Great chart. Those countries that let price increase, adapted their consumption. Those that did not let it increase, did not adapt.
The cure for high prices is ... high prices.
RT @CGollier: Les pays qui ont laissé le prix du gaz payé par les ménages s'adapter à la crise sont ceux dans lesquels la consommation a baissé le plus.
Il faudrait remplacer le bouclier tarifaire sur le gaz par un chèque énergie élevé pour les ménages les p…
Pro-Kremlin Russians on all channels followed by @RALee85 asking questions and pointing fingers at the military leadership. Shows the huge damage inflicted to Putin's standing by Ukraine's succesful attack. Worth reading the thread (also for some schadenfreude).

The great Spanish writer Javier Marías has just passed away. He writes, wittily, lyrically, about time, about books, about the experience of being human. Some recommendations: "All Souls," "Tomorrow in the Battle Think on Me," "A Heart So White." RIP
RT @adam_tooze: Jubilation today over Ukraine's offensive success, but sustaining the Ukrainian war effort deep into the fall will only be possible if Kyiv can stabilize its economy and finances. Chartbook #149

Vuelta a casa.
Son estos seres humanos los que los supuestos "realistas" quieren sacrificar en altar de su divino derecho al aire acondicionado a 19 grados.

Now with the renewed attention in Ukraine, your reminder that YOU can help Ukraine attain freedom and peace with your support.
One way: If you are in New York, come next Saturday to the fundraiser of the Kyiv School of Economics!
RT @lugaricano: Are you in NY? Do you want to help Ukraine but do not know how?
Please attend the charity dinner and conference in NY organized by the @KSE_ua . There will also be an auction.

La exitosa contraofensiva Ucraniana en Jarkov muestra que, hoy, como en Febrero, el camino para conseguir la paz en Europa es ayudar a Ucrania a derrotar a Putin:
1) Dejar de una vez de enviarle Putin 10 mil millones de euros al mes
2) Dar a Ucrania todas las armas que necesita

RT @PhillipsPOBrien: This is Russian TV finally realizing the disaster Russian faces (with no answers of course). 2 minutes in, Mikhail Khodaryonok, the one analyst who spoke truthfully on Russian TV early in the war (and then had his knuckles rapped) explains the meaning of Kupiansk falling.
RT @JuanLuis_JG: El control de precios de supermercados no solo es una mala política. Además es ilegal.
Helping Ukraine massively, and stopping the flow of cash-for-oil to Putin has always been the best strategy, not just morally and politically, but also for Europe's economy. It is more obvious everyday.
Instead, we continue to have this insane dithering on oil and military aid.
RT @NeilPHauer: On top of everything else, these huge gains are a massive political coup for Ukraine. Shows their Western partners that Ukraine can win this…
Today, Bloomberg remembers the question the Queen asked me at the LSE during the financial crisis. I add for context a contemporary account and discussion of the episode by Alain Beatty in the @ft https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2022-09-09/what-s-happening-in-the-world-economy-how-uk-changed-under-queen-elizabeth-ii?cmpid=BBD090922_NEF&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&utm_term=220909&utm_campaign=nef
RT @PropertySpot: In 1992, the Queen addressed the European Parliament in Strasbourg in a speech which praised the European Union for realising Churchill’s vision of a united Europe. She wore a broach representing the 12 stars of the EU flag.

This is great news for Ukraine. Except for the ProPutin extreme right, strong support across all German parties (including the extreme left!) for Ukraine, in spite of the Energy Crisis. h/t @PhillipsPOBrien
RT @marceldirsus: New poll: 70% of Germans want to keep supporting Ukraine despite high energy prices. Support for Ukraine is highest among supporters of the Greens (97%) and lowest on the far-right (30%).
@COdendahl In Spain, no discussion: Carlos III.
General Ryan has been objective and well informed throughout the conflict. His thread analyzing the stunning developments we are seeing in Ukraine is worth reading.
RT @WarintheFuture: Throughout the Russian invasion of #Ukraine, I have watched and written about Russian #strategy in the war. In this thread, given ongoing Ukrainian offensives, I examine whether Russia has ceded the initiative to Ukraine. 1/25 🧵
Liberación de Balakliya. Emocionante! Asombrosos avances ucranianos!

I challenge you to see this announcement by Huw Edwards with dry eyes. Amazing, how touching her passing is to all of us.
RT @scottygb: Here is the moment Huw Edwards on BBC One announced the death of HM The Queen.
Fin de una era. Descanse en Paz.
RT @RoyalFamily: The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.
The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
