I wonder if this is going to be like the covid years all over again,
there are murmerings of fuel rations coming in,
which will restrict movements ,and also of a nationwide outbreak of this meningitis disease taking hold and crowd restrictions coming into force, lets hope neither take hold,
but reading between the lines at least on the fuel situation this seems more than likely.

The Yanks could easily pump more oil, to mitigate for any shortage.

Starmer is a puppet and Ed Milliband is the fraud of the millennium for the UK and he’s going to cost us (the tax payer) more and more as we get less and less!

Sven when we finally get to millapeeds goal of net zero after decimating our energy industry and all out of work, we will have contributed 1% less carbon emissions to the world,
i am all for green energy but no need to be in such a race lets use 60 years of oil reserves while we transition to nuclear solar and wind.
While we are on green stuff why is wave power not the most popular,
as the sun does not always shine
the wind sometimes stops,
but the waves never stop,
always puzzled me, probably the cost but it's the most repetitive and reliable of all green energy.

Imagine closing our North Sea wells, then buying from Norway, who extract it from the errrrr North Sea.

it’s all a massive grift. They’re stealing billions from the British Public.
Wave power is guaranteed, wind and solar are unreliable and even when they are producing , the unit price is set by the imported gas price.
Honestly I could weep for this country, god knows what will be left for future generations.

I shall be holidaying more and more in your lovely country as i have done the last 20 years in the motorhome, and less and less abroad, staycation I think is the way to go,
travel is going to get to expensive to go abroad.
