Would more North Sea drilling mean lower energy prices for UK consumers? (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Kemi Badenoch claims increased UK oil and gas production would cut bills by £200, but critics say plan won't workOil prices hit $100 a barrel soon after the US and Israel launched their attack on Iran, and though prices have wobbled since, ongoing supply issues from the partial closure of the strait of Hormuz mean they could leap higher, to $150 a barrel or more, by some estimates.The impacts could be severe – not just increases in the price of petrol, and oil for home heating, but also in the cost of gas, with knock-on inflationary pressures on food, consumer goods and industrial components.

Starmer′s ′five-point plan′ was not a plan | Nils Pratley (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Two of the points were measures on energy bills from the autumn budget, another restated the existing energy strategy“We have a five-point plan for the immediate crisis,” declared the prime minister during his remarks from Downing Street on Wednesday. Really? Two of his five points were measures on energy bills that pre-date the Iran war. One was a description of support for a sub-set of consumers but dodged the key question of who else could get help. Another stated the government's longstanding energy strategy in unchanged terms. The last was a diplomatic policy, presumably shoe-horned into the cost-of-living passage because a five-point plan sounds better than a four-point one.Let's take them in order. First: “We're cutting energy bills by over £100 per household today.” That, very obviously, is not a response to “the immediate crisis.” Continue reading......

Trump May Pull Out Of 'Paper Tiger' NATO After Starmer Stiffs Strait Support
In a blistering exclusive interview with The Telegraph, President Trump has declared he is "strongly considering" pulling the United States out of NATO, branding the 77-year-old alliance a "paper tiger" after European allies - including the UK under Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer - refused to join America's military campaign against Iran or help reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump told the newspaper the decision was now “beyond reconsideration,” adding: “I was never swayed by Nato. I always knew they were a paper tiger, and Putin knows that too, by the way.” He singled out Britain, mocking its naval capabilities and Starmer's green-energy focus: “You don't even have a navy. You're too old and had aircraft carriers that didn't work… All Starmer wants is costly windmills that are driving your energy prices through the roof.”
The row erupted after Iran effectively closed the Stra...
