A lot of that will come from the £90K+ consultants' salaries though.......not to mention the even better paid Management staff.

Somebody has to pay for all those diversity managers and trans support people. Not to mention all the translators.

They're all back to my door, asking me to switch. Bring back the pandemic.

Martin Lewis explained very clearly on Spectator TV that the higher prices not fully impacted yet due to the way the cap is calculated and the period in which it is done.

The free market is OK until companies with cr@p business plans are allowed to suck in customers with offers that are clearly too good to be true

France has a glut of energy as they have nuclear power plants. Didn't listen to the doom mongers and CND types and now because we did we are fecked.
The minority won again, which seems to be an ongoing issue in the UK. I'm pissed off that my voice is never heard.

Many in the Green movement have in the past been strong advocates of nuclear energy. The cost of nuclear energy is, however, very high and getting higher. I doubt that many nuclear power stations built to traditional designs will be built in the coming decades as they are no longer economic. New small fission designs might have some use and there is still the promise that nuclear fusion will arrive soon (don’t hold your breath).

France’s investment in energy generation over the past 40 years was driven by precisely the ideas that have been discussed. At the time that Thatcher was selling off anything and everything and leaving it all to market forces, France was building infrastructure and energy security.

If you look at the cost projections it is clear that solar energy is already the cheapest for energy generation globally and it is rapidly getting cheaper. Wind power is very close behind.

The CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament) is an organisation advocating muscular disarmament, the clue is in the name. Nothing to do with nuclear energy.

Oh baby, if and when that happens everything changes.

It's never going to happen at a cost that will make the energy generated economic. Maybe in 100 years on Mars

Muscular disarmament? Sounds like they’ve had it in for Connor Wickham.

If you look into the past many comments about future technologies said stuff like this.
