On pubs/pints/energy - more media scaremongering.
Typical pub annual turnover - £500,000
Typical gross margin on beer - 50%
Likely energy cost increase - £5000/month
So to cover, turnover must increase by £120,000 or 24%
If beer is £5/pint - would need to be £6.20.
NOT £20!!!

Lovely to see the PM pleased with her achievement. The little smile made that clear. @liztruss should be pleased. She will be a great PM.
People underestimate her at their peril.
RT @BBCNews: “We will transform Britain into an aspiration nation”
New Prime Minister Liz Truss promises to “take action this day and every day” to deliver high paying jobs, safe streets and opportunities

Interesting - but at the moment @trussliz was pronounced leader the pound started appreciating against the Euro.

Delighted to be celebrating the magnificent victory this evening.
Tonight we rejoice.
Tomorrow we fight to get our country back on track.
We have chosen the right leader to succeed. @trussliz

Good luck @trussliz
Here’s to Vic-Tory today
And a long and successful tenure in No.10 beyond.

Interesting piece by Lawson in The Times today. Read the highlighted para.
@trussliz must proceed with fracking urgently and we don’t have time to debate it in local communities.
Let’s just ensure those living within sight or sound of a fracking well have free energy.

Good question from you Howard
RT @HowardCCox: Good meeting and listening to Lord @DavidGHFrost at a vote for Liz event @trussliz run by @LanceForman - His Lordship is indeed talking well on issues supported by @FairFuelUK and @CAR26_ORG supporters

Gosh the Times is really pissing me off this morning. Third nonsense headline!
“Millions left destitute by ‘climate catastrophe’ floods”.
It’s the bloody monsoon season. It happens every year. 2010 was worse than this year.
The climate always changes.

Another anti Truss headline in the Times. They quote economist Paul Johnson, who was economic adviser to the Government under Blair/Brown and completely missed the dot-com bubble and 2008 crash, and also the Resolution Foundation who are suggesting we raise income tax now! 🙄

Today’s Times headline shows a lack of understanding. Energyy companies who supply us directly make small profits - limited to 2% by OFGEM. It’s the producers who are making the money. We can’t nationalise Qatar or Saudi Arabia!

Excellent article by Lord Sumption how scare tactics were used to get us to lockdown during Covid causing untold disaster to our economy, health and education
The fact is - the exact same tactics are used globally on climate change and Net Zero policy.
It’s time to reject them!

This is worth watching in full. The meteorologist was owned by Lois Perry. Really interesting to see and hear the feedback from callers/viewers.
RT @CAR26_ORG: .@LoisPerry26 was interviewed by @petercardwell on @TalkTV today.
Lois said: 'I do not believe that man-made Climate Change is a thing'.
'It's ridiculous'.

Watch to the end of this video to see the man claim responsibility for making you poorer! Quite extraordinary.
RT @LanceForman: These people should hang their heads in shame. ⬇️
They complain about people needing food banks. It’s through their deranged ideas that people will be forced to food banks.

Thanks for the advice Nadhim. People tend to be careful with their own cash - a whole lot more careful than when they spend other peoples’ money.
So can I politely suggest the Gov cut back on its wasteful spending - like diversity officers in NHS, like HS2, NetZero compliance.

RT @Channel4News: "I'm very proud that you're looking at the person who basically stopped the fracking industry in this country."
Former climate change secretary Sir Ed Davey and fellow Lib Dem leadership hopeful Jo Swinson say they would ban fracking.

The table below shows how we use our energy in UK.
Heating homes uses only 21% of the total, so talk about insulating our homes to solve the energy crisis is nonsense. It will make a difference at the margin but that’s it.
There is no shortage of fuel - it’s under our feet!
