But only on renewable and nuclear power generators. Her paymasters in fossil fuels remain untouched. And working very hard on banning farmers from placing solar panels on their own private land - not to sell to the energy market , but to reduce their consumption. Parallel to this week's announcement that no energy saving information will be given because "we can't be telling people what to do" Meanwhile, those "climate emergency" protestors "Block ambulances" in central London. Hell in a fucking handbasket. Edited October 12, 2022 by scoobos 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 9009 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Forgive my ignorance, but you know when an MP makes a claim in the chambers? Is it against any rules for another MP to have a team of factcheckers, in a room somewhere, feeding them accurate information by phone or something?

Renton 17824 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Quote His [Bailey's] intervention saying that pension funds must sort themselves out by Friday was as logical as a doctor saying get better in three days or I will withdraw your drugs, which were working Quote The furthest right economic right wing in the form of Bailey is fighting the economic right wing in the form of Truss and Kwarteng today. No one else will get a look in. The idiots are in charge. It’s very hard to find anything optimistic in this scenario. Depressing thread here, a reminder that the Governor of the BoE is a stupid Brexiter cunt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34599 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 I don't know what mechanism they're going to employ, but they've got no choice but to get rid of her imo. She's been a catastrophe, and there's no upside to keeping her and an enormous downside for the country and the future existence of her party.

I don't buy Johnson will risk the humiliation of being unseated as a standing PM. Sunak or Mordaunt then? Talk about a poisoned chalice. Also surely they'd have to have a GE immediately?

Johnson was at least savvy enough to sideline Rees Mogg. This daft cunt has seen his performance this morning and still let him do Peston in the evening. There's nobody with a brain left.

Especially as 1922 would need to change the rules to make it even less democratic. Edited October 12, 2022 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s down to the same 64,000 zombies that chose the current useless cunt, it’ll be whoever ends up in the final two against Sunak. For obvious reasons. I doubt he’d run though, as they’re beyond redemption and it’d be political suicide for him if he somehow won the vote of his racist party members.

It'll save the economy from completely falling over and the fact it looks terrible will mean he's damaged goods with the electorate. Which is fine.
