But, as they are now discovering, it's not something they can control.

The Tories oversaw the degradation of UK gas storage capacity - 2010 to 2017.
Thatcher privatised the gas and oil industry - 1982 to 1986.
Thatcher closed the collieries - 1986 to 1991.
This woman is an idiot - 1960 to 2026
I truly hope not. The people arenโt responsible for the regime, sadly.

Given Trump's illegal war that is devastating the Middle East and pushing up energy bills, Keir Starmer should advise the King to call off Aprilโs state visit to the US.
A state visit should not be given to someone who repeatedly insults and damages our country.

The government is finally asking if they should ban cages for hens in the UK. ๐๐ Lobbyists are trying to block it, so we need huge numbers to show them that the public wants this ban NOW: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Imagine this. Itโs 2029. The General Election is a week away. And the UK feels strangely hopeful.
Not yet, but he just might have a limit, purely based on the Nobel peace prize fixation.

WAR CRIME BY THE US.
An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US.
The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship.
THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown.
This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.
