8. UK tax on North Sea fossil fuels is tiny compared to countries like Norway, removing the incentive to re-invest. We need very high taxes, with tax rebates for investment in renewables only (not more fossil fuels) - forcing FF companies to transition.

4. UK Govt killed the solar market by prematurely removing subsidies, causing mass lay-offs, and destroying strong exponential growth in an incredibly cheap, clean form of energy.

More dire warnings about the state of the UK economy.
It didn’t have to be this way.
The Tories have run down our economy and public services - and we are all paying the price. https://twitter.com/tmorrowspapers/status/1610023602514010113

Scrooge would be proud. This winter 1000s face getting cut off from heating and electricity because their energy suppliers has forced them onto pre-payment metres. Sign now to tell companies to stop this awful practice. #BanForcedPPMs

For those who don't fully understand what is up with the NHS, here is a thread for you that might help.
I'm a consultant physician working as a doctor in the NHS in Yorkshire and Wales for 32 years now. I have experienced the NHS at its best (2008) and its worst (2022).

Tweeps, the expert WhatsApp groups are kicking off. Kraken (XBB.1.5) is a variant of SARS-CoV-2 that you wouldn't want to catch. Cases are rising. It's time to ratchet up precautions. High-quality, close-fitting masks work. Avoiding crowds helps. Being outdoors helps. Stay safe.

I also invited politicians to spend a shift with a paramedic in a car park, nurse 3-4 times more patients than is safe in an ED corridor, or stand with us as we make those dreaded waiting room announcements to our worried patients. Prepare for the rush. https://apple.news/A1AiLDPY3QEi0BX67LtmGiw

I cannot understand how any politician of any party is standing by right now and allowing NHS patients to die.
This is the stark reality of what is happening right now.

Trying to defend his bonus @JamesBevanEA told EA staff "I think [i] do [a] tough job, and do experience some stresses and strains that no one else has to carry".
I suspect nothing like the stress of standing in the queue at a food bank.
