Yup, financial illiteracy of the UK public strikes again!

Shit idea from the electoral equivalent of toxic waste.

The real issue is going to be that there won’t be a middle class. Everything about our tax and benefits system is designed to bring about the destruction of the middle class.

Triple lock for state pension; inflationary pay cuts for NHS.

My issue with wind has nothing to do with what they look like and everything to do with the fact that wind energy is just gas with extra steps. If you build a wind farm you still need a way to generate electricity when the wind isn’t blowing because wind is non-dispatchable and has shit capacity factor. The only realistic option for dispatchable backup supply for wind is gas, which is why the oil and gas companies are so keen to push wind over things like nuclear.
