Corbyn would have probably run into grief. Fine idea to borrow for infrastructure etc when rates are low but the scope for debt needs to be available. if you want to know about debt since 2000 look here...

Plenty of time for thorium / modular versions to be sorted out. There is a demand hence the interest. Max charging rate can be a problem that needs battery cooling. The particular vehicle mentioned is rather niche. A modern 33tonne vehicle will use ~60L of diesel for a 200km range. You can...

An idea of UK intent The strategy will see a significant acceleration of nuclear, with an ambition of up to 24GW by 2050 to come from this safe, clean, and reliable source of power. This would represent up to around 25% of our projected electricity demand. Subject to technology readiness from...

Few are considering how much electrical power output will need to grow. This is some ways makes statements relating to current consumption pointless. Time to thorium - a lot of efforts are being put into it. The UK is being more conventional nuke station hence the cost. Sodium batteries -...

Strange that the actions that are unlawful in occupied territory never gets a mention via the US. However there was a settler withdrawal from Gaza that may well relate to them. What will happen in the West Bank though? West Bank recent days. A large group of Israeli police turn up at a...

It seems there has been an internal call to sack certain members of the Israeli cabinet due to the noises they make. Seems it's not a good idea if they are having US problems. I suspect in terms of the coalition not many would be left if this was done correctly.

Politics in general eg from the wiki Much of the essay is dedicated to a summary of purportedly scientific observations supporting the law, such as the increase in the number of employees at the Colonial Office while the British Empire declined (he showed that it had its greatest number of staff...

Well Biden has been clearer than usual. Go into Rafar and they wont support Israel. Defensive stuff only. That seemed to figure in the budget they recently came up with. Iron Dome missiles. The initial attack would have used up more than usual. The double talk by the defence secretary though -...

It's already been suggested that she wont be put forwards for Dover. And wow I am surprised that there is the beginnings of a media feast. I mean that never happens does it? Rumbles from the jungle as usual. Nothing clearly sourced. One odd aspect is that it indicates she thinks the Tory plan...

Because there are not enough nuke sources so comparing is pointless. These reactors are also thorium based. That may well make placement more flexible as they can be shut down easily. What happened to Rolls Royce sketches? It's a market that it would be well worth getting into. More JCB...

LOL I thought you were a sensible person. Maybe you don't really believe that. On the other hand politics and religion are often a bad mix. A lot depends on the stength of the religious beliefs. Politics is the skill of forming peoples opinions. That can make the mix even worse For some...

Corbin is too tainted and Abbot probably fits into wont tow the party line problem. That has often been a Labour problem. LOL seems to have spread to the Tory. Something that never really happened that often in the distant past. I think it's pretty obvious why they get more of it now - too much...

So you think they would refuse a defector? The latest one is a bit of an oddball in some ways but is extremely keen on housing. MP for Dover - boats and etc. Given various published utterings she has recently made about Labour the defection is rather surprising. She says down to housing policy...

Summarised by people being in a meeting with him along with a minister and wondering who was in charge. Also from various sources a short attention span. Opportunist - he was pro EU. Also seen by some as too Left to be a good Tory. Did a deal with the leave faction who are rather Right. The...

Given her opinions more like a spy. Defect for 4 months. Get ideas and return to the Tory.

Miller has had a long spout He usually says nothing when asked about Gaza This time he indicate the US has appled pressure, maybe more changes to weapon supplies. Also pointed out the obvious - an attack on Rafar will totally screw up aid deliveries. So far they are not happy with any of the...

The US have announced that they have paused a shipment of heavy weight munitions to Israel. Big bombs mentioned elsewhere and some mid weight ones. Some of the cash advance was said to refresh iron dome missiles. Odd as they are Israeli joint developed with India but there are signs that they...

Actually the video doesn't really shed much light on what was going on.

In some ways I think another 10 years Tory might be best. LOL They might have some useful new ideas while we deteriorate even further. Did you know that the IMF thinks who ever needs to make the social side aspects work correctly. Suppose it is a new world view. In the past they would say sell...

Maybe not good of me but that shot reminded me of a Ukraine village that welcomed the Russian in and then turned on them managing to kill a number. I thought thanks to the famous photo - oh no. Then Russians later go around looking for particular people.
