Wise words as always Secret DJ. 🫡 Reading it reminded me of an old colleague who was a frenzied Brexiteer, and who was convinced he would be able to drill for oil in his back garden after the UK left the EU. As far as I’m aware, he’s still a civil engineer and hasn’t struck oil in his back garden.😅

UK energy industry made £483bn profit since 2020. OFGEM's marginal pricing rules guarantee profits to the most inefficient/costly producer. 1 in 5 of all deaths are people in fuel poverty – including 110,000 pensioners. No curbs on profiteering. Real wages cut. WFP cut. Cost of living soaring.

Life expectancy growth stalls across Europe as England sees sharpest decline. Inequalities; poverty; poor access to good food, housing, healthcare, dentists; junk food take toll. Austerity kills. Govts obsessed with it. Redistribution is off the political agenda.

When Fines are not Fines. On 6 August 2024, Ofwat announced fines totalling £168m on three water companies – Thames Water £104m; Yorkshire Water £47m; Northumbrian Water, £17m. Not a penny has been paid. Companies with 400 criminal convictions are allowed to negotiate what and when they will pay.

The Brexit effects on the UK car industry keep rolling... NB to avoid the allegation of simplistic takes I am advised to point out that e.g. German and Spanish production has also declined in this period. But not by half.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding. This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.
