. 50th cap for Ben Earl.
