“Tony Blair’s suggestion that we have less green energy, and instead focus on carbon capture—which means burning more fossil fuels—is transparently self-serving for a consultant to oil-producing nations.” @dalevince.com on Tony Blair's vested interest in rubbishing net zero.

Sunday, April 13, 2025 Today missed being Easter by 22 minutes. Gregorian Calendar’s definition: First Sunday after the first Full Moon after the March Equinox. If the Full Moon had occurred 22 minutes earlier, landing yesterday (GMT), then today would have been that first Sunday.

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

China does 8% of its trade with the USA. 8%, if it does 0% they won't really care. The USA gets more than 40% of its stuff from China. The USA will be completely destroyed.

Once the face of EVs, Tesla is now losing ground as Chinese automakers dominate. With just 10% of global NEV sales, Tesla’s brand is fading, while Chinese NEVs are 3-5 years ahead in tech, efficiency & affordability. The clean energy transition isn’t Tesla-led—it’s China-led. 🔋⚡ #EV #Lithium #LFP

Except the draft Heads of Terms for #Drax announced today has a floor of 22% load ... meaning ... in later years like 2030/1 Drax will be paid even if renewables are >>78%of grid. This is crazy and would pay Drax to pollute ahead of renewables @fionaharvey.bsky.social @mpwatch.bsky.social

Really good read on how awful Keir Starmer is, how he's devoid of any ideology, and how the right wing of Labour continue to fuck the country over. Kinda wish Rayner had launched that coup, things may have been at least slightly better www.owenjones.news/p/keir-starm...

Liz Truss and Rachel Reeves have a lot in common www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/01... Liz Truss was, in reality, brought down by the Bank of England. That Bank has now laid the foundations for the crisis that is threatening Reeves. They have much more in common than most people would think.
