Energy bills


One of my children appears to think that energy bills are something we can ignore. I did ask them if they wanted my to get them Truth Social so that they could read the words of Trump directly, but they declined. 
Needless to say, they said all the right things about how they feel Trump is wrong about Global Warming and how action is needed about Climate Change, but let us see it change begins at home. I need to get them to appreciate the issues with fuel poverty that are present now, and will worsen this winter.  

To be fair to Liz Truss, she has acted on this, though in a manner that benefits the energy companies, not the tax payer.  When I say acted, I mean stopping things from getting much worse, though things are going to still be bad for far too many people.

A Bridge to Crimea

The bridge connecting Russia to Crimea has been rendered inoperable. There is no doubt that was an act by Ukraine. While Russia considers this an act of terrorism, the bridge connecting Russia to Russian occupied Crimea was constructed without Ukrainian permission and is a legitimate military target. I just hope that they can ensure that it is not used at all!
