Wind turbines do not suddenly become more expensive to operate when gas prices spike. Solar panels neither. Yet marginal pricing rule means that electricity generated by those sources is often priced as if it were produced by expensive gas. This creates very large windfall gains for some generators

Prime Minister Keir Starmer's recently announced cost of living policies take the phrase a "band aid for a bullet wound" to new heights

Brexit has been a disaster to Wales' economic resilience. We must re-join the Single Market and Customs Union to support Wales economy. Plaid Cymru will forge closer ties with our European neighbours. Vote Plaid Cymru on May 7

NEW: British billionaire convicted in US for failing to implement adequate money-laundering controls on his cryptocurrency business is funding political base in Westminster used by “anti-woke” & rightwing activists. Fascinating fr @sandralaville @ @rowenamason www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Reform UK risks breaching data protection laws with its competition to win free energy bills for a year, lawyers and data experts have warned www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

👏👏👏 No, Britain isn’t banning 67 dog breeds. Buckle up, today will be a double debunk; Firstly the headline and article, and secondly, the online claims sprouting from this article. Brilliant, as ever, from @monkemma.bsky.social westcountryvoices.co.uk/no-britain-i...

This is where Farage's Reform UK is holding its conference in Scotland tomorrow. "Ingliston holds family values at the heart of everything we do". When corporate "values" meet self interest.

We live in Rip Off Britain. We have to lower people's bills and tax wealth fairly. This morning I'll be starting to lay out our vision of how to do this. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Ryan: Hegseth has literally become more deranged than the SNL skits at this point. Each time he screws up, he gets more desperate—he screams louder. He is fucking pathetic. He has the blood of thirteen Americans on his hands, and he needs to be held accountable for that.

Why Nigel Farage is angry at pollsters as Reform’s support falls www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

The airspeed velocity checks out.

Thousands more taxpayers are moving to Scotland from the rest of the UK every year than leaving, a stark change which is boosting Scotland’s tax base by hundreds of millions of pounds

Nigel Farage has reportedly promoted neo-Nazi events and repeated extremist slogans in personal paid-for video messages online, while pocketing hundreds of pounds in doing so

“Dear Diary, Wow – what a busy day! We launched a scam to harvest people’s data by getting them to enter a draw, then Richard Tice tried to hypnotise everyone by repeating ‘energy treasure’ over and over until people believed our lies about North Sea oil and gas”

Jesus Christ this is becoming like the saddest Spanish telenovela ever He is making us seem so utterly pathetic on the world stage

General Sir Richard Shirreff: Trump is trapped in a doomed war. What should Britain do now? #TheNerve www.thenerve.news/p/general-si...

UK government’s support for oil-heated homes in Scotland falls far short, and has been painfully slow.   We are stepping in to more than double the UK Government's plan.    In an energy-rich nation, nobody should struggle to heat their home and the UK government must do more.

DH"SS" bought a warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia, for a new detention center. When the city asked them for information on needed water and sewage use, they refused to answer, so the city cut off the water and sewage and locked it down until they get a proper answer.

“The genius of democratic governance is that it recognizes no one person is smart enough to run a modern state alone,” Cash said. “Donald Trump disagrees, and appears to be absolutely confident that he, the ‘very stable genius,’ can do it all, alone.” zurl.co/TOai4

BREAKING: President Trump’s top counter-terrorism official has resigned over his opposition to the Iran War

Swalwell: "We have a 70-plus-year history of failure not just in Iran, but all over the world, of trying to force regime change. By the way, it's being led by a guy who has more plans for the ballroom he's trying to build than anything he's gonna do next in the Middle East."

Important data about Gorton & Denton from @bwalker.uk. 1. Only around 5% of Lab 2024 voters switched to Reform vs 36% to Greens. 2. No evidence of support for Reform among under 35s (sub 10%) - it's all over 55s 3. Progressives were undecided til last minute www.newstatesman.com/politics/pol...

Great news. Dartmoor is an ecological disaster zone masquerading as a National Park, as its ecosystems have been grazed out by sheep. Now this must change.

Today Reform UK Leader in Warwickshire, George Finch has a vote of no confidence set to be tabled against him after being found to be in breach of the council’s code of conduct. It’s staggering that he’s found himself in this position just months after becoming leader. Vote him out.

Iran is trolling Trump again. Hard. This is what happens when global politics becomes reality TV.

‘Trump is aiming for dictatorship’. That’s the verdict of the world’s most credible democracy watchdog | Martin Gelin

The BBC has broken the law by failing to give a 'substantive response' to a freedom of information request on calls that took place between its most senior figures and the Israeli Embassy

Deeply concerning. "Donald Trump has embarked on a war against Iran without a clear objective or plan. That he could so easily do so casts doubt on whether the US presidency faces any remaining constitutional check on its war-making powers."

youtu.be/PGvHUWYNyGM?... This formed part of the case from Liberation Scotland which they took to the UN to have 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿status recognised as a non self governing territory and not as an equal partner in a union. It is a fascinating history lesson which offers a glimpse into the false narrative from 1707.

As Poland's foreign minister notes, Trump's remarks to NATO are always hostile in tone and are predicated on an assumption that the US is not part of NATO. It's as if Vladimir Putin were speaking.

🚨 Starmer told his UK Labour Government to override devolution. And Labour in Wales? More interested in protecting their party than our democracy! 🤯 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Vote Plaid Cymru on 7 May for a government that will always stand up for Wales and our interests.
