Welcome back Wayne
The incentive is to do what’s right for the country, not worry about bleeding elections. Blair, Brown and Cameron should all be strung up for their failure to ensure energy security. The U.K. has everything it needs to be self sufficient in energy, and successive governments have ducked the important decisions, and played the ‘green card’ …..

Labour set up feasibility schemes and the early design process for 4 new reactor sites at the same time as they established the NDA back in 2004.
As for the highlighted section, well of course it is. But politicians want credit now. Not in 20 years. Otherwise they won't get re-elected. It doesn't help that nuclear sites need to be far away from large population centers with access to massive amounts of water. No votes on the rural coastline.
…I think revelations about his wife’s tax dodging & his US Green Card were his undoing. Even by Conservative standards the realisation that he is Super Rich and not paying their full worth was the end. I can see him leaving British politics.
He would have left already if he didn’t think there was a strong chance she won’t be here long

Just for @Joey66 , he is very much suggesting that all of you Tory voters will die off in the cold snap and we'll be saved.

No, actually I was referring to harsh bills.
This cap will do little to help those that NEED help, and will just be a huge debt we all have to pay off in the long term. If/when wholesale prices fall, our bills will stay artificially higher in order to pay off this loan that Truss has devised. It's really short-sighted.

If you mean weather forecasts, I don't think we need to worry excessively in that regard. Every year the MSM trot out the doom-mongering headlines about how we're all going to be engulfed by 30ft snowdrifts and plunged into temperatures of minus 20c... but in the last ten years we've had what, the six or seven mildest winters since records began? Equally people will still need to turn their heating on, even if we all disagree slightly about the point at which we feel it's "needed" in our own homes.
The trend is very much moving towards dangerously hot summers, autumn being wet and warm, winter being wet rather than genuinely cold, and spring being the only really pleasant, temperate season. In fact, I do wonder if part of the reason the energy firms are hiking the prices so much is because of uasage trends over the last ten winters being in decline - no idea if true, just a theory.
