This is your daily reminder that America is not Britain’s friend and hasn’t been in a long time.
I’m sure the free markets will all compete heavily to keep providing us with the best quality at the lowest price whilst maintaining the highest possible level of service.
They’d certainly never try to use this an an excuse to “justify” anything right, right……..?

I wonder if i send an invoice to the White House with the additional costs occurred and make it look formal enough, there will be someone daft enough to pay it
Are we pivoting from blaming the tories now? Thanks guys I’m sure the next government will just blame Labour and nothing will change
Why are we calling this the Iran war?
This was the “Israeli/US surprise attack on Iran” war.
Remember the video from the opening strikes where “precision guided weapons” hit an all girls primary school?
@mods; I’m not trying to say Iran are the good guys or victims here, I’m pointing out that this was the latest proof that the USA shouldn’t be considered our ally.
Yaaay.
I know it’s not Labour’s fault, it’s the lack of forward thinking from previous governments on renewables.
Fuck America too btw.
Reeves is also not Brown. She’s out of her depth with a crisis of this level. The party want to spend they can not. Raising taxes won’t be enough, I’ll be expecting the money printers to be wound up soon.
Part of me hopes that the current generation of “old white rich men” who want to squeeze every last penny out of the planet will be the last, but I fear there are far too many already queing up who would happily see our planet ruined for the sake of a few more dollars in a billionaire’s pissing contest.
When you’re rich and you already have everything, what else is there to do except make more money? Trump’s net worth has risen some 5+ billion since he took office with this war no doubt set to earn him even more.
Donald did this.
Kemi and Nigel supported it and wanted us to join in.
Remember that before blaming Labour.
Significant impact on everyone’s economy thanks to a senile fool who the Yanks elected.
In the last decade I don’t think we’ve had a crisis free year.
Let’s take some hypotheticals here.
When trump bogs off and we return to free trade… Will the prices go down or are the high prices for everything the “new normal” and public get fleeced?.
After the Iran shit show.. Will energy prices go down? Or will it be the new normal and the public get fleeced while OPEC posts record profits?.
Will the BBC keep posting fluff pieces regarding high prices until we ignore the creep and becomes the new normal?.
Will wages continue to stagnate and the public expected to cut back even more. Young people waiting for their parents to die in order to get on property ladder the new normal?.
Can we all at least stop pretending that Cadburys mini-eggs at £5.50 is acceptable shit? Tehran knows our weakness for stupid tasteless chocolate.
BlackRock man warns of recession.
I am confident BlackRock will manage to continue to extract wealth with no consideration for anything other than shareholder enrichment.
So recession warning = “we’re going to fuck you over even harder”.
Just in time to eat up my recent pay rise. Nice. Cool. Great.
Here’s a fucking idea that would help everyone instantly. Set consumer electricity costs to the average cost of energy and not the maximum. Customers right now have their energy costs based on whatever the most expensive is fuel is – which is gas. 70% of our energy does not come from gas so why are we paying gas prices for the bits of our energy that are supplied by wind, or solar (or anything else because they’re all cheaper than gas).
Daily reminder that paying gas prices for _all_ electricity is fucking you all over and providing excess profits for lower-than-gas-price generators.
Skeletor will be back with more facts tomorrow.
