That comment is wrong - in 2008/09 the Labour Government launched the "Next Generation" plan for nuclear power, it was the debate after Fukushima that stalled things, under the ConDem coalition.

Weston Super Saint Posted 26 March, 2022 Share Posted 26 March, 2022 It's not fair, why aren't we instigating a no fly zone, we should be interferering etc etc : https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/saudi-air-defences-destroy-houthi-drones-state-tv-2022-03-25/ Quote RIYADH, March 26 (Reuters) - Yemen's Houthis said they launched attacks on Saudi energy facilities on Friday and the Saudi-led coalition said oil giant Aramco's petroleum products distribution station in Jeddah was hit, causing a fire in two storage tanks but no casualties. On another note, maybe this time Boris's incompetence and failure to get any assurances from the Saudis regarding oil supply hasn't worked out too badly given the lack of security of the product in the country.

"Civil servants have not been provided with help for legal costs and are being advised to pay any fines they receive, while senior staff and politicians have paid for private legal advice" Not that much of a surprise, although why they have only been issued £50 instead of the standard £100 is a mystery. I guess that's what happens when you make the local 'constable' judge, jury and executioner with all the power to decide who does and doesn't get fined....

badgerx16 Posted 7 April, 2022 Share Posted 7 April, 2022 2 items of interest on the news today; First, Rishi Sunak's wife is a 'non-dom' for tax purposes, but nobody knows where she actually does pay tax, ( if at all ). Second, Kwasi Kwateng says that in this country 'we do not impose infrastructure on people, it requires local consent'. So that rules out any chance of reopening the fracking wells. Good.

revolution saint Posted 12 April, 2022 Share Posted 12 April, 2022 It'll be interesting to see how he spins this. Up till now the only thing he's apologised for is giving the perception that he didn't follow the law, not that he actually did break it. I imagine he'll apologise with a smirk on his face and say he's far too busy raising the cost of living to consider resigning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 12 April, 2022 Share Posted 12 April, 2022 Compared with the blatant corruption swilling around the party, lying to parliament is pretty lightweight, but I guess the occupants of no.10 and no.11 being issued fines confirms this cabinet as the worst in living memory.

sadoldgit Posted 12 April, 2022 Share Posted 12 April, 2022 He not only has broken the law, he has broken one that he implemented. I think it is a given that he has to resign now but knowing what a brazen bastard he is no doubt he will try and tough it out. He has already prepared the ground by saying that he had been misadvised. Not that he held any moral high ground before, but how can he maintain his position now that he is a proven liar and law breaker? He has to go. Now.

igsey Posted 12 April, 2022 Share Posted 12 April, 2022 No chance Boris goes willingly, and the timing of this means Parliament is on a break until next week, by which time they will have done their best to come up with as many distractions as possible.

edprice1984 Posted 12 April, 2022 Share Posted 12 April, 2022 They both should go now of course, but this Conservative government and wider parliamentary party are as spineless as any I have ever seen. The wider party will need an electoral reason to get rid of him and if the opposition parties can hammer the point hard enough over the next three weeks, the local elections might just be that opportunity. Any new leader will then have two years to sort this out, most likely with the benefit of a recovering economy and the option to bring in a new Chancellor and reverse some of the tax rises Sunak has brought in (I personally don't think the tax rises are inherently wrong, we have to pay for the last two years somehow - just the timing, but he certainly hasn't helped himself with the Tax situation of his wife and even his own) In terms of replacements, I haven't got a clue. There aren't any immediate front runners that spring to mind, but if Sunak is being taken down too it may actually help the situation. Liz Truss is apparently in with a shout (I can't understand why), but I have repeatedly seen support for Penny Mordaunt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two years in and you still haven't grasped the following simple reality: - for most individuals the risk presented by Covid is low - for societies, the risk presented by huge waves of simultaneous covid is high. That is why "personal responsibility" or "its my choice" doesn't wash, unless you're a sociopath.
