@twose_brian I'm sure they are, but they'd be doing a whole lot more of it if R&D funds had been focused on renewables and storage solutions instead of out of date nonsense like fracking, and fantasies about carbon capture or nuclear fusion. #unicorns again.

Say it loud and clear.
PS you can have all this *and support for the unions and for higher wages for workers* with the @TheGreenParty
RT @GreenpeaceUK: Solar and wind are nine times cheaper than gas AND will:

Create jobs✅
Lower bills ✅
Cut emissions✅
Break our dependence on gas markets and fossil fuel autocrats✅✅

RT @jonlis1: Truss and Kwarteng’s redistribution of wealth from the poorest to richest is not only politically incoherent, economically ruinous and morally obscene, it is also at direct odds, both in spirit and letter, to the prospectus of levelling-up which put the Tories in power. The end.

@ChrisJHutch74 Oh I think many did see it. The fascists are the people who were using him as their popular figure-head, because he was a useful tool for them. But then they found he got in the way of their desire to deliver the ERG project (which he'd only joined for fun before Brexit).

It's widely known that if you want to stimulate the economy at home, to restore business confidence and generate turnover, you need to put money in the pockets of the least well off, whose poverty drives recession. It's useless to make them poorer and give money to the rich.

We now see why they got rid of Boris Johnson, because he was a liar but he also didn't want to do this kind of damage to the country on behalf of the disaster capitalists. Surely some Tory MPs must decide to desert this disgraceful government and resign the whip?

RT @CarolineLucas: Govt attacking people on benefits at time of acute poverty & foodbanks, legislating against working people who stick up for themselves thro a union, whilst green-lighting grotesque banker bonuses & corporation tax increase scrapped
This #MiniBudget is nasty, cruel & regressive

RT @martin_farley: Tory budget slaughtered by the markets

£ down 3% against basket of currencies, making imports more expensive
UK bond yields shoot up to over 4%, making gov't borrowing more expensive, with expectation that it will DOUBLE over the next year

Trusseconomics over before it began

RT @DavidRobjant: ALL your energy needs are priced in dollars.

This budget has therefore put your bills up by 2% just in the time since the Chancellor opened his stupid mouth. How much by teatime?

RT @zoenicholson4: And so it begins. This isn’t about supporting people back into work, it’s about penalising those with the least. Women on the lowest incomes work part time to look after their kids, or their grandkids because childcare is not affordable. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/sep/21/kwasi-kwarteng-to-shrink-part-time-work-benefits-to-grow-labour-supply?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

There are ways of making work worthwhile and rewarding so you don't need to have sanctions to force unwilling people to take horrible jobs.
Just saying.
Hint:
@TheGreenParty has a whole suite of better solutions.

RT @CarolineLucas: Govt has published their “Brexit Freedoms Bill” today, on what it sees as “benefits of Brexit”. Means scrapped habitat regs, weaker environmental protections, lower food standards, & deregulation, to the rest of us. Hugely concerning & profoundly shameful from @Jacob_Rees_Mogg

RT @bullshitjobs: I quit my job 20 years ago. I have not played along ever since. No employment. Except for 4-5 month. No stress. No alarm bells. And I genuinely do not understand how people are still rationalizing "9-5 for everyone". When it's unnecessary, wasting our lives and destroying Earth.
